  My Portfolio

I've been working on a portfolio overhaul, which has been considerable - over the whole month of August. Can't believe it's Labor Day weekend!

I plan to post pics of my work on Flickr (see my link below left) if you're curious.

Also have been building my website, which has been dormant since I graduated in 2006. It's been work to review Flash, Dreamweaver, etc - but hopefully well worth it once I get the site up and running again.

My efforts to create this are to land the job I want down the block from where I live. It's close enough where I could walk or ride a bike. The principal is an alum from my school. He invited me to his studio for a portfolio review, as he likes to see what "inmates" have done since he graduated.

It would be so sweet just to get employed especially doing what I went to design school for but then, I applied at JPL and Trader Joe's, so that says something about the job market out here.

We're eeking by on hub's' salary, but am so glad he has a great job at Kaiser - at least to keep us going. Once I land a job, it'll help out with my school loan mainly, and secondarily, replenish savings.

Meantime, it's the same ol' thing... tweaking the work. Have a nice Labor Day weekend!

I agree with jondude...the more striking your work as it stands alone, the less need for gadgetry in the show. Glick...

Don't add much motion or Flash. Skip sound or music. Let your work do the job. Most people don't have high speed internet and Flash. Sound and any kind of animation takes longer to load. KIS.

If you go to my Bookmarks section, left side toward the bottom, you'll see Flickr. Click on it and it'll take you to my Flickr site. Leave feedback if you wish - I enjoy reading comments from folks!
