78% of Motion Studio applicants create
stylized demo reels that are relatively simple to make.
Cinematic demo reels account for about 20-30% of the total,
but in some cases, their motion graphics submissions lacked
tone and mood.
(From the interview with Kyungrae Yu, the senior artist at GIANTSTEP)
Kyungrae Yu, an artist who has worked on numerous job portfolios,
will now show you how to build a portfolio that stands out.
From screen layout composition
to texturing and lighting for added detail,
to scene production for added immersion!
Approved by an actual case in which
Lamborghini proposed collaboration after watching
the scene I prepared for personal work.

Interview
with 3D Artist
Kyungrae Yu
I also remember being very frustrated when I first began studying video and attempted to get a job by creating a portfolio. Nowadays, you can easily find many good tutorials and theoretically explanatory videos on the Internet. But it is still difficult to find lectures that explain how and to what extent you should create a portfolio to get a job. In this class, I'll walk you through the entire process of creating a complete cinematic portfolio from start to end.
Question.02
What are your strengths as a 3D artist?
What are your strengths as a 3D artist?
Personally, I believe that the look and animatics that match the tone and mood are important when creating a video because any video must be visually appealing to viewers. That's why this cinematic curriculum also contains a variety of skills that can bring out the 'look' of motion graphics, such as realistic texture and neatly packed scene direction.
Question.03
What makes this class different from other class?
What makes this class different from other class?
I think it's the fact that this class focuses on an actual portfolio, not just an exercise. In this class, we'll cover the professionals' workflow when creating portfolios, how to create cinematic mood, tips on texturing & lighting, and post-compositing using After Effects.
Question.04
Who do you recommend taking this class?
Who do you recommend taking this class?
I recommend this class to anyone who needs to create a portfolio, from job seekers to junior practitioners. Even without complex skills, the curriculum will be carried out within the functions that the students are familiar with. In addition, I'll share with you my and practitioners' tips for creating a portfolio more effectively
