I have always been taught that first impressions are crucial. Whether presenting a design portfolio or meeting new friends, personal presentation tells a great deal about your character.
First impressions are vital in the design world. As a senior design student, I need to present my portfolio as well as my personal branding in a way that makes me unique and memorable. To jumpstart this process, I have been sketching and rattling the right side of my brain to create a logo that embodies myself as a designer as well as a human being. I began this process by mind mapping how I see myself and asked others to write down how they see me. By researching, I was able to record my process as well as avoid “mucking” around on my computer. This approach was extremely helpful because I am now able to intelligently explain my design choices.
Not only are logos and design pieces important, presentation is very significant. A young designer needs to hold confidence in his or her work as well as in his or herself. Researching the proper way to design and deliver my portfolio has made me study myself and evaluate my goals. I have never tried to design for myself and now understand how difficult the process truly is. Logos are challenging because I want others to see me in a certain way. It needs to capture who I am as an individual and set me apart from the rest of the world.
Now, what will it be…?
