Hello Students! I am looking to help high school students develop stronger portfolios to apply to animation schools. I have worked with portfolio development schools before, but I want to offer a more affordable option. Animation schools are highly competitive, so it is difficult to get in, but many of my students have successfully gotten into Sheridan and Seneca College. I am offering online tutoring and drawovers as well as the possibility of some of the lessons to be in-person for those in the GTA should you require that help. I am aware of what is expected for animation portfolios and what the professors are looking for. I also want to focus on being kind to students and letting your ideas be your own. I want my students to learn and develop the skills to not only get into animation school, but thrive once you are there. We will start with whatever is relevant towards the school you are applying to. Even before they release the requirements, there are things we can work on and develop based on what is consistent every year. First lesson is a consultation, to see if you would like to go forward with me and is free of charge. Let me guide you, and we can get your portfolio together and give it your best shot!
