Graphic Design Portfolio
**Portfolio Preview**
My name is Trent and here is some of the work from my College Portfolio….I graduated in December 2006 from Texas Tech University…I currently have an full time in-house design job with a stable company, and parttake in some freelance work on the side when time allows.
I posted this in hopes it could help anyone who is studying graphic design to prepare their portfolio for the real world. It’s a tough and very competitive field to go into, and your portfolio is your most precious possession to the rest of your career.
Good luck to any and all of you.
**ATTENTION MUSICIANS/BANDS!**
I love to work with the music industry….so if any “up and coming” musicians or bands need logos, concert posters, advertisments, etc…and don’t want to fork over the big bucks…I am your more affordable answer!

Every time I open a file in Illustrator that I created in Illustrator, it renders it and takes a long time?
How do I stop it from rendering every time I open it? I need to open it in Fireworks too but I think because it’s rendering, it’s taking ages and I’m not sure it will open at all? Help please!
do you understand how illustrator works? Unlike JPEGs and PNGs, which are called raster graphics, Illustrator files, like SVGs, must be rendered every time you show them. Rather than containing a grid of pixels, they contain a description of what to draw and where. The advantage of this is that you can grow the image without a loss of resolution. The disadvantage is that you have to render it every single time. The only way to avoid it is to save it in a raster format, which will cause you to lose details. And anyway, that’s what Photoshop is for.
How do i retain a transparent background when i apply a filter to image in Photoshop?
I erased a bunch of stuff on an image and it was fine and kept the transparent bg when i saved it as a jpg, but when i applied a filter to it, it had a white bg when i saved it and there was nothing i could do about it. What can i do to prevent this (it shows a transparent background but when i save it it has a white background)?
That’s normal. You need to save your picture as Photoshop file – *.PSD *.PDD
What is the difference between a VST Plugin and samples downloaded?
I want to know what the difference between a VST plugin and a sample ex: (that you add to the impulse drum machine in ableton live)is…
Thanx A lot
VST plugins are much higher quality and are usually instruments. Samples – do you mean like sampled from like an old song or drums? or soundfonts? Soundfonts are instruments but the quality is nowhere near as good

How do i start my graphic design business with not enough income?
I recently received my BA in graphic design my spouse is still in college and we are having a hard time already just trying to pay our monthly bills. I can’t find a job in my field so i work an on-call type of job thats pays minimum rage. i know if i could either find a job in my field that i would/could make more money for us. We just don’t have the extra income to start my own business up or have anyone to ask could we borrow it from so what could or what do we do?
Start it as a part-time side job. You may need to do some volunteer work and spec projects to get a portfolio of work to show your skills and ideas.
Use craig’s list to advertise your business.
Try to use the temp agencies to get your foot into the door in your field. Christmas season is coming in retail. Apply to many Mom & Pop stores or a larger retailer to develop a Christmas ad campaign and brand. (Including window treatments and store design if you have the skillset.)
You are going to put yourself out there if you want your business to succeed. It won’t come to you…
