  1. STEPS TO BUILD A GRAPHIC DESIGN PORTOFOLIO www.animaster.com

  2. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO GATHER YOUR BEST WORK Have a design series for a recent client you think is your best of all work yet, but the quality of the images is poor or hard to see on a screen? Never fill your online portfolio with ineffective images with weird cropping that will turn off potential clients. Make sure you use high-quality images that will not seem and appear pixelated or blurry on a screen.

  3. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO ORGANIZE YOUR WORK An unorganized portfolio with old work is never going to attract potential clients or keep visitors to your site engaged. Make sure your design portfolio is packed with current work and modern highlights, highlighting a recent design commission by a client or a logo design you made for a recent marketing campaign.

  4. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO CREATE A PERSONAL BRAND Creating a Personal Brand is one prudent step toward launching your professional graphic design portfolio. A professional brand gives a unique presence to reach the website site, which will give your site some sharp branding, and make it easy for clients to recognize.

  5. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO DESIGN A USER- FRIENDLY WEBSITE Attract potential clients and get them to stay on your portfolio site by making it easily accessible, interesting, and welcoming. It should be easy to navigate and user- friendly, with a design that isn’t overwhelming or confusing for visitors to the website. Go for a portfolio website that complements the beauty, uniqueness, and detail of your designs, with a layout that is easy to access.

  6. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO DESCRIBE YOUR WORK Keep your online portfolio well- organized and user-friendly by describing and grouping your work and project, so they become easy to follow for visitors. Make a proper list of all the design work you’d like to include in your established portfolio site and see if you can categorize them by project, such as by client name, or by type, such as ‘logo designs’, ‘social media graphics’ or ‘advertising design campaigns.’

  7. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO SHOWCASE YOUR SKILLS When you combine all together your portfolio site, think about how it can reflect your artistic journey and give visitors a good view of who you are as a creative person in the design world. Briefly analyze how you can share your individual story through your design portfolio, and make it feel unique to you and your story. 001

  8. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO QUALITY OVER QUANTITY Always go for quality over quantity. Just analyze the best of your works and then put it in your portfolio. The images may be less but they should be attractive to grab the clients. Process images of your graphic design portfolio work properly using Adobe Photoshop or other editing tools so they are web quality, with good resolution, and don’t take much load time.

  9. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO ASK FOR FEEDBACK Include a section of feedback within your designed portfolio to get the right reviews from the customers who visited your profile. This feedback provides you with the best way to analyze how your clients feel about your design and what their ratings are for your particular design.

  10. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO INCLUDE BIO AND CONTACT DETAILS While your work alone may sell potential clients, visitors to your graphic design portfolio will most likely want more information before they reach out. You can intensify your work by including an About page with your CV, bio, and other details that emphasize your professional background. You could even add a touch of personality by adding fun facts, like your role models or the most favorite graphic design magazines.

  11. DESIGN PORTOFOLIO PUBLISH AND SHARE Finally, you’ve covered these essential steps, it’s time to publish your graphic design portfolio. You may want to go with your own website too—which includes certain things to review before, during, and after publishing to help your website live its best life and further help in intensifying your career.
