I wanted to find a way to show the main themes of my skills and how they interrelate to each other. It's fairly light on text and details, which I'm not sure if I like or not. Truth is, there's a lot of information about me out there on the web (LinkedIn profile, portfolio website, bio on my current employer's site). If someone wanted to find more details, I'm only a Google search away.
The Illustrator file is formatted to print on a 8.5 x 11 piece of paper. The upper-left cog bleeding off the page was intentional, but now that I see it within a web page I realize that it doesn't have the same effect as on the printed page, so I that's a problem I still need to solve.
The colors you chose are appealing and not too much a resume. I think the right justify was an interesting way to place the text and definitely moves the eye across the page. Looking at this I get a good feel for skills you possess and your background, but not so much about who you are. I think for me this is missing personal content. FYI, when I look at this closely I can see the circle outlines where the text was placed.
ReplyDeleteGreat design, I really like the color scheme and the way it bleeds off of the left side of the page. I also like the concept of showing how your skills/experience are related, however, I would suggest grouping or rearranging the some of the similar skills like visual design and HTML just because they are closely related, but that is just a personal preference. GREAT JOB!!
