No matter what medium you are going to be working in, as a Graphic Designer, you will be expected to be able to draw the traditional way. You should include at least one pencil drawing of a human figure - drawn from life, not a fantasy/comic book character, one still life/objects composition, and a few anatomical studies such as hands and heads. If you can't get a model to sit for you, visit one of the anatomy sites (there's an excellent one linked from www.3d.sk) and use one of the photos there. For objects I used an old pair of Doc Marten boots and (the old favourite) a few vases on a table. In my experience employers may be bowled over by my fantasy/SF/Glamour stuff (I mainly draw in India Ink) but what has always clinched it for me has been my "real life" drawings. That came about because I falied an interview once, due to not having any real life stuff in my portfolio. The company were good enough to tell me what was wrong so I went about putting it right. Since then I have walked into every single graphics job I went for.
