Portfolio Site Brief
We have to come up with a design for our portfolio. I want to do something emphasizing my two skill-sets. Design & Business. I feel the best way to show who I am is to show how these two things relate and influence each other.
Brief
Assignment 3
Pick our top firm to work for right now, come up with a project concept. Pitch it.
Career Skills Assignment 1 + 2
Define the ideal job on 4 criteria: Industry, Environment, Discipline, Geography. I took a free-form creative approach to this assignment. I felt that laying out my “demands” per say was the best way to determine where I want to wind up. I realize that being new to the industry will limit my negotiating power at first, but I feel that knowing what I want is important.
Assignment 2
Choose 20 companies I would like to work for. Rate them on a scale of 1-3, 1 being extremely desirable, 2 being very desirable, 3 being desirable. List potential titles I qualify for. Provide a sample of their work. I have found I need to be in an advertising/marketing/interactive firm that allows me to participate in both the creative side, as well as the client side. As I stated in assignment 1, I am not one who likes to be locked in a cubicle all day. I like to see people.
