What makes a good portfolio? I feel like Iβm constantly lying and itβs a pain in the ass to find clients, even though Iβm confident in my technical skills.
This was the late 90s and I did a lot of experimenting with flash. It didn't take much to impress people back then. Yugop really inspired me so i did a lot of studies on interacting with the audience and it got me in the door with a prestigious ad agency and that made the rest of my career. Sometimes it's not just about client work. What is trending now? AI related projects. You could do a study for yourself about AI and marketing, Ai and web interaction or whatever. How do you think it will work? Show your creative problem solving. Get out of the conventional thinking and do something in an unexpected way. With design they love to see your progress so I always added that material. Every place you apply gets a lot of responses, it's hard to stand out but necessary.
FLASH!
