Why add video to your electronic portfolios?
|
 |
|
It
is much more exciting to give a potential employer or
graduate school recruiter a CD-ROM or a Web address to
your dynamic E.C. portfolio
with video, than a plain resume. An E.C. portfolio
with video components
can provide an interactive
and exciting
presentation
for an audience. The different technologies available
today allow for unique ways
to produce a
portfolio with various methods to display information
such as video.
Digital video equipment, video editing programs, and varying
ways
of
creating professional videos now enable new and unique ways to document skills.
Video can
be a great vehicle for illustrating a point or creating a visually dramatic presentation
to grab the attention of an audience. One method is the use of video as an introduction
to an E.C. portfolio. Another would be to complete a demonstration. Just as a
text based introduction of a job seeker could be used on the first page of the
E.C. portfolio, so could a video clip with snap shots of the potential employee
in various places displaying small clips of them at work. Just as a text explanation
and pictures could show the work of a job seeker, so could video clips, but with
actual exhibitions of their products at work. |
