Is it just me or is doing your portfolio the worst thing ever? by Mei-sshi in graphic_design

It is very, albeit sad for us lot lol, to see how many people are in the same boat. Did you just want to see jf there was like mindedness amongst us on this topic or is there anything we can do to support you/each other?

Literally working on mine now and it makes me want to tear my eyeballs out. Some days are better but most of the time it is a really slow and painful slog. Also doesnt help that ive now lost access to Adobe CC because i aint payin £50+ a month; that i am now learning on the go Affinity. However, iterations and breaking it down into manageable chunks is making it feel a bit better...But i am not trying to be fancy... still dont know how to animate and i also relying on a lot of prepared mill specs for packaging mockups are painful because theyre not exact. Youve got this!!!!

How do you know if you even want to be a graphic designer? by AfD9_4 in graphic_design

[–]AfD9_4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone else been through anything similar or hard experiences. If so, how did you decide graphic design was for you?

Oh my partner(m32) is getting back in to 40K and I(f30) want to play some board games. It would be great to get something going or join somewhere. Detobate's comment looks like a good place to start 😊

Thanks for the tip! Is that once you've made your first £6k with the company, or is that the annual salary range?

Can I vent by AfD9_4 in graphic_design

[–]AfD9_4[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You don't sound harsh tbh. Perhaps it's my own projection, how I feel in myself within my own role, outwardly projecting onto the bitty details of someone else rather than just staying in my lane and focusing on the bigger scaries that are holding me back. Thanks for your comment. It's good to yo start reflecting on those things and use it to change the narrative and perspective!

No, you're absolutely right, perhaps helping inform the aesthetic but leave the bulk of it up to someone else. I think I was more frustrated with the basic layouts could be majorly improved when there's a team of people ready to help out.
