Advantages & Disadvantages of a Digital Portfolio
Advantages:
If it is a digital portfolio, it is very easy to update and very easy to go back and change things without having to change masses of the portfolio.
It is also a lot easier to show what software you are capable of using by just taking simple screen shots, and annotating the screen shot.
Disadvantages:
If it is a online portfolio and they dont have access to the internet they cant see the portfolio so this means they cant see your work.
Because the work is digital the person who is viewing the portfolio wont be able to get a real feel for the work you are presenting to them.
Reasons for uploading a digital portfolio:
If you are always uploading your new work that you are doing if anyone checks your portfolio and comes back to it again they can see all your fresh work, and if a client is looking for something specific they can see everything you are capable off, then your portfolio wont get dated.
