BA (Hons) Illustration with Animation
How to submit your digital portfolio

If you have applied to the BA (Hons) Illustration with Animation course we will ask you to provide a digital portfolio.

We would like you to submit your Digital Portfolio as a Blog. This is easy to do and if you follow the instructions you should not experience any difficulty.

1. Open a BLOGGER account by going to www.blogger.com. Follow the on-screen instructions. Viewing the video tutorial this will help you to set up your blog.
2. Include 10-12 images of your work (JPEGs)
3. Include a statement about the work you have submitted, a little bit about yourself and why you are interested in the programme – approx. 300 words.
4. Please do not include personal details on your blog – name, address etc. Please title your blog with your UCAS number. e.g. http://www.1234567.blogspot.com/
5. When you have constructed your blog, check to make sure that it is correct and that all the images and information can be viewed
6. Submit the web address of your blog by using our online form at artportfolio.mmu.ac.uk.

Notes

We will only use the information you send us as part of the admissions process for Manchester School of Art. Other candidates will not be able to view your work unless you wish to publicise the blog. Do NOT protect your blog with any kind of access password - If you do we will not view the blog.

If you do not wish your blog to be included in blogger listings or to be found by search engines you can turn these functions off. When you have made your blog go to the top right of the screen and click "customize – settings – basic" and select no to 'Add your blog to our listings' and 'let search engines find your blog'.

If you are unable to access the Blogger service, we will accept blogs hosted on other sites. Please contact the Admissions Team for further advice.
