Long time no see Plus Tips and Tricks: My Essay Answers

Hi guys. Sorry I have been M.I.A. for so long

I had planned on deleting the blog but thanks to several of you I decided not to, if you emailed me and I did not get back to you please email me again if you still need extra help or a portfolio review. I promise I will respond.

That being said after this month I will no longer be available for extra questions or portfolio essay reviews

I will leave up the blog with a disclaimer so this will probably be my last post. If you have a question post it here and will answer within 2 days.

Also, on an old flash drive I found the answers to my essay questions from my 2010 portfolio

Tips and Tricks: Essay Edition

Check out the first part here

- When writing your essay, one of the most important things you need to do is relax. This is why I say that should always write your essay and then put it away, come back in a few days and look it over. What may have looked like a stroke of genius before may look like scrambled eggs on your second inspection.

- Once you're relaxed, the best tip I can offer is to pretend that your essay is like an actual conversation with someone from F.I.T. The point of that would be to not make your thoughts so mechanical sounding.

- Don't start your essay saying 'fashion is my dream'. Of course it is, but find a different way to say it. Remember you want to stand out from the rest.

This is kind of eerie and bitter sweet to watch, but the best McQueen Doc I've seen.

Tips and Tricks: 2012/13 F.I.T (AAS Fashion Design) Portfolio Requirements

Some of my info is a little dated. I see F.I.T. shortened the requirements A LOT from when I applied.
I may add to it more if I think of anything, but I'm just throwing out a few ideas for you all working with the new requirements.
If you have any questions, leave them in the comments:)

--also, I added a Google translator,  hopefully if you need it, it will work for you.

On F.I.T.'s Portfoilio changes

I realize F.I.T. has changed some things since I applied, I did address it in the comments sections of some of the posts.
However, I can assume the bulk of it is still the same. If you have any questions though, leave it in the comments and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
