Hello Anushka
Be thoughtful about what you include.
Select only your strongest pieces.
Showcase your most unique and creative work.
Decide on how many pieces to include.
Go high-resolution and variations
Make sure the pieces flow nicely from one to the next.
Snap a pic and make it interesting.
Get Some street cred with close ups
Showcase your design process
Don’t use flash or animation in your online portfolio.
Get some other's opinion
Review, add, delete, repeat.
And one more thing, do not search for Virat kohli(Just joking)
All the best!!

Thank you for your valuable opinion. But I would like to ask that in this modern time of technology and going techy, can I go with handmade presentations instead of going on visual representation? I really want to show some original handwork. It wouldn't look cliche, right?

See, you can have an amalgam of both. Yes, the technology is booming with exponential pace so to cope up with the pace you have to be updated, ex :- Falling of Nokia and various other companies as they din't match the tangent with the teechnology.Another example, Apple. They also kept their core with their age old ios but they also changed it time to time, updated it time to time so as to compete in the market.See The digital world has an obvious advantage that can’t be ignored: speed and convenience. In a nutshell that is the value we immediately associate with all things digital and what we desire from it the most. Digital allows designers to sell themselves in the marketplace at all times.So, what's the solution, well you can opt for Hybrid solution. The only winners or losers in a battle between print and digital are the designer and the decision maker.
Hahahaha, the Kohli's statement was made on your name(humorously) , no offence :') All the best Anushka and if you face any doubt you can comment down. Btw high five on being a MSD fan. :).
And yeah one more thing, it's nowhere mentioned that we need a portfolio. I am just too confused whether to make it or not as many are saying that it's not needed!
I am sorry Anushka but I didn't get you last comment, could you please explain me on what context it is??
Actually, I have searched many sites and they say that it is not mentioned that we have to present a portfolio. Moreover, it is stated that portfolio presentation was discarded back in, 2016. Do you have any idea about this?
I don't have much idea about this but would like to have. If you don't mind, could you please share the website link so that i can also have a look.

Some have mentioned, it nowhere written that there will be interview/portfolio round for B.Des. But it would be beneficial and preferred to have something for portfolio, in case if they asked for, anything like drawing/sculptures/scripts/cartoons. One girl has mentioned that it is a boon to have a portfolio round as it depicts the creativity of any student. What are your views on this??
Yeah it seems a plus point to make a portfolio. But it would be a total waste of energy and hardwork if they don't consider it
This time you are totally mistaken. Hard work and gained knowledge never goes in vain. So what if they don't ask for, you have gained one new thing and it will be with you in longevity.So, never hesitate to learn new thing. Btw msd was on fire today.
I see you are right!
Let's hope for the best
(I got no chill tomorrow is my jee so I wasn't able to watch the match. But if you say so, msd is always on fire!!)

Ohhooo, that's huge. All the best for tomorrow's exam. So you are also a engineering cum designing cum engineering type student. Actually i didn't know that tomorrow is JEE Mains, otherwise i would not have disturbed you with my comments whole day.All the best again and Talk to you tomorrow.
No no no no no. I am designing cum designing cum forced engineering aspirant. I am all ready for tomorrow. Thank you
Hahahaha, it's a bit funny and at the sametime sad too as to be a part of "forced" bandwagon. But that's how World goes on.
Yes it is a bit disappointing in our system. You know people want to decide what another person has to do his /her all life
But you can Retaliate ( considering the consequences).
Let's see where it all takes me. I am trying my best to get into a college good enough so that it settles the matter that I couldn't work out for JEE. I appeared for uceed this year and I am really pleased with my marks and rank. So, I don't know what comes next
See, if you did well in your uceed then it's awesome because forced Engineering is as same as s(e)x without consent.I think most of the IIT's also offers Designing course.
I just got to this amazing site not long ago. I was actually captured with the piece of resources you have got here. Big thumbs up for making such wonderful [url=https://www.webtechcoupons.com/offers/godaddy-renewal-coupons]Godaddy Renewal coupon codes[/url] blog page!
