Portfolio Visit

Now I have my Portfolio finalized I wanted some feedback about it. Unfortunately the design company I was taking it to had to cancel as they had a last minute meeting with a client. Which is fully understandable. Fortunately I was able to see Thoughtful at such short notice. Stuart and Chris sat down and looked at my work with me. As I had designed a booklet instead of a box they were a little concerned but after speaking to them about my reasons we decided that it is a good idea to have as a sort of leave behind as well as a portfolio box.

As far as my work was concerned they seemed very pleased with it, they advised that I had a good body of work and it was laid out well. Stuart added that the book was very simply laid out and felt clean and light weight and was nice to look at. Small things they both picked up on was the leading and positioning of the type I had used to explain each brief. I have taken this into consideration as they made it obvious me to that the small things will be picked up on and noticed more than the work itself.

Overall I was very pleased with the feedback I received from Stuart and Chris as they have given me confidence in my work and also made me think that everything needs to be checked over and over again to ensure that no mistakes are made. I am hoping to get more visits over the summer so I can get more feedback from different people.
