UCLA DMA Portfolio Fall 2020

Transfer Students UC Transfers
1

Anyone applying to UCLA DESMA for Fall 2020,

I saw there wasn’t a discussion for UCLA DMA applicants for 2020 so decided to make one. I’m a second year at CC and hoping to transfer to UCLA next year. How far along is everyone on their portfolios? I’m a little behind on mine but I have a strong idea for most of my projects (it seems that winter break is going to be a grind, as much as I hate to say that about art).
Most of my portfolio is going to consist of 2D art because that’s really my strong suit right now and feel that it’s the best way to show my creativity. I heard was not a good idea but then I saw someone on YouTube who basically only submitted colored pencil drawings and she still got in. I’m not too big on animation or anything else other than drawing, but I did make a layout of a website for my own clothing company.

Also, is anyone else struggling with the solidarity project? I’ve been trying to think of something that’s not too generic and more non conventional, but I might be overthinking it at this point. Tbh, the color project for past DMA portfolios looked more fun.

If anybody has any feedback or other questions, feel free to respond.

The topic is transfer applicants but freshman applicants for DMA are pretty much the same.

Is anyone else having trouble getting into their supplemental application? It was supposed to open today but I haven’t been able to upload any work.

@Ohm888 Yeah, it let me in a day after it was open, not sure why. I submitted it yesterday so now all that’s left to do is wait.

Please stop bumping.

@ohm888 I’ve just seen other people doing it on their posts and I thought that it would help get some responses. Is there a reason I shouldn’t be doing it?

If you have something to add add it. But don’t just keep bumping. I’m going to close this discussion.
