Just Applied For A Place In A Diploma of Commercial Arts / Diploma of Visual Communication (Graphic Design)

August 27, 2010 By Paul Yeatman

I officially applied for entry into a Diploma of Commercial Arts / Diploma of Visual Communication (Graphic Design) today. I rocked on up to the college with a portfolio containing work dating from when I was 14, right up to the present and several questions.

My collection of 10 works demonstrated some graphics and art work, some model making, my cycling club’s website (for which I am the webmaster), some random body part sketches, an idea for a gothic tunic and a t-shirt design. Apparently this was all quite impressive as most people rock up with little in the way of prepared materials.
