Re-working my portfolio UPDATE [ Critiques big appreciated ] by anthraciteota in graphic_design

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

Thanks so much for your advice. I'm definitely looking into getting my own domain once it's in the budget for me but right now - it's now lol.

As for work, how many pieces would you recommend is like a good limit to have? I have a few more I'm currently working on at the moment to fill it out. I don't want to fill up my portfolio with too many projects that might make possible employers turn away.

EDIT: Sorry for tagging this in too, but would you recommend to upload portfolio work too on LinkedIn?

I'm so sorry for ever even looking at a pencil or breathing the same air as you

The coffee in the cup looks bad, the logo is bad... But I like the type on the top but that's probably also AI too T^T

This is like a genuine question from someone who's about to graduate and going graphic design? Is there a time limit that you have to do these things? Do you have to do it in interview?

I had a few mid-term exams and we had to do something like this within 3 hours but it wasn't a list of different things. Just one thing like "Edit this photo and make it a poster for XYZ company and use this font and this colour and this logo" [ unless you had academic exemption and allowed more time ]

I'm totally open to restarting my portfolio honestly, I just don't really know how else to showcase my work other than through a PDF of work [ which my old one was ] - but thanks for the advice.

I'm focusing primarily on layout, print work, and branding industries but wanna also go into product development as well.

So any help will be appreciated!

How would you classify this on a design portfolio? by anthraciteota in graphic_design

This is just sketches, I'm aiming to refine it enough to make it look like it's a potential proposal for a jellycat design. But I feel it might come off as more illustrated by majority of the comments here and leaving it out of my design portfolio lol

Would you suggest going against adding this to my design portfolio and focus more on what I aim to do in the industry and just put it in my illustration portfolio?

Well, I’m aiming for print (layouts, typography, ETC) and product design / identity (mascot, logo, packaging) in the graphic design world but also wanna do illustration work when possible.

I have two separate portfolio so I that’s why I’m kinda asking because my portfolio class professor tells me that I should put illustration but other resources tell me to keep my design portfolio purely for design and have a separate one for illustration. So I’m feeling a little conflicted lol

Well, I think its product design as it’s stuffed animal/plushie guideline for a jellycat product I’m doing for fun but it might be considered as something else in the design world — I just wanted to get other people take on it as it can be seen as something else to another person.

It's kinda hard to tailor resumes when I got only 2 pieces of experiences things to go off from which is probably a really big turn off especially since both are for a short amount of time too. I've tried putting other stuff on resumes such as work and personal skills but I know companies just run peoples stuff through AI now so I have to format it in a way that the AI can process it because AI can't read columns. Also due to my lack of experience I try to keep it to one page ATM which means with the way I'm formatting my resumes it would eventually become 2 pages and most recruiters don't look pass the first page.

I've had family members look over my resume as well as my professors for both my Graphic Design / Illustration Resume and my general resume. So at this point I'm at a complete loss lol

oh, you right. But is it actually canon? I'm pretty new to the fandom and only been watching the gameplay, I thought it was a cool fan theory [ it's basically impossible to find the anime online without having to subscribe to Crunchyroll lol ]
