I want to build a personal portfolio so my questions related are as follows:
- What should I include in the portfolio apart from Home, About, Work, Contact?
- I have never worked on any real life examples so what to display in the work/portfolio page?
- What kind of design samples do I need to include? Ex: Website, Logo, Banner etc
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Answer
What should I include in the portfolio apart from Home, About, Work, Contact?
That is not a portafolio. That is the CV. Be carefull on publishing adresses on a web page if it is not a business adress.
I have never worked on any real life examples so what to display in the work/portfolio page?
Display what you have done, you can not show what you have not done… I know, lame answer, but a profund one.
What kind of design samples do I need to include? Ex: Website, Logo, Banner etc.
Ok I am going more serious this time. Take a look at this question: Whose persona should I consider while designing my portfolio?
You are a seller of your work.
-
What do you want to sell?
-
What product you have?
-
What product you do not have but want/plann to produce and sell?
I personally do not give a hoot :o) if a great image, logo, web template is not used by a real business. If it is good it is good. So my answer is: prepare a good work.
