Visual Arts Portfolio Building - Editing Previous Works and Adding More

Àpd 24.31 € /h

This course is for people who are working on building a visual arts/design portfolio and/or are looking for feedback/tips on artworks. You'll learn how to strategically organize a portfolio and how to best showcase your work.

I can also provide tips on how to use Adobe programs (ie. Photoshop, Illustrator) to enhance both traditional and digital art. In terms of enhancing the portfolio as a whole, this course will also teach you what can be added to improve the overall quality. These tips can be applicable to a personal/academic portfolio, or even the AP Visual Arts Portfolio.

Présentation

Hey! My name is Marlo and I'm from Toronto, Canada, but am currently living in Ottawa! In my free time, I enjoy reading, learning about geography, and traveling - even if it's just around the city. My favourite author is Jules Verne, but my favourite book is Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.

Education

I'm a second year architecture student at Carleton University in Ottawa, and am studying architecture related to conservation and sustainability!

I took Advanced Placement courses in high school (AP English, AP Literature, and AP Visual Arts) and was able to pass the AP exams and portfolio assessment! Not only that, but my strengths in English and art courses have helped me earn subject awards, such as the Writer's Craft award and the AP Visual Arts award.

Expérience / Qualifications

I have never tutored students academically, but I have tons of experience teaching a variety of content. This content ranges from teaching karate to students of all ages at a dojo to teaching debate and conference procedure (as well as essay writing) as the president of the Model United Nations club in high school.

With these experiences came the ability to cater my teaching style and speed to different people! Although the lessons will vary from person to person, I will create a list of goals that align with the student's abilities and comfort level.

These sessions allow the development of skills and knowledge of the trade, with the game facing the camera, familiarization with the audiovisual environment and the camera tool, in the art of acting.

Your inventiveness and your uniqueness being at the center of your training, it is a question of dwelling on the objective criteria, such as the voice, the use of the body, the relationship with the partner, the capacity to occupy the space. But it is also the singularity and the commitment that are decisive.

The objective of this training is to be able to:

- Analyze and dissect a text
- Create, develop and embody a character
- Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play
- Create, cultivate and develop one's artistic identity and singularity

(...)

Through simulations and role-playing, the association between theory and practice makes it possible to achieve its objectives.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.

These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.
- As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.

THE TRAINER
From a Grande Ecole post-preparatory class in France & Ivy League University in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 14 years in the field, in international establishments, intervening in forums and conferences.

I am a multidisciplinary artist and designer with fifteen years of experience. I studied art and architecture at the École nationale supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and the Columbia University in New York. I teach painting, drawing, digital image and creativity. This class is ideal for beginners but also intermediate students who want to develop their own style.

For my personal projects, I work in a wide range of mediums, from drawing, painting and printmaking to digital image and 3D Printing. When teaching, I prefer to first focus on free-hand drawing and painting as this allows for greater spontaneity regardless of the student's technical level. We later explore other methods based on the student's individual interests. I like to teach children and adults via mini projects involving art history references and help them develop narratives around their work. I deeply believe in people's creative potential and in my classes will help you channel your own voice.

Would you like to be able to illustrate the worlds and stories you imagine?

Do you want to learn how to create characters for a video game, animation, children's story, comic or in any format? Or would you like to be able to draw your favorite characters?

If you have those concerns, I would love to help you.

I like to focus the classes in such a way that the current drawing level of the student is not what is important. The room for improvement will always evolve. I like to take my classes towards character design, towards general things like the psychology of color and shapes, since they are assimilable and highly useful concepts, independent of the level of drawing. For this reason, my classes are aimed at all ages and drawing levels.

I also try to focus them on the preferences and tastes of each student, showing them that everything they like, they like for a reason, that nothing is left to chance and that they can also understand how to make their drawings reflect what they want to convey. Even to create your portfolios or visual information for your own project or story.

I give private classes with students from different parts of the world, so many of my classes I have been able to do in both English and French.

I studied 2D animation in France, and thanks to this training, my work has been nourished by dynamism, storytelling, expressiveness, typical of this medium, as well as the sensitivity for color and shapes that I usually use to infuse a unique style both to my original designs as well as my fanarts.

I work as a 3D generalist for cinema and/or video games, with a specialization in 3D Layout/Préviz.

During our courses, I will teach you the techniques to create your own illustrations/projects, and allow you to discover if not improve your skills in the world of 3D.
As examples, we will learn how to use software such as Blender, 3dsMAx, Photoshop, Zbrush, Substance Painter, and many others.

I am very attentive, a teacher and I will be able to guide you and support you step by step on your desires for achievements, whether for beginners who want to discover this field, up to students who need to learn to master new skills.

My classes take place as follows:
You tell me what you would like to achieve, and we will achieve it together, otherwise I will offer you a project to create in line with your desires, while taking care to explore enough aspects to prepare you for the profession.

Looking forward to meeting you, and I hope, see you soon!

They are tailored to your needs and goals: learning the basics (proportions, colors, composition), exploring different techniques (sketching, illustration, observational drawing), and above all, learning through exploration, having fun... and drawing!

Bring the materials you like, progress at your own pace, and above all, enjoy creating!

Bonjour à toutes et à tous !

Artiste et professeur de dessin. Je donne des cours à domicile ainsi que des ateliers.
Titulaire de deux diplômes : dont un en arts graphiques et une certification en jeux vidéos. J'ai suivi un cursus artistique pendant sept ans. (Licence d'arts plastiques et école d'art)

J'enseigne le dessin dans sa manière globale ainsi que les fondamentaux : perspective, traits de construction.. ainsi que la bande dessinée ou encore les portraits. Je peux enseigner les méthodes dites académiques comme personnalisées et propre à chacun que ce soit avec des techniques réalistes ou cartoon.

Je guide chaque élève en observant sa manière unique de penser et de dessiner, puis je co-construis avec lui une méthode sur mesure qui respecte son geste graphique et libère sa créativité.
Mon approche combine technique, émotion et observation, pour que chaque trait compte et chaque élève progresse rapidement, en confiance et avec plaisir !
Ici, le dessin devient un espace de liberté, d'expérimentation et de compréhension incarnée.
Je m'engage également à chaque cours/ atelier d'avoir fait un travail sur lequel il ne pensait pas être capable de réaliser.

Je travaille avec tout type de profil et de niveau : Niveau, considéré comme débutant, intermédiaire, avancé, concours. Enfants, étudiant en école d'art, adultes, seniors, personne en situation de handicap.

J'accompagne chaque élève en parallèle si l'élève souhaite travailler après les cours effectué.
Je me déplace également à domicile. Possibilité d'effectuer les cours à mon domicile ou par webcam.

Je propose un cours d"essai pour apprendre à vous connaître, découvrir votre univers et vos objectifs.

A très vite,
Cindy

Artificial intelligence is revolutionary, but it can become a trap if used simply as an "answer generator." Parents, are you worried that your child will take the easy way out or lose their critical thinking skills? High school and university students, do you want to become more efficient while still taking pride in the originality of your work?

I will guide you in transforming AI into a true personal tutor. My goal: for the tool to serve your thinking, without ever replacing it.

What I wish to offer you (my methodology):

AI shouldn't write for you; it should help you think better. My approach focuses on:
- AI as a research partner: learning to "prompt" (query AI) to obtain relevant lines of thought and working structures.
- Critical thinking & ethics: Learn to verify sources, detect AI errors and ensure the academic honesty of your submissions.
- Methodological efficiency: Use the tool to synthesize dense courses, organize revisions or overcome writer's block.
- Student autonomy: Understanding how the tool works so as not to be dependent on it, but to become its pilot.

Specific examples of what we can accomplish together:

Dissertation/Thesis Methodology: Structure a coherent plan and identify key arguments without AI writing for you.

Exam preparation & Grand Oral: using AI to practice speaking, simulate examiner questions or simplify complex concepts (philosophy, economics, science).

Reading aid: learn to extract the essential information from a long or complex text to better understand it.

Organization: create personalized revision schedules and optimize your work time.

Ceramic is a natural and ancient material. Connect with the pleasure of clay modeling and shape utilitarian pieces such as bowls and vases, accessories or characters and countless decorative figures.
I am a professional illustrator with more than 15 years of experience and ceramics have captivated me. I tooked classes with the artist Lusesita (Laura Lasheras) and then continued self-taught.
We will go at your pace and you will walk your own path. Mud is for all ages and times. The frequency of classes is once a week, one hour, an hour and a half or two hours. If you need more frequent or intensive classes, please don't hesitate to ask.
I recommend the one-hour in-person class for the little ones, an hour and a half for when they grow up, and the two-hour class for adults, to go without rushing. If it is online, in both cases I recommend an hour or an hour and a half.
