Portfolio tutorial, business cards and CV . . .

I managed to figure out a way of laser cutting more than one business card at once. The first attempt didn't work quite so well, as I hadn't lined the page up properly, but the following cards worked really well. I've booked in again for May time so that I can have some more printed in time for GFW as well as a few spares for after I graduate, as I will no longer have access to a laser cutter. Below are the four finished chosen designs -


I also had a tutorial with Gail just going over the first steps to putting together my portfolio for this unit, everything is looking good so far. I've got a lot of samples to go into it, so I need to get these done over Easter. Gail came up with a good idea at making some of my image pages more tactile, by having one or two of the images printed onto fabric, relating to the publication and my own individual style.

Gail also looked through my updated CV, which is going to be printed on the same inscription paper I'm using within the publication, with my name at the top of the page stamped, again in keeping with the style of my publication. She only had time for a quick flick through, but said it was looking good. I'm going to wait to get it printed until we've had Anne's lecture on putting together a CV, just in case I've missed out or included something I shouldn't.
