Website layout is clean and neat, and most of the work appears to be presented really well.
Wheelchair project is really good - really well thought out and shows competence in rhino , SWX, and manufacture. your prototype looks awesome
RIM stuff - show some sketches! hand sketches would be great, maybe context…as it is you just have isolated renders or prototypes that don’t show a greatdeal. even if that’s all you did in your internship then you should add to it now.
Birdfeed doesn’t really show me anything at all… some nice pics, but why that shape, why that material, etc etc.
Moonbuggy - show YOUR part, what YOU did. it says you did only the seating…show WHY your part is awesome. the project looks awesome but show why you made it so good.
Cosmos Urn is just a pretty rendering and some text that is too small (in the image)…it doesn’t really show anything besides imagination and a pretty render.
Airrigation seems a bit impractical and maybe expensive. every project like that i’ve seen since the soda bottle+bleach light has just seemed meh to me. It looks cool though!
The acrylic sculpture is more of an art piece and should be labeled as such. can you get it installed anywhere? I don’t know how big it is either…
I love the spalted end tables! It looks beautiful and is something I’d love to have in my home. I wish I knew more about woodwork.
The reverse engineer thing is very much a studenty project. it shows good understanding of what the inside of an injection moulded part looks like. I think the best part of this would be showing the DETAILS - get us some close ups of the tech drawings to show you understand all the nitty gritty little details.
You should match up the colours in your eames renders - picture 2 & 3 make the leather look olive. it’s great rendering and modelling, but just use PS to match the tones. should only take 5 minutes.
Your whole site and a lot of your graphic work is very much the Swiss style. It is clean and functional and I like it. some people might get turned off but you get all your points across well.
To finish - I’m not a hiring guy, i’m looking for work too. Take my opinions for what they are, but maybe i noticed some things you missed. Overall your portfolio is REALLY well presented, the website is schmick, and you have great skills in what you do (make sure you show what YOU did, not your team!).
Good luck to you Andrew! If you could have a look at my folio and give me some tips I’d be stoked.
Cheers,
Ed
