How to prepare your porfolio:
For many publishers, it is important that the portfolio received is tailored to their editorial line. We believe that this preliminary work will give better results and will help the meeting between editors and illustrators to be more productive.
Each appointment you request must include a portfolio with the name of the publishing house or agency to whom it is addressed. Any appointment request not providing its respective portfolio will not be considered as valid.
Each portfolio must have a maximum of 2 pages and, in total, a maximum of 4 images. Also, it should include your full name and contact details. The file must be submitted in PDF format (500 KB maximum) and named: FirstName_SecondName_Category_PublishingHouse.pdf (ex.: FirstName_SecondName_AlbumSpain_Milrazones.pdf).
Send your appointment requests to until June 30 (included).
* Ilustratour Team work as intermediaries getting in touch creators with the professional market and organizing schedules of all participants through the process described above.As we are out of the decisions of publishers and professionals who participate in this activity, we can’t guarantee that you are going to have appointments.If your portfolio would not be chosen by any professional you have requested, you may not get any appointment. Thank you and good luck!
