How to Make the Best Video Portfolio for College Applications

[@avainspired]

How did you know I've been working on this rn (since Jan 1st...) Despite my love for making videos I find the portfolios so challenging. I have so many ideas and I'm worried I won't portray myself the best LOL

You got this! I believe in you!

What are some good example messages for your video portfolio?

[@lourdricksroom]

The portfolio can sort of summarize your application’s themes. For example, my video portfolio touched on themes of communication and how important storytelling was. Other examples I’ve seen online have used themes of curiosity and intellectual vitality to talk about their different academic pursuits. Others have talked about personal connections and exploration through trying new things and seeking discomfort. Good messages will be ones that are supported by all the different parts of the video. Let me know if this helps!

Hey great video Lour Drick! I know you said that it doesn’t really matter if our video is of premium quality, but I was just wondering what editing software did you use for yours?

[@lourdricksroom]

I used Filmora for mine. Wevideo and iMovie may also be good free options
