This is my first attempt at the mini portfolio that we made as part of the PPD task of emailing our portfolio out to some of our 'design heroes'. I don't really have heroes, so I just made a list of the agencies whose work I really like and some of those were people who'd done talks at the uni for us, which I suppose was a bit of an in. The more I look at this first attempt, the more I cringe and think 'ergh'. But don't we all?
In truth I only sent this one out to one person, Alex at The Consult, and the feedback I got from him really drove it home that this was not a good portfolio. This is what I got from him.
'Hi Hannah,
My main issue is none of your work is summarised and the images are
really tight, so I can't really tell what I'm looking at. Try looking
at it as if this is the first sight of your folio – needs some
explaining or clearer visuals.
Hope that helps,
Alex'
Which is fair enough. I really don't like this portfolio
and am going to get right on doing another one.
