Optimise your website and social media to get illustration jobs
Next month, we are incredibly excited to launch a brand-new and innovative course called Portfolio Review Live! This course is a series of four one-hour long LIVE website/ Instagram reviews from top art agent Lilla Rogers. Get the expert’s view on what works and how to make your portfolio attract the jobs you want.
In this lively new course, art agent Lilla will review a randomly selected student’s website and/or Instagram account in an hour-long in-depth LIVE portfolio review every week for four weeks. The participant will be chosen at random each week, and it could be YOU! (Don’t worry – you don’t have to take part if you or your website aren’t ready yet. Plus Lilla is incredibly warm and gentle in her approach: she’s all about putting the constructive into criticism.) Lilla will also offer tons of advice to help you succeed in your career. You never know what will happen in each review as they are live and unscripted!
Even if you don’t get picked for the live review, it’s still an incredible learning opportunity to find out just how a top art agent views a website or portfolio and discover what they’re looking for. Then you can take your newfound knowledge and apply it to your own website and/or social media. This is real world learning from an industry expert!
Join Lilla in June in this brand-new live class and find out how to get your portfolio noticed! Sign up for MATS Portfolio Review Live NOW!

The MATS Team
So excited to begin our” live portfolio review” class in June, 2018. Every topic you spoke of covering in the class gives promise of light shining on questions I have had in developing content and art for my new website (a necessary step in the journey to be a published writer/illustrator of children’s books). This class could not have come at a better time! Thanks ,
