Reacting to 14 portfolios super-fast

Better Call Mike here :) Thanks for reviewing my website. Yeah, the whole reference is to Better Call Saul, but I think he was a good lawyer lol I did some research before I dediced to go for that name, lawyers do actually have a good opinion on Saul and the whole series hahaha
I get it that not all lawyers will aprove "the lack of seriousness", but I can live with that 😀 Cheers 🍻

This was so good and educative to watch. Helped me understand the dos and don’ts of a portfolio. I hope we get more

[RaduPNT]

Ran, I hope that you and your family are safe and well!

[davidcapuzzo]

Wow, when clicking on the video I doubted about the quality of advices we'll have because of this very short time review limitation. But actually, the fact that it is short show the mindset to have when doing the website to make our information clear and concise for any recruters. Great concept, can't wait to watch the other video of this serie

Ran, been watching the news and thought of you. Praying you and your family are safe. What’s happened is horrible and we stand with you.

[nickolove-lovemore]

I was so relieved to see you posting on X. I can't imagine what you must be going through but you're in my thoughts and prayers. Be safe.

steffin hirth and ashwin pradeep kumar both are really excellent and creative portfolios thankyou for the amazing video

[thaitranvan]

Shilume here. Love the feedback🔥 Exactly what I need for desert this dinner.
The site is actually a kind of an experiment as my initial draft is a normal scrollable page, I really want to try responsive without the luxury of vertical space and sure as hell, it was difficult 😂. Probably gonna re-design in a couple months.

It feels like you're relying on your own personal tastes too much. The whole "hiring managers like small text" thing. Also Ozge's pixelated image - you went straight to it and started interacting with it. Pretty sure it did its job!

[LH-gblh]

Great reviews! You are also bring it in a really nice way, very gentle.

[healthadvice]

Designers if you feel like ran doesn't like your portfolio while you follow design essentials dont bother because hiring managers/ people has different taste in terms of design so maybe it wont work for ran but other people hire you because they love it

[nguyenthiminhsang]

pls, do more series review portfolios like this. I love it so much

[OlahJozsefBotond]

The effect of scrolling images at 5:41, what is it called? And how can it be done? :) Can anybody give me a bit of help or explanation there? :) Thank you in advance!

[mattbeharry]

I actually really like Ozge's photo interaction for her headshot. It makes me want to hover on it and reveal/see who she is.

[farzana_uiux]

Love this series. Love to see more like this.

[thebetterme]

Loved the work n thunder clap.

The 3d is super cool

[antograph]

This is great, hope part 3 will be coming soon

How the heck do you prevent orphans in webdesign? Is there a CSS property to prevent that?
There is text-wrap: balance, but that's for headings.
It's also not Indesign, but webdesign and responsive, resize your window and the orphan is gone.
