today we had a skype interview with chloe from the children's illustration agency plum pudding.
it was really interesting to hear her talk about what it's like to have an agent and what they do there. there are some tips that i picked up from the talk, for instance, having an online portfolio (website) is important for showing clients easily the work that you have, this should also include character design sheets for animals as well as people. i think that my work fits into this and it was interesting to hear her reaffirm what i already thought. she also talked about having sketches in your portfolio as well as finished pieces of work, which i thought was interesting. it makes sense though, so that the client can see how you produce your work from the beginning stages and if i wanted to go into storyboarding or character designing they would want rough sketches as well as finished pieces so it makes sense.
i think this was one of the skype interviews at university where i felt like it was really geared towards me and i will try and take all of her suggestions into consideration!
