Breadth Info
What is a 2D Breadth Portfolio?
Learn to use 2-D design principles to organize an image on a picture plane in order to communicate content.
Principles include:
Unity/Variety
Balance/Emphasis/Contrast
Rhythm
Repetition
Proportion/Scale
Figure/Ground Relationships
Demonstrate mastery through any two-dimensional medium or process, such as graphic design, digital imaging, photography, collage, fabric design, weaving, fashion design, fashion illustration, painting and printmaking. Develop technical skills and familiarize yourself with the functions of visual elements as you create an individual portfolio of work for evaluation at the end of the course.

What is a Drawing Breadth Portfolio?
Explore drawing issues including line quality, light and shade, rendering of form, composition, surface manipulation, the illusion of depth and mark-making through a variety of means, such as painting, printmaking or mixed media.
Readers look for engagement in a range of the following:
Form, Content, Pattern, Depth, Tonal Values, Line Quality, Perspective & Spatial Systems, Composition, Drawing Surface, Means of Representation & Abstraction, Materials, Techniques, Styles, and so on...Develop technical skills and familiarize yourself with the functions of visual elements as you create an individual portfolio of work for evaluation at the end of the course.
Breadth= ie. variety.
You will submit 12 pieces (digital images) that demonstrate proficiency in a variety of ways; media, concept, style, etc.
From the College Board 2D Design website, "In the Breadth section (Section III), the student is asked to demonstrate a serious grounding in visual principles and material techniques."
- 12 works; one image of each is submitted
- You may not submit images of the same work that you submit for Concentration. Submitting images of the same work for Concentration (Section II) and Breadth (Section III) may negatively affect your score.
- If you submit work that makes use of photographs, published images, and/or other artists' works, you must show substantial and significant development beyond duplication. This may be demonstrated through manipulation of the formal qualities, design, and/or concept of the original work. It is unethical, constitutes plagiarism, and often violates copyright law to simply copy an image (even in another medium) that was made by someone else.
