Week 8 and 9

"If a website takes too long to load, if it's a mile wide and an inch deep, if it's hard to navigate, cumbersome, or corny, that's bad, "says Chris Pullman of WGBH. This is what I have been stressing on for what I want my portfolio to be. I am choosing to stay straight-forward with my work and design layout. I am not looking for a flashy look or stunning design layout. I want the employer or viewer to know that I have created this portfolio for the sole purpose of understanding what I want to accomplish in the field of Interactive Digital Design. Chris Pullman explains that when he is evaluating an online portfolio, he expects to see a wide range of work and an overview of the designer's accomplishments. In my portfolio, I plan on exposing my strengths and capabilities in certain programs I have worked with in the recent years, ranging from Adobe Photoshop to Autodesk Maya. After looking at other print portfolios, I feel like I am gaining a stronger idea of what I need to build on with self promotion pieces. I am looking to possibly create notepads, a t-shirt, stickers, and playing cards to promote my name. When it comes to my individual pages, I want to keep everything aligned with one another. I don't want any scrolling just so that you get to see everything at once. My resume is also straight to the point. Nothing too fancy except for my logo design. I express all my accomplishments and qualities so that the employer understand what I am looking for to go into.
