Thanks for the helpful tips on the importance of showing your best work but also your process and how you can solve problems. Can you please create videos on your process currently ?

@Schjoenz Год назад

My main problem with most of my project-based clients are "utilizing the spaces" or "don't leave blank spaces" kind of mindset. No matter how I explain to them that "less is more", they just want their design to be crowded which is something I don't like. So I am forced to design something that is not really good BUT, unimaginably, great for their eyes. LOL.. I don't share them in my portfolio though.. My style for crowded design is to choose colors that has great contrast between the subject and the background or graphics that are less important.

@giordanographics Год назад

Yeah, in the end we just accept the fact that the client is paying our bills either we like what was designed or not. Those kind of "messy" designs don't deserve a place on anyone portfolio.

@Drippindigital 2 года назад

ive found that its easier to keep a few portfolios going - one where you can deep dive into a problem, one for a playground, and one for general corporate-projects - I have so much work but its variable on what you want your users to focus on

I found your channel today. And I'm so glad that I did. I needed to better understand what goes into a comms portfolio. Though your video speaks to graphic designing, your core principles and advice helped me shift my thinking. I now get that it's not about showing off. It's about speaking to the problems I'm solving. That makes it so much easier as I live to solve problems. Now I know how to present my ideas. Thank you, sir!

Hi Satori! Can you make a video about what students (like high schoolers/undergraduates) can do if they wish to get into graphic design? I really like your videos and I believe they might have reached more younger people than you expected!

@Optable 2 года назад

My first tips I encourage my students to do: - Find designs you like, save them, and try to copy them from start to finish as close as possible to the finished product. This will both test and improve your skills in your software of choice! - Learn Gestalt theory and find examples of it in the real world/web - Full up your workspace until there’s nothing left! (Negative space can come next after you understand back the dories/principles of design -Study the top designers based on your taste

It’s crazy to me all you learn is not really helping you build a portfolio I have maybe a couple assignments that were portfolio worthy. This summer I plan on working to build my portfolio maybe I can get good enough to freelance while I’m building up a portfolio that’s my goal. This video was helpful I’m going to spend each week during the summer doing my own stuff to build it up. I’ll say it again. I learn more from RU-vid than college. Thanks for this awesome video.

I'm subscribed for a reason - great videos! 👍 Now that AI can be our 'partner' if chosen, creating a portfolio has become testing. The main reason is that AI-generated art, or _work_ , can now be more diverse than ever. The answer to the following might be an obvious 'pick your niche'. Double-edged sword to now direct a team as opposed to having hands-on experience. I haven't had my hands on the actual software eg. Illustrator, PS, After Effects, Audition, etc. for a while. I'm finding myself creating with the help of AI and discovering other things I can create, almost better than the ones I used to manage with the team. I was just directing it before. As AI is allowing us to diversify further, the target audience covers a _lot_ of demographics. So I'm branching out on my own, and looking at my work is like owning albums by Nine Inch Nails, Britney Spears, Avicii, Tupac and Updog, all at the same time! How would you showcase a portfolio with a wide variety of work? This is the gist. It's been a year since you posted this, and I think your opinion about how to create a portfolio _now_ with the advent of AI versus a year ago would be interesting, insightful and very helpful. 👍 This comment was not created by ChatGPT.

"Less is more" is the most important advice when speaking with a Designer (imo). Of course, very important who your audience are. Personally, too often I see designers showing their skills with animations (a lot of animations) and it only manages to confuse our eyes. "Where do I go from here?". I remember back when Flash was introduced. It was a big leap and people went completely overboard. Don't get me wrong, they made some amazing stuff but confused people when it came to navigation. Prioritise Navigation! Make it look good without overdoing it.

1. How you can add value to a potential client and how can you solve their problems 2. What are some of the things we can do to sho wor demonstrate we can solve problems to potential clients - In each project you should outline the problems that the client had so that might be the brands logo - Like how you solved those problems how you used your skills and your experience to overcome those hurdles 3. Hook the attention of the audience or the viewer then deliver the message once you've got their attention the graphic design portfolio is then sell your skills services and any other design project -ask yourself what kind of clients are you looking for? - What kind of people are you looking to attract - non graphics design then go to people whos knows nothing then get reviewed 4. Small amount of work without introducing too many project do use mockups to design your portfolio

@luciathefemininewoman Год назад

Are there portfolio templates for graphic design? I don’t know how to design mine, I won’t design it yet, but I am new to graphic design currently I am an artist that paints and draws. And I felt drawn to graphic design because of designs and logos that every company or brand has. For example, Nike has logo for their sneakers, the Apple logo for the Apple products, and Microsoft logo for their products and applications everyone uses. I am still new to graphic design and I’m hoping to learn more.

@marcol.9125 Год назад

I would say: Yes, it‘s necessary. It builds trust because potential clients get to see a real face behind your brand for example. Maybe a short video introducing yourself and your work would gain people‘s trust even more. I mean, how do you feel visiting a website with and without a portrait of the business owner? Or how you feel watching a video of the person? On the other side, who are the people that would never reveal their real face? That are scammers for example. And if you show who you are, people tend to trust you more. That‘s how I see it.
