Portfolio Tips :)

For PPD today we were looking at advice on how to make sure your portfolio is fab!
We were told to choose 5 tips that we thought to be the most important/relevant... so here's mine:

1. Think about everything - colour, size, layout etc. of the work inside and even think about how your actual case reflects you.
2. When choosing the work to go in your portfolio be selective! You don't need a bulky portfolio if the work in there is good enough.
3. Also, view your work as if you were someone else, and imagine it in the context in which it is meant to be seen.
4. If the company you are interviewing for specialise in a certain area of graphic design, make sure you have relevant work to show.
5. When it comes to the interview you should know your portfolio inside out, so that when you talk about it it sounds natural!

So there we have it! Now all I need to do is use these points while I am developing my own portfolio!!!
