Hire Me?! - The Portfolio Handbook

The UCID Class of 2012, created this handbook with the goal of helping students produce their first portfolio.

  • Advice from professionals
    We reached out to a broad range of professionals for input. Learn what they want to see in your portfolio.
  • Advice from former students
    We asked recent graduates to share their advice on making portfolios. Hear from former students currently working at awesome jobs.
  • Master sketch page
    We break down what it takes to create those perfect ID sketch pages. Everything from layouts to how to scan and clean up analog sketches.
  • Tell compelling stories
    Portfolios are about the stories you want your projects to tell.
  • Understand typography
    Learn typography basics. We advise you on what fonts to use, how to use different fonts together and how to construct paragraphs.
  • Learn hierarchy
    Master visual flow and page hierarchy. We want to help you make sure the most important part of your project is the most important thing on the page.
