I get complimented. And then I get "we'll contact you later" (and never heard from them ever again). That is how my interviews went... In your opinion, is my work any good? Or is it so-so? bad?
@v4jr4: I've sent it to Malaysia, the Philipines, Aus and NZ. No replynsp far. And I'm Vietnamese, my passport is green - I guess I do have a better chance in Vietnam :/
So... I am not in the graphics business... I do not buy graphics productions... and... at one point in my life I wrote 3D graphics programs... polygon rendering and ray tracing... so I know how this works. And, while I am a 1000 miles away from being an expert, I have created my own simple animations in Blender. I know the difficulty in creating realism in 3D.
I am an engineer by training and inclination, not a creative artisan... although, from time to time that side of me bursts out. I am very creative in my own right, just not on the graphics computer screen.
Now that you know where I am coming from, I say that your website is MIXED... from two perspectives.
First... what are you? A photographer? A videographer? a 3D modeler? An animator? An artist using digital paint brushes? All creative, no doubt... but what are you? Who are you? I think your message is lost by trying to be everything. Separate websites for different content. And decide what it is you want to do.
Second... if you are into the world of 3D graphics modeling and animation, your portfolio is insufficient. Where are your models? What have you rendered that is complex/cool/unusual/unique?
I don't mean to sound like an arsehole... and... you have two entries under your Motion/Graphic link. The first is the newsreel entrance... nothing wrong with it at all... except that every last TV network in the world has something similar. You've demonstrated that you are competent in creating animated images... but what you have isn't exactly much different from BBC, CNN, Al Jezerra. Do you see that you have demonstrated competence but not creativity? You want to be hired? You need to be a step ahead of the competent people.
Your second entry is too simple. I've animated a gingerbread man, with lighting, and camera angles... honestly, this one looks like a Saturday morning cartoon. Yes... one model... duplicated... run on several animation paths. But... no lighting, no complex model, no complex animation... honestly, I think this one hurts you in the professional world because it it too simple.
I think you should step back and ask yourself exactly what it is you want to do, then focus on the to the exclusion of all the others. If you want to be a videographer, then expand this section and dump the rest of the crap.
If you want to be in 3D modeling and animation, then focus on that piece... this is one of the harder areas to excel, and therefore more of a challenge, but at the same time, less competition and better compensation.
To close, I read that you want into graphics houses, with 3D in mind. If I got that right, then you need a model portfolio... how good are you as an ARTIST... what do you create in terms of models... whether it be furniture or outer space monsters. People like me, engineers, marvel at the designs that come out of people who seem to live in the other side of their brain.
And second, how good are you at effects? Can you demonstrate skills in lighting and camera movement? How good are your materials and textures? Could you create an animation of a ship on rolling seas, moving into the sunset with clouds rolling by? In short, can you demonstrate superior skills in creating a world, putting your model into that world, then lighting, tracking, and tracing to create a real masterpiece?
My $0.02. You are a young person with much potential. I think you need to focus. Hope my critique helped.
Oh and my photography is on DeviantArt and they do attract some people... But that's about it 
I am waiting for my bf to finish his 3 years bond before we move. Singapore is getting extremely unfriendly - I helped an auntie on the road the other day and she shouted at me with all sorts of hateful comments because she found out I am not a 'true blue Singaporean'.
