I enjoyed creating my logo and I am happy with the final product. It is simple and readable but also has a bit of flare with my corgi mascot. I think it represents me pretty well. I choose a more technical looking font as I am looking to go into the 3D world, but my cute hand drawn mascot hopefully shows I have a love for character creation and animals.
I like my portfolio, I think it is easy to navigate and use and allows you to see all of my work fast and in a professional way. However, I am a bit worried it is too boring looks wise, as it is all black/grey and white. I don’t know whether I should add some colour onto it or leave it as it is.
Though my CV isn’t bursting with colour, I think it looks professional and is easy to read, which I believe is more important for a CV. Also the way I have laid it out, though simple, makes it a bit more interesting than just words on a completely white background. However, part of me still wonders if it should be more colourful.
And finally, my showreel, or in my case showreels. I think having and animation one and a modelling one is good, plus it will allow me to apply for possible 3D modelling jobs as well as animation. The background music makes them more engaging and the information provided at the bottom will give potential employers extra insight into how I make my work.
