Creative Portfolio: Annual Report
An annual report represents a juicy job for any designer, but the work can be rough. An understanding of the company in question, a trust between a designer and that company, and a willingness to forgo some creativity when it comes to dealing with financial pages is a must. In this article, Linda demonstrates some annual report problems and how to avoid them as you begin to create an annual report sample for your portfolio.
Linda Goin
Linda Goin carries an A.A. in graphic design, a B.F.A. in visual communications with a minor in business and marketing and an M.A. in American History with a minor in the Reformation. While the latter degree doesn't seem to fit with the first two educational experiences, Linda used her 25-year design expertise on archaeological digs and in the study of material culture. Now she uses her education and experiences in social media experiments.
Accolades for her work include fifteen first-place Colorado Press Association awards, numerous fine art and graphic design awards, and interviews about content development with The Wall St. Journal, Chicago Tribune, Psychology Today, and L.A. Times.
