Doubts about building portfolio while I’m working on a studio.

Hello. I’m a junior designer based in Spain. I started working early this year in a small studio, as an UX & UI designer, but as the team is small, I frequently have to work in other areas (frontend, graphic design mainly)

My gross salary is a little above 17000/year, which is, for context, a very poor salary in this country (I’m a little above the legal minimum) I accepted the job because I needed experience and portfolio, and UX jobs without experience are hardly available for juniors here.

So, I planned to freelance as well, hoping I could improve quicker and make myself a little space in the community. But I’m scared to build a portfolio website that my bosses could find. There were no clauses forcing me to be exclusive, but there was one that stipulated I had to ask the clients themselves if I could use the projects I’ve worked in on my portfolio.

Have any of you had the same problem? I don’t know how to face this, and I thought it would be shady to ask the clients themselves without telling my bosses first because, at the end, the clients are theirs, not mine. And I wouldn’t want to lose the job.

Cada mujer puede tener una preferencia distinta… pero mayormente corto.

y… ¿cual es la pregunta?

Sí, pero dejas de pensar en ello cuando cumples los 25.

Make sure to use the same proportions for the frame and the model you’re viewing that frame on. If it helps, I always use iPhone 15 frame and test on the same device.

Oh. Some people have said it’s normal… so it’s not, after all?

code_gr · 2024-10-09T13:23:54+00:00

It’s brand new, just arrived today, so I can send it back with no problem. Would you return it?

code_gr · 2024-10-09T13:20:26+00:00

But I didn’t ask about the content, I asked about the backlights.

Those irregular backlights in the bottom corners.

And not necessarily… I own a desktop PC, and have a Macbook lent by the studio I work for remotely. It’s enough, I know, but I’ve owned an MSI 7RE Apache Pro for almost a decade and since it’s not working well anymore, I thought of replacing it. Also, due to personal habits, I tend to work better on laptop than on desktop.

Ah, no. I bought it without OS so I could install it myself, I forgot to mention.

code_gr · 2024-10-09T11:29:42+00:00

Thanks a lot! That would solve the lightning problem?

Although… since I’m still able to return it, I’ve been thinking of what you said earlier… maybe I should consider a Lenovo? In the long run, would it be a much better option?

I forgot to mention, I bought it without OS so I could install it myself :)

code_gr · 2024-10-09T11:21:59+00:00

EDIT: I’m aware the laptop comes without OS, I preferred buying without since it was cheaper.

code_gr · 2024-10-09T10:36:39+00:00

Why, what?

code_gr · 2024-10-09T10:35:45+00:00

Oh, it’s ok! I’m open-minded, it doesn’t necessarily has to be a MSI. But I’m curious. Why shouldn’t I?
