"...what if X could be Y"
My current "what if"
After you've learned the basics,
build your personal brand/portfolio
- Gather your content
- Find inspiration
- Build it
- Hate it
- Rebuild it
- Hate it
- Rebuild it
- Just launch it already.
Gather your content
- Solutions to those "what ifs" and past work
- Everything you've learn and tackled to finish those projects
- List of skills
- Past experience
- Your Story
Finding inspiration
- Commercials
- Movie and Video Game UI
- Package design
- Other Websites
Building your portfolio
- Tell your story first
- Be unique, not a robot
- Make your site a filter for you
Summary
- Always ask "what if"
- Find inspiration from everywhere
- Build it fast in Webflow ;)
Make the Web Beautiful
