| This is going to rock! |
Here is the prototype cover for my portfolio so far. I am really excited to finish this thing, you have no idea!
I don't think there will be much else to do with it, it's alright as it is now, I think, until someone points out some glaring mistake that I missed, and then I will redesign the entire thing. Though as simple as this cover design is, I'm confident that this is the final design as much as it is the prototype.
I still have those last few pages to work out; an intro page, and a back page where all my social media urls and "thank yous" will go.
I have been using the lulu.com photobook builder for this project. not too bad really... I am still figuring things out as I go, so I do have to backtrack from time to time, but it's an intuitive process. They have a lot of presets and make general layout really easy. However, I am thankful that there is the option to upload full page graphics, as their fonts, layout and lettering options are far too limited for my purposes.
As you may have noticed, the title of the portfolio is the same as this blog. not an accident as I think they are kind of extensions of each other, or at least that is my plan down the road. As I complete the book, I intend to redo the header graphics and backgrounds for much of my social media pages, unifying all of this stuff visually. it's been a while anyway, and it all could use a little updating.
Back to work! I hope to wrap up these last bits for the portfolio in the next few days, and get a proof copy in my hands as soon as possible!
Thanks for reading!
