USC SCA "Creative Portfolio"

<p>Note that in this thread I am not talking about supplementary material in general, but part 4, the creative portfolio list.</p>

<p>As a a production applicant, would it be acceptable to mention material on the creative portfolio list that we will not be able to present? For example, videos I made in my broadcasting class during my junior year that were wiped from the school computers at the end of the school year, or short stories I wrote my freshman and sophomore years that were lost when I reset my computer to factory settings without backing up my hard drive. Please don't tell me how silly I was for not saving these things, I do regret it!</p>

<p>I would just like to know if it would be acceptable to mention these things. Thank you very much!</p>

<p>My son included a few items that were lost but most were available. In fact, for those items that were available, he created a link to each in the portfolio list.</p>

<p>Hey neverquit32 :slight_smile: They won’t ask to see any of your projects. The Creative Portfolio is a record of all relevant artistic endeavors; it does not prove that you are talented but that you are dedicated and motivated. I’m a production student, btw.</p>

<p>Thank you both so much! I feel a lot better now. </p>
