If you’re ready to target big name clients with your work and land dream gigs then look no further than The Ultimate Portfolio Builder!
This advanced, seven-week course will help you build a comprehensive, commercially viable portfolio to present to buyers, clients and employers, all so you can land your dream design gigs.
Drum roll please for our two new contributors … Scribbler and The Art File!
Experience of working to briefs is essential to building a successful design career, especially if you’re just starting out – but imagine getting the chance to design to live briefs from real companies that won’t just give you valuable experience but could also land you a great job or your first big break!
That’s exactly what you get with the Ultimate Portfolio Builder: the course that’s written by pro designers for pro designers to give you everything you need to supercharge your design career, including technical masterclasses, in depth teaching, trade show advice, individual reviews of your design work by industry experts, and of course live briefs from companies looking to scoop up fresh new talent!
We’re delighted that not one but two NEW live brief contributors have just come on board for the next round of Ultimate Portfolio Builder, which starts this Monday, 10th February – they are both incredible companies and we couldn’t be more thrilled to have them and who join us alongside Cardmaking and Papercraft Magazine.
The Art File is an award-winning design led publishers who specialise in providing the highest quality greeting cards, stationery and gifts to retailers worldwide.
Scribbler make cards and gifts which are stocked across the UK and also ship internationally. They describe themselves as being largely about humour, and say they are always on the look out for something to make them laugh!
Don’t miss opportunity to get your work seen and potentially licensed!
One student said:
The live briefs were extremely valuable to me as I have never worked with an outside company before that had set specific design requirements and deadlines. It made me really think outside my currently design style and push my boundaries.
Can you see yourself designing for either (or both!) of these companies? Would you like to see cards and gift wrap featuring your designs stocked in shops near you? Now’s your chance!
