AP Studio Art Digital Submission Guidelines

I've received come information from College Board about how we will be submitting your portfolios. We will submit them online, which means we won't have to mail in anything except your five quality pieces! No slides!

From the College Board web page:

"Beginning this school year, the College Board will implement a digital, Web-based submission process for the three AP Studio Art portfolios. For the May 2009 exam administration, portfolio sections that have traditionally required slides will now require digital images instead of slides. Please note that changing from slides to digital submission will not change any of the content requirements for the portfolios. The Quality section for the Drawing and 2-D Design portfolios will still require students to submit actual artworks, and the number of images required for all sections will remain the same.


Requirements for Students’ Digital Images

File format: All images must be submitted in JPEG format (file name extension .jpg).

Image size

Landscape orientation:
Recommended maximum size: 780 x 530 pixels (10.83 x 7.36 inches)
Recommended minimum size: 480 x 480 pixels (10.83 x 7.36 inches)

Portrait orientation:

We will format and upload all files in class, so do not worry if you're not sure how to do any of this. We will do our first photo shoot the week of October 13th. Start bringing in any work that you would like to photograph--okay to bring in anything you've done within the last year or so.
