My website for initial submission (formative feedback).






Mark: 62/100 

Feedback
  • Apply consistent branding across my website and social media. This has still yet to be created.
  • Inject more of my personality into the site. 
  • Continue onwards with Squarespace - price reasonable for freelancing.
  • Improve copy text - especially on my contact page
  • Also include an about section to make the site more personal
  • Create more professional images. Create digital mockups that present my projects in a professional light (use Yung Tea for example). Paper models look shabby. If I could recreate these in a digital mockup the project would look so much more put together. Leading on from this, creating other outputs across multiple projects would give the lead images as well as the project pages depth (pick out branding, colour, mockups, physical products, create videos/animation etc.) Try to vary the project as much as possible in terms of items for presentation. 
  • Curation is good as it shows a range of projects and skills - this could be tailored when applying to different studios eg. for a branding studio you would lead with branding projects, packaging etc.
  • Create more hands-on stuff like the beat gif as this shows fun and personality, and a different approach to creating things, as opposed to clean digital stuff.
