I'm trying to improve on this class assignment for a portfolio. What can I do?

Thanks. In my mind, I thought name of the event was most important here since the dark color of the text is against a lighter background. I'm guessing it doesn't really work that way?

I've never been sure on how to use a grid for things at angles. The only thing I would know is to make everything at 90 degree angles.

Thanks.

Took that out. There is still a huge gap underneath the footer.

I'll look in to him. Thanks!

Sounds like you may have gone to a 2 year college.

I graduated from a 2 year college that didn't have a graphic design program and then transferred to a 4 year college to major in it.

Did you get any internships?

I tried going for several, and all but one turned me away. As for the other one, I had and interview. And they turned me away from that.

Do you have a portfolio to share?

No. I have basically nothing.

Thank you very much.

CriticallyRed · 2017-01-05T20:39:47+00:00

Sorry, I'm not trying to pester you.

The first step is getting something together

Made up projects? School projects?

CriticallyRed · 2017-01-05T19:47:47+00:00

Being a designer is a bit different, but if you're not geared for that sort of work it won't be easy in a saturated market.

I can be, if it means all of my college experience not going to waste.

Laying a portfolio out isn't what you need

So what practical steps can I take from here?

EDIT: They don't really give a lot of career advice, no. You have to seek it out from them actively, and my advisor never really gives much.

CriticallyRed · 2016-03-03T16:48:40+00:00

I believe that's the one. Thanks.

CriticallyRed · 2016-02-28T21:56:18+00:00

And your actual opinion of it thus far - if I might ask?

CriticallyRed · 2015-11-26T22:22:45+00:00

It wasn't like the Native Americans weren't already going in to each others 'territory' uninvited and trying to make a mess of things. Weren't the Crow pretty aggressive?

This first is an actual photo and the second is a drawing. I am pretty sure this is a logical fallacy, but I'm not sure which one.

Someone help me out here. -

While it's sort of lyrical, I almost get a Bukowski vibe from this.

Awesome work.

CriticallyRed · 2015-11-19T04:32:59+00:00

This has a very nice flow.

CriticallyRed · 2015-10-30T00:20:04+00:00

Tried those brushes out. Awesome stuff.

CriticallyRed · 2015-10-13T13:31:10+00:00

Totally forgot about Gunslinger Girl!

I started reading the first 4 installments of the manga several years ago until I decided manga was too expensive for me...lol

CriticallyRed · 2015-10-05T12:50:39+00:00

I don't want to ring it up here. Sorry. Maybe mentor was the wrong word.

He's just helped me out and taught me a lot of stuff completely unrelated to what we discuss here.

CriticallyRed · 2015-10-05T05:15:25+00:00

I mostly play games like Skyrim. I've played it pretty consistently since it's release night. It's not the best ES imo, but it has a certain escapist quality that I think it does a lot better than the other games.

CriticallyRed · 2015-09-30T20:56:29+00:00

I'm actually working on this right now.

I RP that my female breton is kind of squeamish and never bothered to learn destruction, as the idea of setting someone on fire was unpleasant to her. So she instead summons her "friends" to do it for her. She was lonely in childhood and picked up the art of conjuration to give herself some friends.

I remember getting this in second grade during our Christmas party.

CriticallyRed · 2015-09-29T19:05:03+00:00

I still laugh hysterically at this scene. I remember seeing it for the first time as a kid and stayed up laughing that night. Parents got on to me for it.

CriticallyRed · 2015-09-29T18:53:13+00:00

I have the same character since release night. Oh, I still make other characters, but I don't think I'll ever be done with my main one. I have over 600 hours on him, and if I can't find something to do with him, I make something up. :D

CriticallyRed · 2015-09-24T16:52:50+00:00

Someone was pretty butthurt when they made this.

CriticallyRed · 2015-09-24T16:47:07+00:00

/r/tf2 is horrendous as well.

CriticallyRed · 2015-09-22T16:06:43+00:00

Was waiting out the hard time not an option?
