[@asifas1742]

Hey , I am third year student and I would Like to show my Portfolio for review by you...Where can I send the link?

[@zahrialeo-rhyne1452]

I am a Statistics and Demography major, I am currently on a L.O.A. At first I started out freelancing and got my client in my first 3-6 months in graphic design where I designed a Brand Logo, FB banner, and added a free social media post design. After that I took this more seriously, not to just freelance but to become a graphic designer. In my 10th month I got a job offer from linked as a Junior UI Website Designer locally. I was asked to share a portfolio at the time, I didn't have a portfolio so, I had to share a business website I was working on for a business my chemist and I co-owns. I just celebrated my 1 yr anniversary as a graphic designer and having an IG business page. I am taking some graphics designing courses now, watching youtube and designing everyday. How do I stand out and compete with persons who have formal knowledge in graphic design? I've narrowed my skills down to brand strategy/brand identity | UI/UX Designs | Packaging & Label Design. Lastly, do I expand my interest?

Amazing video, I learned a lot as a beginner. - first impression - put context- very important - your work don't speak for itself - always ask who, where, what, why, how, what's the relation to this and that - build trust - put the overview, challenge, goal & make it clear - what value it will bring to your client - consistency- 3-5 solid examples/projects or put "experiments" for unfinished projects - double check spelling and grammar - use/put captions - have empathy, don't assume that they already know - share unique POV - be clear in your specialization Thank you so much!

Petrula in the whole video had so much empathy, kindness and not-judging mentality I haven´t experienced in my last few months as a designer... She sees the glass half full, not half empty. Need more of her. :)

[@jmacuna]

Honestly at first, I thought Petrula was just nitpicking on the portfolio but as I follow through up to the end of the video I was like "DAMN!" she just called out mostly the mistakes I usually make. Props to her and her in-depth constructive criticisms. I really admire how she really explains it thoroughly. With that being said, I will fix my portfolio from scratch!

[@Huwan_Art]

I do really appreciate the different lenses (perspectives) coming out from Petrula and Matt on how to create an effective portfolio, get the sweet "Yes" of the client, and get through the layers of hiring process. This content is TRULY a gem for aspiring creative people!

[@GuyPorteous]

Petrula is low key savage and full of wisdom. Thanks for calling out all the good quotes

[@MorganTDaniels]

Petrula was my instructor at Art Center 30 years ago. And she still is teaching me things here. Just a wealth of knowledge and such an amazing grasp of design and the business aspects of it.

[@htetaunglin9553]

Me as a junior in graphic design field, this video gives precious advices about how to nail a portfolio and I would like to say Thank you to Ms. Petrula and Matthew for this insightful episode

[@janamitkova8603]

This is so valuable! Especially for self-taught artists as it's a pure source of helpful tips and courage that we cannot get from almost anybody else, because we didn't go to design school. It would be so nice if you could make the next one with newbies only - meaning self-taught designers with no experience and no work with clients yet. We are thirsty for more! Thanks again and keep it going

[@forgetthes5824]

I went to a design school but I don't learn any thing about how to present my designs, portfolio, how to pitch a design... Anything of that really. It's sad

[@Elle_M717]

We had a portfolio class at my school but things have changed since then.

[@symboliceon1]

Thanks to Petrula for confirming (just after the 47 minute mark) an idea I had as not being totally ridiculous: Creating a section of my portfolio site specifically for ideas that aren't quite "case study" worthy, but demonstrate what I'm tentatively calling 'snippets of process' - analyzing and redesigning a portion of an established app, for example, or expounding on a sassy screen I've mocked up for a Dribbble shot.

[@margaritapanayotova7181]

Tips I liked: - adding a niche and your design specialty and expanding on the about page - idea about adding an "experiments" section - I have lots of those but not enough projects. This has been holding me back from creating my portfolio and applying for jobs - sequence tip - I have been looking for inspiration from other designers' portfolios and now many (that I have seen) follow a sequence Thank you! I loved this video! It helped me work on my portfolio case study write ups.

Wheww! I know I am not doing the extra work for nothing. Coming from a background where English isn't my first language, I always ask my friend to proofread for me even it's just an Insta post because I want to show professionalism) 15:40 - I just recently learned from Michael Janda that I should use "we" even though I am a freelancer. Doing so will change the dynamite and the client will change their perception of my business. I guess I need to state my role in a project. Got it. 37:00 - Your work does not speak for itself.

[@watchyourst3p]

it should!!! When finding a product on an aslie competing with 5 or 6 different brands next to it, your JOB as a designer is to communicate just with visuals. Not always you will find a sales person explaining and displaying the product for you to taste. I totally disagree with her there.

[@angelaengle12]

This is interesting that the hiring process is all about trust. As someone looking to get hired, I honestly have little trust for employers having the ability to give pay raises when I am not only deserving of it, but also to keep up with inflation. I have been burned this way in the past and I have quite a salty attitude about trusting employers giving proper wages. To add insult to injury, when I hear phrases like "You are being paid what you can be replaced for", it really hurts.

[@skaterfugater]

53:45 "leave a time stamp comment below" how ingenious. its easy to do, not much of thinking, it engages comments by more users, it is hard to resist by others as they want to know what has been said there and it even increases total watch time since anyone acting on it will rewatch some of the video. This was the most genious single thing i have ever heard any youtuber say to get that youtube algorithm to work for them. It was so genious infact, here you go i did it.

[@jilianryan562]

I love the incredibly specific feedback each of you provided. Thank you for putting this information on KZbin! I needed to hear that my POV is valuable and that the viewers of my portfolio are interested in the process and context. Coming from 6 years designing in-house without a creative director, internal clients (and I) often forget how much thought goes into the work, and busy business managers can easily brush past the thinking stage. My takeaway is that I need to own this process and get better at communicating its importance. Thank you!

Left my laptop for about an hour while it was still playing an architecture site analysis video, and when I came back this video was on the screen. I ended up watching the entire video and subscribed. Amazing content, I learned so much

[@inescapabledesignbyinesmun1121]

The whole thing was great but I particularly loved the reinforcement of the value of context and that you know your project, it’s only obvious to you.

[@elder411]

A key insight was the mental state of a reviewer. They don't want to make a mistake by hiring the wrong person. So, one must assauge that fear and increase their trust. As a designer, that will guide how you make decisions in all touchpoints of your portfolio. A question designers can ask is "Does this help the reviewer trust my abilities more?" And proceed from there.

[@eddiemontesa5623]

The concept of instilling trust with your portfolio and having context with sequence I found to be a valuable lesson. Additionally, having empathy for the audience is critical in communication between the client and the designer.

[@TheChocolatiie]

[@andreamarchi309]

52:38 I loved that Petrula actually opened up to the world of in-house designers, talking about the necessary assets they need just to get into the list of possible candidates. As Petrula was mentioning, the more structured companies are, the longer will be the ladder to climb for a prospect, ending with having to face at least 2/3 interviews with different people depending on the company hierarchy. It is a world worth exploring and I believe It would be great if this side of the Futur, could provide more insights to people about the in-house designer environment and how to get jobs there.

[@heynoella]

Love the balance of your perspectives and your gentle approach to the critique with explaining your critiques. I think even with having gone to design school, a lot of the context of someone's critique - like their experiences and people they've worked with - gets cut out for time's sake. So these videos are always helpful. I'd like to see critique of some more designer / illustrator portfolios and how you critique illustration in context of graphic design!

4 years after, this still a gold mine of valuable informations. I especially would like to highlight that having 2 specialists is just crushing it! I've seen so many videos where ther is 1 person saying this saying that... but most of it feels like kind of a joke at the very end because: 01. 1 person only get the trust you give him 02. I'm talking about very famous chanels here. Those people doesn't even follow "the rules" they are giving. Sometimes because it's made for people that are procrastinating, so well... not gonna to be very valuable content, but damnly basic stuff like 1+1=2. And sometimes they are just trying to look like they are top highest damn good designers... but when you look at their website, they don't do what the tell to do, and the exemple they tooks (and criticized) where in fact just way better than their own work...

Beautiful. I went to a 2-year tech school where we mostly just learned how to use the tools.
