The Survival Guide to Creating a Portfolio

Play Video

We are thrilled to produce this humorous university video for Miami University’s Art Department. We specialize in taking large volumes of information and creating a concept that will bring it to life. We then write highly engaging and funny script that will engage a young target audience and motivate them to action. 

The primary goal of this film was to demonstrate that creating a “digital” art portfolio was not as difficult as a student may think. We used over-the-top humor to put the students at ease while our amazing actress described and demonstrated to students what each phase of the digital art portfolio meant. She then went on to show the wrong way and the right way to fulfill an art departments requirements in a fun and sassy manner.

The video relays a lot of technical information on numerous topics in a visually engaging, fun, and sassy manner that will give students the confidence to complete an application to Miami University.
