What should you put in your graphic design portfolio? How many pieces should you feature in a portfolio? How should you show your design work? How do you get hired as a designer right out of school?
In this episode two of Young Guns Season 2, Chris Do and Melinda Livsey look at the designers’ portfolios. They break down each designer’s portfolios and talk about what works, and what they could improve on.
Can you see any connection between your work and theirs? What was your takeaway? Did you learn anything? How will you use what you heard in this episode to step up your own portfolio? Let us know in the comments below.
