We began to share the offer every day. Since then, the natural light often saw students leave messages on the backstage: "I don't know how to make a collection of works recently, Creation of art works for studying abroad There is no train of thought at all, and I feel confused ".

"Teacher, I am working on the theme of XX, but I feel Collection of Art Studied Abroad I can't go on. I want to give up and change the theme. "

major Portfolio training Teacher: Zeng Linshu

Student Background

Before going to the natural light for the work collection training, Tan once participated in the training in a work collection training organization, but finally gave up the work collection training for various reasons Portfolio training The organization turned to natural light.

Tan is a student with a very strong personality, so when creating a collection of works, he often comes up with very creative ideas, which often surprises the teacher. Therefore, the process of exchange and guidance of art overseas collection has been very smooth!

But even so

Tan will inevitably encounter bottlenecks

Or show some lack of confidence

I was confused about my collection of works

But under the guidance and guidance of teachers

Tan finally succeeded in getting ACCD, SVA, MICA, PARSONS, etc

All offers from 8 famous universities

(It can be said that it is a grand slam~)

Prepare for Portfolio Creation

Before preparing the collection of works, Tan also showed some distrust of his teacher because he left some bad impression on an organization, which brought him some discomfort. At the beginning of the creation of overseas works collection of art, when encountering a bottleneck, I also refused to listen to the teacher's suggestions!

However, with constant communication and understanding with the teacher, Tan gradually felt the teacher's professionalism and efforts, and then began to relax, and gave 100% trust to communicate and cooperate with the teacher, trust the teacher's advice, guidance and teaching, and even gradually became friends with the old teacher~

As Tan is not very confident about his painting skills, he has always been skeptical about whether he can apply to the illustration major of the university he loves, and often shows a lack of confidence.

However, under the guidance of the natural light teacher, Tan began to try to make some bold creations and began to cooperate better with the teacher.

Although the painting level has not yet reached an amazing level, it can also flexibly show the content of the work. In addition, Tan is very efficient in doing things. He can always complete the tasks assigned by the teacher on time and in quantity, or even in excess.

Tan's collection of works includes multiple contents: clay sculpture, pottery sculpture, watercolor, propylene, sketch, colored lead, etc. While exploring multiple combinations of these materials, Tan also showed his creative ability and basic qualities as an illustration major applicant.

Creation of Art Collections for Studying Abroad -- Mid and Late Stage

When the completion degree of the collection of works reaches about 90%, the application deadline of various colleges and universities is also approaching, so Tan students have some negative and anxious psychology, and the previous state of self-confidence is beginning to show up. Therefore, facing the last part of the unfinished collection of works, Tan The students showed a little negative attitude, which is different from the situation reflected by many students.

(In the process of creating a collection of works

It is inevitable that the pressure will be huge. How to relieve the pressure

How to adjust oneself

Start again to face the pressure correctly

It is more important not to face it in a negative state)

Many students may relax in the final stage of the creation of the overseas art works collection, thinking that the last step is just typesetting, and it is OK to complete the creation of the works collection, but in fact, it is not. The typesetting of the overseas art works collection is also very important!

The final stage of the art collection for studying abroad is the middle and later stage. We need not only to integrate the complete set of works, but also to prepare some papers or materials related to the collection. Every step in the preparation of the collection is very important, so we should not slack off!

Maybe many people (including Tan) are confused about the later papers and don't know how to prepare them.

In order to help Tan finish the writing materials successfully, the teacher of Natural Light specially arranged several targeted courses for Tan, and discussed and discussed with him to plan the writing ideas and methods of the paper.

After this period of courses, Tan also has the ability to write essays for American universities!
