Results are out - Art/Photo portfoilo scores

Chorcai

Got an email this morning from IADT



DL044 - Visual Arts Practice 360, out of all the colleges they gave me the lowest score !


Best of luck to everyone.



How are portfolios scored?

Portfolios are scored out of 600 points, the pass mark is 240 points (40%). If you get less than 240 points you are not considered eligible for the course and will not be offered a place.

How do I calculate my total points score?

1.
Take your portfolio score; eg - 360
2.
Take your leaving cert points or mature student score or FETAC points; eg - 400
3.
Add (1) to (2); eg 360 + 400 = 760.
This is your total points score.

This totally shows the random different marking schemes between DIT and IADT....
I got 500 for DIT (same as Lolnouska)
and 390 for IADT....
Dun Laoighres my first choice but I'd happy if I got a place in DIT

Congrats on the scores guys! Just checked mine today lol, had my PLC grad night last night so didnt look at my emails all day!

I got 420 points! I'm really happy with it, hopefully the points don't go too high up cause at the minute i'm over the requirement from last year

Oh, and for DIT i got 300 points, Really doesnt make much sense does it

well it was the same last year i got 400 in dit and 240 in iadt.

It really does depend on the person marking your portfolio though.

I got 480 for animation, I think I'm happy. I already have a place in ADS in bcfe anyway so I'll try again if I don't get it this year... But I really want it ha.

Any idea of how difficult it'll be to get in on 480? I got 465 in my mocks and I expect around that for the actual leaving too.

I wouldn't say it's random, more a case of IADT looking for certain higher standard and talent than DIT. Hard luck.

Exactly what I was thinking. Well sort of ^^
My Portfolio had some Art Related Stuff and IADT liked it definitely more then DIT.

dan759

Same here, My portfolio for photography got 300 for DIT and 420 for IADT. And mine was quite art based. Especially if they read through my notebooks.

Has anyone heard of anyone getting full marks for photography? So far i'm hearing a lot of results in the 400-500 margin.

At the end of the day who cares as long as ya get in ! Ok maybe not but I'd think that colleges take in students that fit or could meet their style.

But since we won't know if we're in, at least for a while, we will discuss it ^^

I got 360 in Animation, 300 in Costume and 600 in Make up but I' m kinda worried with ten places, im fooked if the top ten for make up are brain boxes and get over 400. Does anyone else think that the points this year are gonna be sky high?

I don't want to start a DIT v IADT battle, can we talk about why people feel each college is viewed more or less artist ? Reading around and talking to people it would seem IADT is where you go to make art related photos. Is this the aim of the college ? DIT/Grif is where you go for more commercial based stuff.

Has anyone got plan as to what they hope to do when they finish in 4yrs time ?

I think IADT is far more open & free for students, opposed to 'arty'. I only bothered applying for IADT as the other colleges where of no interest to me, I want to take photos as much as possible when in college. I don't want to be wasting my time writing essays about my photography OR past photographers (don't get me wrong, it's all good finding out about the history of photography, some of the masters etc etc) but I want to learn how to step up my game to a very high level.

I know there will be essays involved in the course but far less than other courses from what I've been asking.

If I get into the course I want to be covering high fashion, commercial/advertising photography and portraits to a high level by the end of four years. This is what I want to focus on at the moment, so that may all change, who knows

I'd love to hear what other people want to come out with after four years!!

I've just done a PLC Photography Course and I was amazed what I could learn in just one year. I mean I do know now, how to process B&W Film and I can even print it. Yeah, Maybe that is somehow old school and I do love my digital SLR, but with fil you need to have awesome shoots. We learnt to focus on something and how we get the best out of a shoot.
I wanna do more of it. I want to print colored film. I want the chance to get into these amazing studios IADT has and to work away there. When I handed in my portfolio I was taking another look around (I was also there on the open day) and the work of some students where framed. They took famous paintings as an example and re-did it in a studio. Instead of a brush they used their camera. While crossing this floor I had at least three paintings in mind, worth a photography copy.
That's why I want to study there. They have the equipment and they know what they're teaching you. They give you ideas.
I had an amazing tutor the last year and she really inspired my work and helped me. I want to have that. And from what I heard I will get that at IADT. So it is a dream and seeing it fading more and more is bad.
If I won't get in this year I will definitely try again next year.
