Alex Ingram

Alex Ingram is a colleague of mine in the Arts & Technology. We have taken classes from photo courses to video, so I know of his work. I also had a chance to work with him in the Communications department as a graphic design intern, even though we didn't have any projects together, I still see him in the office and see the work he does.

When Alex came into our class to talk about his plan after graduating, I was happy that he got into an awesome art school with Pratt. He mentioned that the work he put into his portfolio and stuff for his application to graduate school was a lot more grueling compared to the work he's done here at school. He talked about how important it was to put yourself as an artist out there, by setting up a portfolio, a website of your best work, and blogs about your work and thought behind it. Its important to set up an online portfolio because people will look at it and you never know who will be looking and could possibly be a great opportunity.
