Porfolio:Here are some ideas , I would like to implement for my graphic portfolio package. Now, that I know how to use the laser cutter at school, these ideas would be fairly simple to implement. I like the screw-post portfolios because you can always add more pages or remove some (of course the numbering gets messed up...but I have to figure a way around it). I really like wood covers or plain black, haven't really considered acrylic because of hte fumes while cutting it.Let's see...
Portfolio Size: I definately prefer smaller than the standard 11x17 portfolio. My last one was 8 x 5, which is not so small that you cannot see the images , but when you open it up, it gives you nice long page layout, which helps for story-telling of the projects.
Other graphic materials: Business cards and DVD covers should match the portfolio covering. Since, I am going for the laser cut cover , I think similiar approach would be nice for the rest. I love the chipboard business card above-it looks so raw and at the same time perfect. And , it will be fairly inexpensive and easy to do.
Here are some examples of my previous graphic layouts and what I am going for:
