A good portfolio?

Garrett Fortner · 2011-01-06T18:43:38

Hello all, Lately I've been putting together my portfolio website, which is broken into 5 different categories. They are Game Design, Programming, Web Design, Modeling, and Animation. Before I start extensively planning out my portfolio projects I was wondering what you guys would like to see in a portfolio piece. Some pointers would be very much appreciated. Any tips or tricks you guys have would also be appreciated. What would you like to see in a well organized Portfolio website? What kind of Modeling projects catches your eye in a portfolio? What kind of programming pieces would you be surprised to see in a portfolio of a younger person?I would just like your guys opinion on how to put together the best portfolio I possibly can.(By the way I'm 15 turning 16 in Feb. So I know I could use any pieces of advice you have for me) Thanks to all whom answer, Have a great day!!

would it not be possible to create a company which both develops and publishes video games?

1. Anything is possible.
2. Such a company would be called a "publisher." Many publishers have development studios.
