Response: Portfolio critique

I found our portfolio critique yesterday in class really helpful. First of all, I didn't realize I had so many designs to put in my portfolio, which makes me feel a lot better. I've always been scared of the word "portfolio" because I never knew I had enough stuff to put in it. But I received a lot of compliments as well as  constructive criticism. The feedback I received from my fellow designers helped me rule out what I don't want to include in my final portfolio and also helped me decide what I should revise so I can include better pieces in my portfolio. It's always good getting other peoples' opinion on my work because they notice things that I never notice.


Everyone wrote general comments on my portfolio, and after reading them I realize I need to try some new things with my designs and be a little more edgy with my work. I need to face my fear of Illustrator and Photoshop and try more things with those programs and push more elements. I think I have a certain style and it's very obvious in my work. I want to try new things that I haven't done design-wise before but still keep my style of design.
