Congrats on getting onto the foundation course ! I did the diagnostic art foundation last year and now I’m doing textiles ba at CSM ! Hope it’s not too bad being online lol, good luck with interviews !
Becky May omg wait do u have instagram or any other app i can talk to u about portfolio advise as i also want to apply for graphic communication design this yr
hello, thanks for great explanations of your portfolio, i have a few questions to ask: 1. do we have to show research with explanations and inspiration in every work of art and design we make, or is it ok to show them in some ones and not in other ones? 2. should i annotate and explain what message the painting and drawing conveys in portfolio, or should i let the painting speak itself, what did you do, did you annotate that? 3. did you provide links to galleries and websites in portfolio, if i did get inspiration from the world around me and experiences i had what should i do, as i do not have any inspiration from specific webs and books.
Hey, thank you so much for making this vid! It really helped me to know more about what all things should be added in portfolios. Also, one question... did you apply for fashion degree at ual?
Hi! Yes I’m currently doing fashion styling and production at LCF! But this video is showing the portfolio I created for the foundation course at central Saint martins
Hi! I was just looking through portfolio videos for inspiration... yours is so amazing!! I am applying to UAL for next Fall and I really want to get into Central Saint Martins but I am soo not traditionally artistic so I'm scared to even submit my portfolio. Do you think a portfolio of fashion illustration and construction and some graphic art is enough?? Thank you!!!
@@kathighfield Hi Kay, hope you wouldn’t mind asking you questions.. Do you have an idea of what they are looking for about Fashion portfolio ? I don’t think she applied for fashion
This video was so so helpful, thank you so much. I was wondering how you included research btw? Cos mine looks so different so I'm a little worried about that haha
So by research they mean research of materials! So experimentation counts as research! So using different types of mediums within a project to try and find what works better for your final piece is “research”
Kskskssk menina eu tava super focada na sua explicação e pá, aí do nada vc fala sobre a árvore que só tem aqui no Brasil, eu tive um bug enorme skkssksk aí eu fui no teu 1° vídeo e vi q vc é Br, aí ai. só isso msm... Skssksksk 🤡
Hi! I'm applying to CSM this year and i'm preparing my portfolio at the moment but they've asked for 30 pages, I was just wondering if this was everything you put in or if you had not inluded some bits in the video? Love your portfolio though it helped so much!
i'm applying this year too and they told me it used to be 20 pages for a mini portfolio but it is 30 now because of corona or something? good luck on your app!!
@@kc2513 (i dont know if u r replying to me or not HAHA but) i'll be applying as home student for foundation year, its probably different for different courses? idk, uk stuff is very confusing to me
@@CynthiaBoyce it's "no more than 30 images"- so this implies that you can submit less than 30! (right??) but also yes probably different for each course so just check the requirements.
@@jayiwong5225 im so STRESSED im trying to finish everything up the night before its due HAHA also i hate how there isnt a clear limit for how many words is too many for the description area? i feel like i am writing too much :') smh my head
The online portfolio tool is so frustrating because it hinders you to only 45 Images or videos :( I have so much more and am so stuck on what to do haha
Parabéns!! ^^ achei lindos os trabalhos, seria interessante fazer um vídeo explicando como estudou bastante ds anatomia quais sites usou (alguns conselhos), além daquele que citou se tiver outros a recomendar seria interessante, gostei do vídeo foi muito bom ^^
loved your video, it was so helpful, just a question, did you send just the portfolio or like a video explaining, cause i noted that there isn’t like a little text explaining, just don’t need to have or you explained to them in another way?? thanks!!
Hi! Sorry for the late reply! So basically UAL has there own website platform to upload your portfolio pages (so these slides that I show in the video). I uploaded each one individually and then they give you a text box underneath the page to explain your work!
Oh meu deus!!! Eu candidatei-me para Camberwell também na UAL este ano e estava exatamente na mesma situação de pesquisar portfólios e não encontrar nada para universidades no UK, por isso ainda bem que já começam a haver alguns vídeos! Também me aconteceu ser aceite sem ter de fazer a entrevista o que achei estranho, maaas eles lá sabem! Anyways, boa sorte para o ano! ;)
Hi! Sorry for the late reply! but I would check out the page Croquis Cafe on Vimeo! they have lots of different models posing in real time that you can draw from!
Hi! Yes you can but it depends on what course you’re applying to as some require the foundation course! You’d have to check the entry requirements page for the courses you’re interested in!💗
Hi!! I only applied to one BA course at CSM which was fashion communication and promotion which required the foundation course to apply!💗 this was my portfolio for the CSM foundation course
how did you format/plan your digital portfolio? did you make a blog? or a powerpoint? or just upload photographs of your work directly to their portal? I'm not sure how to create each 'slide'. Thanks
Hi!! Just a question if you do a foundation year at UAL then you have more chances to enter as an undergraduate? Or you can apply directly to an undergraduate course?
I am actually planning on applying to UAL this year but from whatever knowledge I have gained so far I think UK colleges, in specific UAL requires a good amount of other works like sketchbooks and stuff besides the 15-20 works right??
Hi!💗 no it’s just the 15-20 pieces which are actually just the number of slides! Doesn’t need to be 15-20 different art pieces! And then you have to carefully select what u want to show in these 15-20 pages! You can choose to show sketchbook if you would like which is what I did as well!
Hi! Thank you for the wonderful video and the tips! That helped a lot! What major did you apply for, by the way? Also, I wanna know if i can change my major after the foundation course ! Cuz im not sure whether to study fashion design or product design..
Hi! So I'm currently doing fashion styling and production! I started off doing the diagnostic pathway during foundation at CSM and then decided on my course afterwards! So don't worry about that! They're also super supportive :)
thanks!! I also wonder if this portfolio was used to apply for BA or for foundation course! And i love ur works, especially the roots project!! 🤍 hope to see u at csm!!
Michael Vaughn hi!! Sorry I’m not from the US and so I have no idea on how pell grants would work! You should probably directly contact UAL to get more information on that!
I am also a student from the states that was accepted into CSM this year. I wasn't called for an interview. Maybe it has something to do with being international...?
Hi! It depends on the course! So for foundation it was 10-20 pages, and for my degree course it was up to 30 pages as per the portfolio requirements! And then for each page you can put as many as you want as long as theyre related to the same theme but I would put a max of 2 or 3
Hii, I am from Argentina and I would like to apply to the Foundation as well. My question is, did you build the portfolio on your own? I have to build it on my own.? Also did you do any online short course foundation portfolio preparation? I dont know if they are worth it. Thank you so muchhhhh
Hi! Sorry for the late reply! Yes I built it on my own and I didn’t do the portfolio preparation course! I just created it on what I felt made sense for me and what pieces best showcased myself as a creative!
I went for the diagnostic pathway as I was unsure of what I wanted to do. But after the first term you specialise (e.g I went into fashion communication)
Hi! I'm not sure but I believe you can! Although I know you need school certification e.g you might need to have completed GCSE's. But if I were you I would get in contact with them or check our all of the requirements on the foundation course page!
I'm not on Instagram so I'm telling my query her... We don't have a diploma course in our school for fine arts and so that is a big problem for me... And I specialise in landscape of oil pastel and soft pastel... I'm learning body figures for fashion designing and I've got many ideas for some dresses in women's wear..... I am learning lettering and doodling... I'm not much in 3D art but I do know photography... So I wanted to ask if these many things will help or not for my portfolio 😁😁
Hii! I live in Dubai too and I am looking for private portfolio guidance from someone like you who has gone through the whole process and been accepted Would you be open to guiding UAL aspirants? And where can I take graphic designing classes?
I was going to apply for a BA but I just love every area of art and want to try out everything before going into a specific course, so I chose to do the foundation! :)
@@luisafmbarros That's awesome! I had a few questions after looking over their website though. For the 20 pages mini portfolio did you organize it in independent projects or just random selection of best works? Is it any different from the full portfolio? Thanks :D
Seleee hii!! So yeah the order I show it in the video is the order that I sent it to them in! I basically showed work that I’m proud of and that has a variety of media! I grouped them by projects, so for example the first 2 pages are one project ( I start out with the final result and then later show experimentation within the same project on a different page), and then I keep doing that with the rest! I would say it’s the same thing as the full portfolio but just more selective with the pieces you show!
UAL is my dream- congrats!!☺️
Amber Francesca thank you so much!!❤️
Same
Go for it! I completed my degree at UAL and now doing my masters at UAL (LCC Campus!) honestly best decision of my life.
@@abichapman7986 lcc is where i wanna go hopefully! whats it like studying there and what was your courses if you don't mind me asking?
Congrats on getting in! I also got in and I fully agree with the searching for videos lol I did the same thing for hours

Does foundation year needs a PORTIFOLIO??

The online portfolio tool is so frustrating because it hinders you to only 45 Images or videos :( I have so much more and am so stuck on what to do haha
Hi did you do an art degree before this? or was this all just for the application
Thanks!
gymnasticsluvr96 hi!! No I didn’t do an art degree, this was all mainly school and personal work! :)
Parabéns!! ^^ achei lindos os trabalhos, seria interessante fazer um vídeo explicando como estudou bastante ds anatomia quais sites usou (alguns conselhos), além daquele que citou se tiver outros a recomendar seria interessante, gostei do vídeo foi muito bom ^^

hey amazing portfolio!! I had a doubt from where can I get the reference for the observational figures drawing??
Hey r u making a portfolio rn? I’m just about to start idk wtf to do I’m scared man
Hi! Sorry for the late reply! but I would check out the page Croquis Cafe on Vimeo! they have lots of different models posing in real time that you can draw from!
@@luisafmbarros thank you I'll check it out!
Did you send this portfolio digitally to them as a PDF?They don't specify what to send the foundation diploma on.
Also can you apply for ba without a foundation? xx Thanks in the advance. Your tree piece was gorgeous
Hi! Yes you can but it depends on what course you’re applying to as some require the foundation course! You’d have to check the entry requirements page for the courses you’re interested in!💗
15:54 how did u do the templates? I'm unsure if i do them on an app like pro create or something
Yes I used procreate! But you can use microsoft PowerPoint, indesign, anything you feel comfortable with!
hey lovely, did you have to do a foundation before applying to the BA at CSM? Your art was stunning btw omg
Hi!! I only applied to one BA course at CSM which was fashion communication and promotion which required the foundation course to apply!💗 this was my portfolio for the CSM foundation course
@@luisafmbarros ty for replying^ ^Good luck in applying for the BA course although u probs won’t need it!
UAL is my dream 😔 but I didn’t got this year
Thank you so much your video is so helpful🥺❤❤❤
how did you format/plan your digital portfolio? did you make a blog? or a powerpoint? or just upload photographs of your work directly to their portal? I'm not sure how to create each 'slide'. Thanks
Hi! Sorry for the late reply! But I did it using procreate on my ipad! Otherwise its super fine to use powerpoint!
Hey! You portfolio is really great! Are you an international student? if so, did you get a scholarship?
Ulyana Morozova hi!! Thank you!! Yes I’m an international student, but didn’t get a scholarship!
Lollll . I’m on the wrong video I though it said central saint michaels 🤦🏽♀️🤣I was wondering what people where on about
😂😂😂😂
I loved all the art pieces! They are amazing !!! But why did you quit architecture in uniii ???
Thank you!!💗 and it just really just wasn’t for me! I found that I even though I like architecture, I don’t like DOING it you know
Vc pode falar sobre notas tipo se eles levam muito em conta ou não por favor
Hey! Love your work! Did you apply to any other universities besides UAL?
Hii!! Noo I didn’t! I only wanted UAL haha :):)
Hi!! Just a question if you do a foundation year at UAL then you have more chances to enter as an undergraduate? Or you can apply directly to an undergraduate course?

This was so helpful thank you 😊
Is this for the foundation course or the BA program??
GID_2 this is for the foundation course :)
what were the programmes you used to make your digital nude drawings and architecture drawings?
Hi! The architecture drawings were on AutoCad, and the drawings were on procreate!
Hi! Thank you for the wonderful video and the tips! That helped a lot!
What major did you apply for, by the way?
Also, I wanna know if i can change my major after the foundation course ! Cuz im not sure whether to study fashion design or product design..
Hi! So I'm currently doing fashion styling and production! I started off doing the diagnostic pathway during foundation at CSM and then decided on my course afterwards! So don't worry about that! They're also super supportive :)

And i love ur works, especially the roots project!! 🤍 hope to see u at csm!!
Nice! To what course did you apply? Thxs
I applied to the foundation diagnostic course!! :)
What was the academic requirement to go into UAL?
It’s quite low I believe and it’s also a guideline as they only care about portfolio
Oi Luisa, tudo?
Você cursou graduação ou pos graduação?
Parabéns pelo portfolio,, bjs
Oi Beatriz! Cursei graduação mesmo!
Hey love your portfolio! Did you apply for foundation or undergrad?
This was my portfolio for the foundation at CSM but I am currently doing the Bachelor course at UAL
I’m from video where you surprising your boyfriend 😻 You are guys cuties
how many slides of your portfolio did you submit or is there not a limit?
Gorgeous! what major did u applied for??
what course are you taking?
And thanks for the video 😘😘
Hi I’m just wondering after you submitted your portfolio, how long until you got a email regarding interviews
What route did you choose for financing? I’m unsure if our pell grant in America is accepted in the UK.
Michael Vaughn hi!! Sorry I’m not from the US and so I have no idea on how pell grants would work! You should probably directly contact UAL to get more information on that!
What a levels did you do?
What course are you doing?
how important do you think your personal statement is for this application?
I am also a student from the states that was accepted into CSM this year. I wasn't called for an interview. Maybe it has something to do with being international...?
I applied for foundation and got accepted as well. No one had interviews because covid. I’m from London and mine was cancelled too.
Madi Person yeah I actually think that might’ve happened to most people! Especially with the whole corona virus situation now
Hi! I’m going to apply in 2 years to ual and was just wondering how many pieces should you be putting in the portfolio, thank you!
Hi! It depends on the course! So for foundation it was 10-20 pages, and for my degree course it was up to 30 pages as per the portfolio requirements! And then for each page you can put as many as you want as long as theyre related to the same theme but I would put a max of 2 or 3
Which software did you use for making it digital portfolio??
Procreate! But you can use PowerPoint, indesign, anything you feel comfortable with
Hii, I am from Argentina and I would like to apply to the Foundation as well. My question is, did you build the portfolio on your own? I have to build it on my own.? Also did you do any online short course foundation portfolio preparation? I dont know if they are worth it. Thank you so muchhhhh

Hey did u apply to the diagnostic or specialist pathway
I went for the diagnostic pathway as I was unsure of what I wanted to do. But after the first term you specialise (e.g I went into fashion communication)
Hi there! I was wondering, can you apply to a foundation course if you are 16? Thanks)
Hi! I'm not sure but I believe you can! Although I know you need school certification e.g you might need to have completed GCSE's. But if I were you I would get in contact with them or check our all of the requirements on the foundation course page!
Hi,did u receive any scholarships?
Can anyone tell me ual and saint martins whats the diffrence they are the same university what is it?
CSM is a College within the wider UAL which has other colleges like Chelsea and Wimbledon
I'm not on Instagram so I'm telling my query her... We don't have a diploma course in our school for fine arts and so that is a big problem for me... And I specialise in landscape of oil pastel and soft pastel... I'm learning body figures for fashion designing and I've got many ideas for some dresses in women's wear..... I am learning lettering and doodling... I'm not much in 3D art but I do know photography... So I wanted to ask if these many things will help or not for my portfolio 😁😁
Of course they will!! Keep working and Goodluck!!💗💗
what kind of styles of art can u use for ur portfolio?
Ilayda Basak any style!! Styles that represent you and styles that you work with!:)
Are you a fine arts major?
I noticed you said u took a gap year, is it worth it?
what course was the application and portfolio for??
Sophie F foundation art and design!!
which major are u taking?
Hii! I live in Dubai too and I am looking for private portfolio guidance from someone like you who has gone through the whole process and been accepted
Would you be open to guiding UAL aspirants?
And where can I take graphic designing classes?
Hi! This is kind of the only guidance I could
Give really! I did a graphic design course at SAE dubai
did you apply to ba or foundation?
I was going to apply for a BA but I just love every area of art and want to try out everything before going into a specific course, so I chose to do the foundation! :)
@@luisafmbarros That's awesome! I had a few questions after looking over their website though. For the 20 pages mini portfolio did you organize it in independent projects or just random selection of best works? Is it any different from the full portfolio? Thanks :D
Seleee hii!! So yeah the order I show it in the video is the order that I sent it to them in! I basically showed work that I’m proud of and that has a variety of media!
