Rejected Sheridan Animation Portfolio 2023

[@whatsthedelia5481]

omg that short animation score was HARSH. you should feel super proud of your hard work, best of luck :)

[@Atlas-oo5io]

1:39 place darker lines where shadows would fall. Use darker lines to show weight of objects to, so heavier things would be darker.

[@willowgrewal6359]

Highly amusing. And helpful! Thanks for making this, props to you for making your portfolio DURING university!! I am working on mine in high school and already that feels like a lot. I hope you keep up your art though, it is really good. And 84% is pretty high for your first time applying :D

[@Shame100]

Thank you so much; Know that I'm praying for you good luck

[@apoll3r]

HUH the score for the animation and the rotation is quite unfair... the rotation had very clean consistency and features, and the animation had really nice action + demonstrated a lot of the principles of animation! I forgot if you discussed if you will be reapplying or not in the video, but I wish you luck either way! Your portfolio was awesome

[@GuardianSpirits13]

I appreciate your affirmations at the end! I know you'll do great wherever you end up :)

[@cemcobanart5398]

wow. I was also preapering my portfolio while going Univeristy for second time but luckly I got in for this year. Your portfolio is amazing. And it is really amazing that you got this high score while doing University.

[@sphinxtheeminx]

Remember, as one door closes, another opens. You are meant for better things.

[@acexsketches]

your animation was so good! Robbed! i like the characterization in the juice box

[@Xenderman]

I love watching these portfolio videos. I'm not going to Sheridan I don't think, but I like how you went through your thought process. These also give me new artists to follow

[@scarecrowjones1]

MANNN THESE ARE CRAZY GOOD THO.... tsk, who needs sheridan anyway. i think these are great and only i matter

[@lordcommander3224]

I know what they were thinking on the animation… they really wanted to see more exaggerated squash and stretch.

[@steakes0628]

I came here expecting analysis of every piece and small nitpicks of details, but honestly this was way better and way funnier

[@nicolelouis2517]

although this video is kinda a somber one your humor is so funny i couldn't stop smiling. I wish you good luck for the coming year s!)

[@StartAnimation]

''he only had an ipad and a dream'' 🕊🕊🕊 good luck next time dude, I liked very much your work =/

[@GorgeousGary]

Tracing over resources is definitely a good time saver. But when you're making a portfolio to show off your drawing skills and abilities? Ehh..... feel like you're just lying at that point. Thanks for sharing though.

[@Bopsterjazz]

Ok, I have watched a TON of these and I am not at a point in my life where I could ever feasibly go to Sheridan or any other animation school aside from the program I’m attending, BUT. I have learned that they like to see your under drawings. They want you to show your work. So, with the hands, have red/blue construction lines, same goes for character rotation and figure drawing. So, hopefully that helps whoever needs it!

[@Internet-Soup]

im sorry you didnt get in but you do have to remember, so many people apply so in the end they really have to nitpick. It sucks but i really hope you try again next year :))

[@ame_vagabonde]

You are very funny, my dude! And your work was so good, especially impressive for someone already in university! Good luck for the rest of your biology studies ❤

[@NgocTranTruongBao]

the international fee, doing portfolio while in full time uni and lmao not the 2AM hand drawing too ToT like tf same tho im not applying to sheridan cuz the fee mainly but im doing the same rn to another school instead and came across ur video anw i wish u good luck on the path u choose and thank you for sharing your experience i really enjoyed ur video

[@flumazee]

Thank you for the video! Very insightful ❤

[@arunimaverma8130]

im applying this year and my art teacher told me not to do a library for the perspective one even though it was my original (HALF DONE MIGHT I ADD) idea

[@PsychicBlast]

I am doing bio too. Time to study those telomeres and senescent cells!

[@euodeio3]

Great job

[@quirkyjoeAnimated]

This was a really insightful video. I think you learned a lot from going through this process. If you did want to regroup and reapply you would definitely know how to approach with more tactics and experience. Do you need to score 100 to be accepted? Do they give you any kind of brief or guidelines on what to produce other than the category titles?

[@Mistersquatch__420]

I dont know if ill make it into this school 💀

[@akirosensei]

What with this "Sheridan" school why a lot of people talk about, when i research about animator portfolio?

[@samsil187]

Did you work with a mentor/teacher to offer feedback on your portfolio before submitting it?

[@maratusart6583]

I would say maybe the animation wasn’t clear enough? I think everything just happened way too fast and the volume of the box didn’t keep its consistency. Like when you squash something it needs to keep its volume. You don’t just make it smaller vertically, you have to make it wider horizontally too, you know what I mean? Omg wait I’m not saying this to criticize you or anything I just wanna be helpful for future reference 😭

[@ariadnaavalosagurto9046]

hi so you make the portfolio so they let study there ? or how does it work? or this is like the final test?

[@halcyon.x]

the portfolio is kind of like an entrance exam

[@zetjet9901]

nice

[@charliebonifacio2587]

Your Portfolio would be accepted at Mohawk College if you’re interested. You are more than qualified to start a College Program. 😊

[@laurenbrady98]

Tracing! Boooo! Learn perspective bro.

[@Uiru11]

Shame on you for tracing a required portfolio piece and having the lack of dignity to even think about submitting it.

[@HanaSong-un8hv]

tracing huh.....that's no difference than cheating, best artists don't trace they learn perspective and draw everything from scratch.

[@halcyon.x]

while i don’t think he should have traced in his portfolio, saying that the best artists don’t trace and do everything from scratch is just false. plenty of professional artists trace in order to save time. tracing doesn’t necessarily mean cheating. along with a basic understanding of perspective, it can be a great way to get the general idea of an image’s perspective. tracing is just another tool at artists’ disposal.

[@stephlala094]

Correction, the best artists trace CORRECTLY. They don't just trace everything, they trace to help themselves practice, many did it while they were beginners too. And certain commission painters trace the photo that they are painting because they get paid to paint, not draw.

[@Atlas-oo5io]

Correction, he traced wrong. You need to break down shapes when you trace and then Redraw the shapes by yourself. Tracing should be used to help break down references.

[@HanaSong-un8hv]

Correction, there is a literal disclaimer in the portfolio requirements that tracing/rotoscoping is not allowed and that it WOULD result in an immediate zero. It's great for learning or understanding a process, it's indefensible when you're showcasing your personal skills but the perspective work/environment is already done for you, which many struggle on. They're lucky to not have been caught, and it's unfair to the other applicants.

[@yusufalasmi8923]

Portfolio rejected and rightfully so
