What should I put in a 2D Animation portfolio for art school?

I am a senior in high school interested in 2D animation with ADHD and Autism but also have wrestling during the winter. I also have ideas for a story along with tons of characters involved. What type of pieces should I put in my Portfolio? Should I try making a character design sheet? Should I have a charcoal piece or do I need a story board? Or even a short comic piece? I'm planing on making an animation reel. But what are some ideas? Also what are some good procreate brushes for line art and sketching?

How to do an art therapy portfolio?

Hello, my name is Briana and I would like to ask any artists or art therapists of career village: how did you organize your portfolio and what type of work would you recommend including? I imagine it varies program to program, but I was simply curious. Knowing once I do finish with my bachelor's program, I will need a portfolio to apply to said graduate programs and would like to know if I can save current art work I've made from my classes so far or have a list of upcoming suggestions when I can later make them. Thank you in advance for any responses and I hope you all have a good day! #art #psychology #college #art-therapy #artist #firstgeneration #masters #career #bachelors #portfolio #career
