Resource of the Week

Motion.Ed

I’ve received a lot of questions about animation and motion from my TikTok posts. This resource by digital design studio Zajno is perfect.

Motion.ed teaches the principles of motion design for portfolios and client work. The site itself applies these principles as examples, and includes additional resources and courses.

Check out Zajno’s work here.

Something Gorgeous

Mini Moog Factory

I love electronic music, and this week’s SG features a virtual experience by Pentagram, development partner Counterpoint, and Moog Music.

The virtual museum celebrates the Minimoog Model D and Bob Moog’s birthday, with rooms like Instagram face filters, build-your-own-synth, and a jukebox room. Illustrations by Roby Pybus and sound design by Yuri Suzuki.

Portfolio of the Week

Self Aware Studio

Looking for an interesting way to present your projects on your portfolio homepage? Self Aware, a digital design studio in Philadelphia, previews projects using multiple images instead of a single header or masonry grid.

Their case study pages include just enough copy to convey mastery and expertise.

Portfolio Rating: 8.3/10

Built using a custom product but replicable in Webflow or Framer.

One Thing I Learned

Something New Coming Soon

This week I shared a TikTok video about a new portfolio website design inspired by over 100 portfolio reviews.

Check out the design, called “Front Page,” inspired by classic newspaper layouts: View here

I’ve also been updating my website and would love feedback on homepage updates.

I will keep you updated as this gets closer to finished.
