Portfolio

Since my specialist area is animating, I found it hard to decide what to include in my portfolio. In the end I mostly included screenshots from my animations since this is the most relevant imagery I've created for my future.

I wanted to create a booklet, similar to my project report for Responsive, except considering the cover page more. I want it to reflect my style and suit the rest of my work, so I thought using the same layout as my blog would make sense. Here's a few mock ups I made of potential layouts on Photoshop, I prefer my final choice because the start boarder doesn't sit too far into the page so it looks more like a boarder rather than an unfinished pattern:



Final Cover

I used Photoshop to put together the pages and saved them as one PDF file because I'm familiar with the software and could focus on creating the layout in reasonable time. Overall I am happy with the choices I made; In order to show off my rendered pictures from Character and Narrative and my qwertee designs, I put them first and last. I've learnt from experience with applying to college and university that putting your best pieces of work first and last will give off the best impression. I haven't done many character designs or storyboards, none of which are of good quality, so using some coloured screenshots from a couple of my best animations made the most sense.
