Midterm Worksheet 8 Steps

Assignment 02

Develop Idea

The goal I aim to achieve through my portfolio website is to create captivating webpages that draw attention, highlight my creative works, and showcase my skills and interests in a visually appealing and organized way. I want my portfolio to effectively present my expertise in photography, graphic design, and film, allowing viewers and potential collaborators to explore my creative projects. My vision is to design a minimalistic website that feels clean and approachable while reflecting the unique characteristics of my work.

Discovery and Research

I explored a range of portfolio websites from freelance filmmakers and graphic designers, observing how they arranged their projects visually and navigated through their work. Each site had its own distinct style, theme, and concept, which inspired me in showcasing my own work and creating a portfolio that captivates others while staying true to my personal style.

Target Audience

My website is intended for employers and recruiters seeking a comprehensive view of my creative projects, as well as film students, fellow filmmakers, and professionals from other industries who may be interested in collaboration. I aim to design a user-friendly experience that is both visually striking and highly organized, making it easy to navigate while encouraging deeper engagement with my portfolio. My goal is to capture visitors’ attention and present my work in a way that invites exploration and leaves a lasting impression.
