Hi /p/ I'm desperate for some other opinions on which photos I should put into my portfolio to take to a university interview tomorrow. It's for a filmmaking course but they've asked for any relevant work so please don't let me down /p/ Can you choose the best ten for me to print in A3???

>Can you choose the best ten
>of 13
LOL
are you aware that these are all terrible
>>2743191
I've obviously chosen the ones I prefer but am unsure of which three to lose. Thanks for the help anon
>>2743176
>>2743179
>>2743181
>>2743182
>>2743186
Please don't take these to a university interview. They're bland and im sure that one guy is rolling his tits off.
Take ONE of your long exposure shot and maybe one action skating shot.
These
>>2743173
>>2743177
>>2743178
>>2743189
are quite nice. Just bring ones with nice composition that aren't cliché.
If your course is film making, as in a BSc not BA, then just talk about your favorite cinematographers and be passionate. Your portfolio is not going to be graded really, its just as a something to discuss for the interview.
>>2743194
Seconded. I'm not the one for harsh critique, but none of these apply. I've tried to look for something, but they're all super generic.
>>2743196
The picture of my friend i know he wasn't on any drugs but would you say definitely not to take it in? I thought it shows a range of skills as I was pushing myself out of my comfort zone taking portraits in a club during an event.
>>2743194
Thirded.
Also, have they requested A3 prints?
Because I really doubt they have, and it's a truly terrible idea.
Your photos are the artistic equivalent of noise music, scrolling through them at web sizes was tiresome enough.
Watching your limp, white, fuccboi face plead for my approval as you fumbled through a sheaf of giant prints of them would make me want to overdose on heroin.
I'm sorry you won't have any props to lean on during your interview, just research words film critics like and practise using them in sentences.
Is it really that bad...
>>2743203
Hmm, interesting choices, all quite contemporary.
If it's a BA, then (i assume) there's going to be a whole lot more essay writing and analyzation of narrative and the form of cinema than just practical film-making.
So come in with some films that you love (for gods sake not TDKR) and explain why and why these films make YOU passionate about film. Maybe some cinematic movements like German expressionism, French New Wave or Korean New Wave etc that you like.
They're not really going to keep questioning you they want you to do the talking, so do that.
Also >>2743197 isn't being a dick, dude. These pics, they're alright, they're nothing special. But that's okay, you're young and you want to learn.
>>2743217
I suddenly feel absolutely ill prepared, would you suggest A4/A3 or no prints?
>>2743207
Yeah, don't take this in. It just looks like you're at a house party with some friends.
>>2743224
A4 on gloss paper, put them in some sort of binder or folder for them to just flick through.
Say your interest in film led you to take up photography to get a better understanding of lighting and composition.
If you're interview is tomorrow, yeah, you're ill-prepared. But fuck it, what's done is done. You got to the interview stage, they just want to make sure you're not an idoit. If you can just not be an idiot for 10 minutes, you're golden.
Which Uni is it btw?
just choose whichever ones look more technically polished. that's probably all they'll be interested in. something to talk about too i guess.
