Can you give me advice in my social media grapic?

Can you tell me if you like the content and relevant or if i should change and what to change?

here is the link:

I don’t have instagram and no plans to get it.

Can you not post the images here for review? I have no desire to add click counts on social media, sorry.

I don’t do instagram either. Your question seems overly broad. Instagram is all about you. Why do you want strangers to tell you want to change and what is relevant?

I have seen your Instagram channel, it is too much colour, just try to find information about this: ā€œColour Theory guideā€. There are too many different colours, and try to use less of them.

And I hope this helps !

The previous comment about your overuse of colours, I have to disagree with entirely. Even though brightly saturated colours are not my personal aesthetic go-to, unless a job requires it, – like your international colour day graphic – I think the comments for you to learn colour theory was a little harsh.

I had a look at your portfolio and there are some nice pieces of work.(FWIW, I think your portfolio is stronger than your Instagram posts)

Overall, I think you have some lovely, clean work. Are there some things I’d change? Yes; but I can see that you already have a good understanding of type and white space and balance – and colour.

It’s not often that I am not critical, but I’d say you are very much headed in the right direction. Keep going.

On a practical level, I’d perhaps look at getting a domain name. Canva is not a great professional look for your URL. It’s good that Canva is a skill you have, but for most professional designers it tells the wrong story. It is seen as a tool for amateurs.

Finally, your home page has a large headline that says, ā€˜stars here’ I am guessing that should be, starts here, otherwise it doesn’t make much sense.

I’d also think some of the language you use is a little esoteric. It could do with changing the tone a bit to be more pragmatic and clear cut. I appreciate that English is probably not your first language. In which case, It’s always a good idea to get a mother-tongue speaker to go through it. I speak Italian fairly well, but if I need to use it seriously, I always ask my ex-wife, who is Italian (and an editor and translator – which is handy) to look it over. I often miss the subtleties – mind you, I do that in English too.

Anyway, if I were hiring and you were looking, you’d definitely be on the ā€˜yes’ pile.

For those not on Instagram, here’s a direct link to the OP’s portfolio site.

Woah! I really like your work — especially your color combinations contrasted against the clean backgrounds. It’s very nice, and I’m not easily impressed. If I were still in a position to hire a designer, I would not look any further. As early in your career as you are, I’ve not seen better at your experience level.

The only thing that bothers me a bit is your logo. It’s simple, clean, and conceptually fine. However, there’s an optical illusion you’ve overlooked. When the top half of an S is the same size as the bottom, it appears top-heavy. Look at well-designed similar typefaces; the top loop is always smaller than the bottom, and for good reason. Visual symmetry is more important than geometric symmetry.

Bit the bullet and had a look

To me their not original works.

Didn’t go through all of them

autocorrect has me driven crazy ā€˜they’re’
