Yesterday, I learned that I have officially won the Portfolio Campaign contest. My instructors had to check over my files to make sure they were good before I was officially made the winner. Honestly, it feels good to have your work vindicated for once. I haven’t had many chances to show off my work, and now’s my chance.
This also means I got to make a show-stopping table trifold for the campaign, as I am the first person people will see when they walk through those doors. I want to set a good example.
I did not realize how much stuff I had to do because I won. I have to work on the book printing portion now. Which I made harder on myself because I did not do the standard book fold; instead, it’s on the top, which is much harder than you think. Me and my instructor Tony worked on the book production side as we had to lay out pages. Dummy it up, remove/add pages, turn pages upside. It was a big brain fart as it was so much going on all at once. Although I learned many things from that day, specifically when making books. Make sure the amount of pages you have is a multiple of 4.
