Thanks for all the great questions about putting a portfolio together recently. I decided it would be a better use of my time to write it all out since so many artists have the same questions. </div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.600000381469727px;">

<div style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.600000381469727px;">
These are the first five pages in a series of posts about how to layout a portfolio, including content, images, size, material and everything in between. Part 1 is for the artist still deciding what to do for a discipline. I've catered the last three pages to a visual development portfolio for animation but the principles can be applied to any artistic presentation (illustration, design, even interior design).</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.600000381469727px;">
<span style="line-height: 1.4;">These are my opinions and I realize there are many ideas out there which are also fantastic. What I have written are simple truths and tips I've learned along the way. This doesn't represent a studio I work for or will work for. I hope it is helpful and can provide some perspective into a competitive portfolio and help you land your next job! </span></div>

I'm humbled and excited to be helping Ryan Lang with his amazing CGMA class, "The Art of Color and Light. Ryan and I were roommates while interning at Disney in 2008. He is an incredible artist and great teacher. I'm looking forward to working with him again and hope I can pull my own weight! And...The super talented Tyson Murphy will be teaching too. Tyson and I went to BYU together!<br />

Sooo excited to finally share the fun things we're working on here at Blue Sky. I can't say too much but you can see the extreme attention we are paying to the work of Schulz in order to stay true to his line. It is deceivingly tricky!<br />

I hope you are having a great new year! I am really looking forward to 2014 as a year for growth and new ideas. So many great things happened in 2013 and among them was the opportunity I had to work on Epic. I'm really proud to have been a part of this film. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When I started at Blue Sky in 2011, I was wrapping up on Ice Age 4 when <a href="http://www.michaelknapp.com/" target="_blank">Mike Knapp</a> (art director of Epic, IA: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, No Time For Nuts), brought me onto the Epic team (at the time it was called Leafman). I have to admit, I was intimidated to be working with such an incredible group consisting of, in my opinion, some of the best artists in the industry. Working with this team really pushed me to step up my game. When you are surrounded by inspiring ideas and an atmosphere of willingness, good things happen. Everyone freely shared their techniques and process which was kinda like a warm welcome for me. I learned so much from everyone. Mike especially had a vision for this film and guided us all to nail the look. It's no surprise he's been nominated for an <a href="http://www.asifa-hollywood.org/41st-annieawards-nominations-announced/" target="_blank">Annie</a>! I'm so grateful to have been a part of Epic and our great Blue Sky family. I hope you enjoyed it too!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
To start 2014 off, here are some color keys from Epic. </div>

I just found out my book is going to be ready for CTN! I'll have about 100 limited edition copies of <i>Musings and Wanderings </i>for sale. The entire book is split into either a Musing (a painting study from my head) or a Wandering (a painting study from observation). It is packed full with work from Puerto Rico, California, New York, Connecticut, Costa Rica, Utah and has lots of dinosaurs (including JP references)! Stop by my table T-10 to pick one up!</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">CTNx is almost here! It is definitely my favorite time of the year. I've been asked to do a a presentation and a couple workshops which you can sign up for at the <a href="http://www.ctnanimationexpo.com/participants/index.php/category/workshop_sessions/" target="_blank">CTNx website</a>. If you are attending, definitely stop by my table T-10 and say hello. I'll be in the same spot as last year next to my buddy <a href="http://john-nevarez.blogspot.it/" target="_blank">John Nevarez</a>. I'll be selling new artwork and other goodies! I'll have more on that soon and some paintings from my trip to Italy. </span><br />

A good example of how to land your dream jobI get asked one question a lot, "What advice do you have for getting into a feature animation studio?"<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is such a big and deep question. As an artist you really need solid perspective and direction to make sure all your work is not spent in vein. You need constant guidance as to what is good and what is bad. I feel like my perspective on this is constantly evolving, especially as I work on projects that really challenge me. You need to put in a TON of time. You need to make mistakes and (1) learn to get feedback. You need to (2) learn to use feedback constructively to grow. You need to figure out what makes you improve when nobody else is around. And among many things, you need to (3) learn to persevere optimistically until you land that dream job you've wanted since you watched Aladdin get his three wishes. Kevin Yang is a good example of how to get into a feature animation studio.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When I first met Kevin, he came to my table at CTNx 2012; He asked me to look through his portfolio. I don't know how many portfolios I looked at that year but there were many. A few things stood out to me right away with Kevin. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
He was extremely polite and considerate. He recognized whilst we spoke that I was still selling my own work. I had a business to run. He respected my time and kept the visit short and sweet. His portfolio looked professional. It was slick. It was filled with interesting images that made me think and my blood move quick. I could see lots of thought behind each page and its layout. He had done his homework to focus it in one direction. When I gave Kevin feedback, he already had a pencil and paper ready to write down notes. I could see that this guy (1) learned how to get feedback. After each critique, I could see him digest the information in his head and write a note to remember. Even things I'm sure he's heard before were still re-digested and written. He was thorough. When we finished, he shook my hand and bought a large print...not a bad idea to end on :) </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Kevin kept in touch with me. He often sent me updates with his artwork, commented on my social media, connected via professional platforms, and asked very direct, specific questions when he had them. Each time I saw an update on a painting or a revised sketch, there was a solid improvement. Principles we had discussed were being applied. Action was taken to create solutions. Kevin (2) learned how to use feedback constructively and grow. He didn't just get feedback from me either; he gathered a well-rounded opinion from industry professionals to analyze where he was at. After all, many eyes are better than two. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Soon thereafter, Kevin was graduating. He landed an interview with Blue Sky during a recruiting visit and it went great! Not only did he score brownie points with a rockstar portfolio, he showed credibility mentioning I'd been looking over his work giving feedback. From there Kevin didn't wait around for an answer, he started working on the <a href="http://vimeo.com/62717022" target="_blank">Dam Keeper</a> short film. Here is a perfect example of (3) persevering optimistically until you land that dream job. Soon after, Kevin got a call from Blue Sky offering him the summer internship. He came, kicked some butt and got offered a full-time position. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There is so much to learn from Kevin Yang. Among many things, here are three that I believe are key to landing your dream job:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
#1 learn to get feedback</div>
<div>
#2 learn to use feedback constructively to grow</div>
<div>
#3 learn to persevere optimistically until you land that dream job...then keep growing:)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
