The Upstate NY Chapter of the AIGA invites the 2010 graduating graphic design students from Upstate NY to our second annual Capital District Student Portfolio Review. 


THE EVENT:

The review is a chance for you to practice your interview skills and get valuable feedback from local professionals about your design work and resume in a no-risk, non-competitive environment geared at preparing you for the professional interviewing process. Depending upon number of students registering, we may split the event into (2) 2 hour sessions: 6-8pm and 8-10pm.


WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

You will receive objective advice and thoughtful one-on-one commentary and criticism of your design work from local design educators, professional designers, and potential employers. While this event is not a job fair, some reviewers may be looking for potential employees or interns. This event is a great way to discuss your work, network and become aware of who’s who in the Capital Region design community.


WHO CAN ATTEND:
Students: The review is open to college seniors, 2010 graduates, and MFA candidates from Upstate New York.
Reviewers: The review is open to local art and design professionals and educators from NY's Capital Region.


WHAT TO BRING:
Bring 12-15 pieces of your best work from your portfolio, as well as multiple copies of your resume and business cards. If you plan on showing interactive or rich-media work, please bring a fully-charged laptop and extension cord.
