Have you always wanted to see how a top agent reviews a portfolio? From over 30 years in the business, Lilla Rogers has boatloads of wisdom to share.
We launched our first ever MATS Portfolio Review Live e-course in June 2018, and it was so overwhelmingly popular that we’ve decided to run it again in February! February’s course is going to take a good look at what Lilla looks for as an agent in an artist’s social media and website, with a focus this round on Instagram and Pinterest.
Watch Lilla live as she shares her screen and hear her review websites and social media. She’ll discuss:
- What can you do to attract attention?
- What does the art director or agent look for?
- What type of post gets the most hits?
- How can you use Instagram stories and highlights to show off your work?
Join us for this dynamic, fully-live course where you can comment, ask Lilla questions, and watch top art agent Lilla Rogers review one of the Portfolio Review Live student’s website/social media each week! It could be you!
One of our regular MATS students, Deborah Stein (Bonbon Oiseau) even created this gorgeous illustration inspired by the class. Deborah wrote, ‘It was a great class and it helped me so much!’ about the June MATS Portfolio Review Live course.
Read what some of our students had to say about the June course:
‘A must! You will have your eyes opened for you and realize so much about yourself and your work.’
‘Excellent for getting your portfolio act together, essential tools for updating your website and getting IG savvy.’
‘I thought the [live reviews] were great, very informative, lots of info to digest & great insights from Lilla as to how the end user/Art Dir will view your portfolio.’
‘The live reviews challenged me to work on my website and to think of it as a work in progress that I can continue improving.’
‘The live reviews were great! (I only wish I had gotten picked :)) The reviews helped show me what art directors were looking for. It helped me realize just how much work I have ahead of me. The reviews also energized me and I feel I am up for the challenge.’
‘I now have a clear sense of direction for improving both my website and Instagram account. Before the class, I was just tinkering.’
‘My website changed a lot specially my home page and about page. The most valuable thing I learned through organizing my portfolio is that I now “see” my style. It’s amazing that I did not see it before and it was always there. Thanks Lilla! Cheers to Clarity!’
