I've been looking at too many web portfolios. It seems sooo much more LIBERATING than print ads, in terms of how much personality you can give your projects. There are some great stuff online, but I have a feeling it's going to get better in a few years...

I enjoyed looking through this guy's set up and the way he explained his branding/web work: http://madebygiant.com/_webapp_131726/Kill_Photography LOL he's trying to sell his team's work online by saying the funniest things, like "Making you GIANT, Makes us GIANT - We know it's cheesy " hahahahaa.... oh vidal sassoon. He also says this:

We have worked as independent freelancers, where...
– we were lonely
– we had no one to toss ideas around with
– we were limited to our own particular expertise


I almost wanna give him a hug. Humble people are beautiful. Anyway, there's also this web site and it can be a little confusing, but it's really interesting. There's a lot to show. Like I said, even though we've been mostly studying the print type of advertising, web is so much more fulfilling because as long as you know what you're trying to sell, and who you're selling to -it's so flexible, and constantly CHANGING. The interactive aspect of it almost makes you forget that it's marketing OR advertising.... :)


Frasier's on!
