YOU NEED AN IDENTITY TO SELL TO CLIENTS
AN ONLINE PRESENCE AND A PRINT PRESENCE
how do you present your work and yourself?
(*internal screaming*)
VISUAL IDENTITY - 'Brand You' Stationary and Promotional Material
- LOGO / BUSINESS CARD / BESPOKE TYPFACE?
ONLINE PRESENCE - WEBSITE / BLOG / SOCIAL MEDIA
CREATIVE CV'S
A standard CV does not exist, in the realm of creative CV's anyway.
This is flexible and taylorable and should be unique.
Display important info : Portfolio / Website / Name/ Address / Contact details
Profile: About me??? Talk in third person
What do I want to do? What have I done already?
Education : GCSE's aren't so important to put down
Employment & Experience: Live work, Exhibitions, Entering current competitions (emphasis if you get anywhere with it)
Skills& Experience
References on request
I am sufficiently afraid of making regular CV's so a creative CV is totally terrifying, as I am perhaps 4000% more self deprecating than the average human being. Can I use self deprecating to my advantage? Maybe but it's probably not a good idea while getting started. Trying to think about what I do well is a bad time for everyone involved because I can never find anything that I truly think I do well, distinctly average.
