Tutorial #2: How to become a TVC talent (Profile and Portfolio)

How to make a good profile and portfolio:

1. Profile or biodata should be no problem to you guys. It's just a fact or information about yourself. It's like writing a resume for a new job application, but it is more on to your physical details. In addition, if you have exposure to tvc and print ad before, it would be bonus marks for you!

OK, I'm trying to be kind to you guys. I give you a profile template so you can just copy and paste and just fill in your details. But it is just a template! You can add-in any information of yourself if neccessary:)
