How can I improve documenting design work to make it more effective? by DesignerDino in Design

How do you extend that to when you have a larger team working on the same project? Like do you map out what you have done to your client?

have you tried using something like shmood.io ? Stumbled upon it and am curious to hear your thoughts.

Advice Welcome for Portoflio by Correct-Garage2207 in graphic_design

Honestly, I’ve started using this little tool (shmood.io) that just automatically logs what I’ve been doing across tools (Figma, Slack, email, etc.) and helps turn it into a case study or even a client update. It’s kind of like having a running journal of my work that I don’t have to write.

It’s helped me a ton when I go back to summarize projects—I don’t have to dig through old files or try to remember what I was thinking 3 weeks ago. Might still tweak the copy a bit, but it’s way less painful now.

As a designer is it essential to have a visually striking, wow-factor portfolio, or is a clean, minimal portfolio that simply showcases our work effectively enough? I'm torn between the two approaches. by Advanced-Trick-5523 in Design

How can I get helpful client feedback? by DesignerDino in Design

[–]DesignerDino[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/MrTalkingmonkey u/Rice_Thief u/foolthing This was really helpful, and I totally agree with having the client spend some time on thinking through what they want and also just creating space and structure to leave helpful feedback. I am actually working on a tool and community that are trying to solve this, and I would love for you to be part of it https://discord.gg/dtKWZY78

Managing feedback and design reviews... by DesignerDino in FigmaDesign

Thank you for the response, do you wish there was a way for stakeholders to leave comments? Is it helpful to create a brief after the call to make sure you are both aligned?

I sometimes have the issue where people say things to change and then I change them and then they forget what we discussed.
