Introducing the Portrait Portfolio
We designed the Portrait Portfolio to be as dynamic, versatile, and mobile as our members. It's your creative calling card.
Every Portrait member receives a portfolio that pulls in work from public film databases and professional links. This is intended to get you started. You can edit and update your portfolio any time.
If you need help or have any questions, send a note to sarah@onportrait.com.
Make Your Portfolio Your Own
Adding new work on Portrait is simple.
Update Your Info Any Time
Tap the “Add Project” below your title to add new creative work. Tap the pencil in the upper-right corner to update your headshot and basic information. The more detail you add, the more likely you are to show up in relevant search results.
Add Projects Manually...
Upload images or embed video from YouTube or Vimeo. You must use an “embeddable” link with a unique code string of numbers and letters (https://vimeo.com/1234).
... Or Import From Databases
Click "Import Projects from Film Databases" to review and add credit. Edit and add more detail after import.
Note: on a given film, your first-listed role on a film database is pulled in. Edit this after import if desired.
Edit your projects
You can edit your projects easily, at any time.
