This lesson introduces the Inventory module, where students review their current portfolio, clarify their career goals, and identify what work should be kept, archived, improved, or replaced. Students will prepare for a portfolio review so they can enter the projects module with a clear plan for building stronger, more career-focused work.

This lesson explains how the portfolio review process will evaluate a student’s reel, project order, clarity, focus, length, presentation, and alignment with their career goals. Students will complete the Strengths & Goals Assessment so their feedback can be tailored to their skills, weaknesses, interests, and next steps in the animation industry.

This lesson guides students through completing the Inventory Evaluation Form so their current portfolio, demo reel, and individual projects can be reviewed clearly. Students will organize their work from strongest to weakest, share video links, and submit the form so they can get targeted feedback before moving into the projects module.

This lesson wraps up the Inventory module by encouraging students to use their review notes, portfolio evaluation, and goals assessment as a guide for the projects ahead. Students will move into the project modules with a clearer sense of what they have, what they need to improve, and where they want their animation career to go next.
