• Portfolio critique(trying to find a job)

  Hi - I personally like your personal brand work and your Digimune piece. As a young designer, you're doing a good job of showing your thought process..if im looking for a mid-level designer thats what I'm looking for. The porfolio is a bit light...So I would use some off time to add personal projects. Some great tools out there can help you speed up the process. I use https://goodbrief.io/ on occasion to help me... Source: almost 2 years ago

• Where can I find practice projects?

  So far I've been working with Good Brief, https://goodbrief.io, for logo design but find the briefs are limited with information. Source: almost 2 years ago

• This is my first kinda serious logo design, what do you think?

  It's been a while that I wanted to make my own portfolio but of course, I needed some work first so I worked on this fictional project, Wine. (I took a brief from that site goodbrief.io) Wine is a company that has a chain of stores where they sell second-hand clothing, they stand out for their quality and uniqueness, they want to communicate innocence and at the same time being fresh. Also, their main target is a... Source: almost 2 years ago

  So, assuming you’re going to apply to design programs, be proactive and start designing stuff on your own. You can find design briefs at goodbrief.io, fakeclients.com, and sharpen.design. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Art school exam in 3 days, hope to be accepted in graphic design even if I’m self taught ( 3 years in engineering school haha and it was hell, hope I’ll succeed to get out of here)

  There are lots of tools out there (such as this one) that can generate design briefs. Source: about 2 years ago

• Recent graduate, I feel like my skills are getting rusty.

  I'm in a different boat - I'm growing my skills hoping to transition to the graphic design field eventually (I've been working in libraries, but have a studio art degree) and I've been working on my portfolio a bit by using goodbrief.io and coming up with my own assignments for different fake companies.

• Hi, I`m a newbie in Graphic design (and feel a lot of pain about this). I created posters and logo for fake project (just smth from my mind). I need your critique and advices. Thank you a lot!

  I would strongly suggest you take a look at random design prompts like Sharpen or Good Brief and learn to solve the communication challenges from randomized sources rather than from your own imagination. When we pick our own brain, we're biased. We'll pick ideas that we are predisposed to enjoying. Being challenged by something alien to our personal preference is a vital learning experience, divorcing our... Source: over 2 years ago

• Canva has ruined me as a young designer.

  Https://goodbrief.io/ is one of the many free design brief generators out there. There are a few jobs that specifically look for Canva designers, so it's also good to have that skill on your sleeves. I have to admit tho that I only have used Canva twice for a project but that's also because I didn't have the need to use it. I'd say take it as your unique value proposition while you enhance your skills in... Source: over 2 years ago

• Canva has ruined me as a young designer.

  It sounds like you know what you need to do. Definitely break the cycle. You already know you can't create vector logo files in Canva—start doing it the right way so that you're prepared for your next career move, where they'll expect it. Concur with others on creating briefs for yourself, this is a fun site for just that. Source: over 2 years ago

• Advice for getting into motion design

  I would use sites that generate practice creative briefs (like this, there are probably better ones for motion specifically though https://goodbrief.io/) and try and create some work that way. Isolated bits of animation are not terribly useful if you're not sure someone can adapt their skills to any brief, even if the animation itself is good. Source: over 2 years ago

• Where can I get ideas for portfolio projects as I'm just starting out?

  I'm about to start building my portfolio, but not sure where I can find ideas for projects to fill it out with (basically fictional clients). I found this website: https://goodbrief.io/ that generates design briefs but the web design ones are so terrible, I generated new ones dozens of times but the briefs just don't make sense, like:.

• Hi! It is not real project, just my concept. What do you think?

  If it’s for practise I would recommend Good Brief (or alternative) as it gives some direction for where the design should be going. Source: over 2 years ago
