Personal Branding

Today we had to think about branding ourselves.

It's not long until the end of the year, and a good idea is an online portfolio to promote ourselves. I've seen many examples of this, like J.K Rowling's website, etc.

I wanted a sleek, professional look for a website at first, but then I decided I wanted something more me. I love animation and designing children's stories, so an idea I had was having a little version of myself guiding you around my website.

It took me ages and my eyes are still a little cross-eyed from staring at the screen for so long - but I put a rough draft in Illustrator. It's of me with my old longer hair, and on each scroll she's getting frustrated with the hair, and so, in the end, she cuts it off.

Then you can see, at the end, me with short hair.

You may not able to tell, but I cut my hair, and it inspired it.
