personnal recap : 1- tell a story 2- focus on your process 3- explain your desicions 4- consider the portfolio itself 5- get sh** done :)

Thank you very much. It’s intimidating because I don’t think it’s good enough but I will expose what I have, right!

[@elizabethpetersonhall137]

Clear, concise, and helpful! Love the color palette!

[@drawitout]

Thanks for this. I feel like I could use a lot of help getting my portfolio in good shape. I am trying to move from a traditional publication company to more branding and illustration work, but my professional portfolio is limited to the magazines I’ve been designing, and they are not all portfolio-worthy pieces. I hope you consider making more videos. The ones you’ve created so far are high quality, and you will get plenty of new followers over time. I will try to share your videos when I can. Thanks! ❤️

you're so sweet! thank you 🤗

Thank you so much for this. Making a portfolio was giving me a brain aneurism from stress.

[@d7oomyksa803]

idk why you don't have thousands of subscribers i just saw two videos from your channel and i really really like it, i thought you have 100 thousand or something but i when i saw you subscribers i was shocked

[@Wdesigncouk]

What a great video, thank you! Found it really helpful as I am just pulling together my first portfolio. Love all your animations and editing too, LOVE!

[@kn1fes1lenc3r]

This was great! Taking a leap of faith into graphic design and it has been a bit daunting haha, this video really helped me understand where to start.

[@preetkaur-kk1uf]

You are my saviour... Seriously!! I desperately need this!! Thank you so much! 🥺🥺🥺

[@jarofdaisies938]

The knowing when to stop was something I needed to hear I go and go until it’s perfect but it never is so then I stop not on jobs but on even my own personal art work then I come back to it months later to work on it 😂 I got just know when to stop because it’ll never be perfect.

[@chuchay0521]

Thank you for the tips. It really help me decide where to start and what i need to do first. ;)

[@momijiacero8695]

[@mahdireza5695]

I've always loved being creative but I've just recently considered building up a portfolio. I wanna show that I'm capable of many graphic design skills and diverse with my creative skills with animations, logos, posters and all that jazz.
