Hey everyone!
I’m currently preparing my Sheridan Animation portfolio for the upcoming cycle, and I’m trying to build a realistic daily schedule without burning out.

For those of you who are current students or recently accepted, I’d love to ask:

1) On average, how many hours per day did you work on your portfolio?

• Was it 2–3 hours?
• 4–6 hours?
• Or more during the last month?

2) Which section took you the longest?

• Observational drawings
• Character design
• Storyboarding
• Perspective drawings
• Sketchbook
• Animation test

3) What would you say is the most important thing Sheridan looks for?

• Clean construction?
• Strong gesture?
• Clear storytelling?
• Appealing shapes?

4) If you could restart your portfolio, what would you do differently?

Any honest advice would genuinely help.
I'm working every day but I want to make sure I’m focusing on the right things and keeping a healthy pace.
Thanks in advance — seriously appreciate any guidance you can share! 🙏
