Concept Overview


I am teaching some students for the entrance examination of my college school. The one session of this exam is the in-person interview. The core concept of this video is to briefly introduce the key points of art major interviews. This can be the pre-training video for the formal courses. I use motion graphic animation and illustration style, which makes the video interesting and understandable.

Pain Points


  1. Anxiety and Uncertainty in Interview Preparation: This is one of the primary pain points faced by art exam students. They may feel anxious due to a lack of understanding of the interview process, evaluation criteria, or how to showcase their talents. This uncertainty can lead to nervousness and a loss of confidence, impacting their performance in the interview.
  2. Lack of Understanding of Evaluation Criteria: Students may not have a clear understanding of the expectations and grading standards of judges in art exam interviews. This lack of transparency may make it difficult for them to prepare in a targeted manner, preventing them from effectively showcasing their best attributes.
  3. Lack of Interview Experience: For many art exam students, an interview in the context of arts can be their first formal interview experience, especially in a highly competitive and professional environment. This lack of experience can lead to students feeling lost during the interview, unsure of how to effectively present their skills and personal charm.
