Creative CV

Today I finished my creative CV. I wanted to keep it fairly simple and concise and clear enough read. I also added a few small drawings as finishing touches which I'm quite happy with as it shows I enjoy working traditionally and it contrasts with the text.

Gathering Ideas and Inspiration For Creative CV

Today I've begun to think of some ideas for my creative CV. I started off by looking at some examples of others' creative CVs to give me some inspiration. Here are a few that stood out to me the most:

I like how this has been laid out like a newspaper, making it
more fun and giving it a bit of context. Drawing little illustrations
for each of the different sections is also a nice idea as it gives you
a chance to show your style and that you can draw different things
which is always good!

I also like the idea of a limited colour palette as it
gives the overall CV a look of professionalism. The way
he has introduced himself is also quite fun and informal

Although I don't want to type a lot of text as the employer
might not read it all, I do like the colours used in this and
the patterned background. Compared to the two above this has
more of a hand-drawn feel which I think is because it is an
illustration CV instead. Mine will follow this route more
 as I focus on traditional media.

This is a nice and simple idea which I could pursue, with one illustration to the side.
The descriptions about the person are short, concise paragraphs that get straight to the point
which is what we were advised to make sure of during the workshop. Again, use of
limited colour is appealing.
