Hi.

Story time

Team Mystic FTW

Real Story time

Over 20 years of tinkering

"...what if X could be Y"

My current "what if"

After you've learned the basics,

build your personal brand/portfolio

1. Gather your content
2. Find inspiration
3. Build it
4. Hate it
5. Rebuild it
6. Hate it
7. Rebuild it
8. 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

By the way

Great segue, Nelson!

Summary

• Always ask "what if"
• Find inspiration from everywhere
• Build it fast in Webflow ;)

Make the Web Beautiful
