I just picked up issue #40 and my old teacher Henry Hikima was in here. I am an avid reader but also a new portfolio member. Although CMYK is well known as a tangible publication, it has stepped into the realm of the immediately accessible internet. Articles and current issues can be viewed on the site, but the main goal and purpose is still to help students get noticed. In doing so, CMYK has developed one of the first and most prestigious online portfolio packages for students. While a place to host your work would suffice, cmykmag.com lets you upload a resume and also keep a blog. While the magazine is where many agencies and talent seekers do their recruiting, the possibility of being published in the 70,000 circulation magazine is also quite nice.
CURRENT COMPETITION:
Enter up to 15 pieces in the most high-profile emerging creative portfolio contest in the nation for the opportunity to be published and seen by an industry of creative decision makers across the globe. Entries will be judged by today’s most influential professionals in all fields. Open to current students, recent graduates and the self-taught.
Deadline: Monday, 28 July 2008.
