did you know that Adobe has a portfolio
builder that you can utilize to make
[4]
your very own graphic design portfolio
what does that people welcome back to
[8]
Satori graphics and today we're going to
take a look at the awesome portfolio
[12]
builder by Adobe now just a quick
disclaimer hashtag not sponsored because
[17]
I am not sponsored by Adobe or anyone in
today's video I just find this portfolio
[21]
builder really interesting and really
helpful so do follow along and see if
[25]
you agree with me
Adobe has created an awesome piece of
[28]
software to create your portfolio
now Adobe portfolio is completely free
[33]
for those of you who have a Creative
Cloud subscription now that can just be
[38]
a single application or multiple apps
but if you pay a monthly fee for
[43]
Creative Cloud then you can use Adobe
portfolio now you simply need to sign in
[48]
to your Creative Cloud account in the
top right menu here but before we get
[52]
into the portfolio creation side of
things let's quickly check out an
[56]
example of somebody who has used in
daily portfolio now is having a browse
[61]
over these examples earlier and I saw a
totally awesome portfolio that you have
[65]
to see and I portfolio was made by
niklas now you can see how on his home
[70]
page the logo at the top has a rollover
function which is really neat but also
[76]
the interface cleanly slides down over
the background image which is something
[80]
I really do like a whole lot now also
each of its project thumbnails is spread
[86]
across the entire screen and it actually
fills up the color when it's rolled over
[91]
but if we head into one project you will
see that he has kept the style and the
[96]
layout the same throughout the entire
portfolio and there's even the
[100]
possibility to embed videos directly
into your portfolio I personally think
[105]
this portfolio is really stunning and
this is the kind of thing that you can
[109]
technically make using Adobe portfolio
so very briefly what are the key aspects
[116]
of Adobe portfolio well firstly you can
link a custom domain name to their
[121]
website and you also have the ability to
link your site to Behance
[125]
so you can share the work between the
two platforms really really easily
[129]
the designs are very responsive and
that's all achieved with no knowledge or
[133]
experience of coding required I
personally don't do any kind of coding
[137]
because I never learned that skill so
it's really useful for me but there's
[142]
also many many themes to choose from and
it should be noted that you can actually
[146]
make multiple websites from just one
Creative Cloud accounts so let's dive
[151]
into how to actually set up a website
using Adobe portfolio now when you log
[155]
in by default
you have your behance account linked so
[160]
adobe is going to import your Behance
projects onto this websites
[164]
now if personally abandoned my Behance
account many years ago because i do in
[169]
fact have my own folio websites so these
are some of my old projects that adobe
[174]
has picked up and transferred but yeah
just as an example to show you guys
[178]
today I place this Apple Mac Mac image
from my background and I'm using a theme
[183]
called martyr in case you want to know
to make adjustments to specific areas
[188]
just click the blue icon here and then
enter into the settings this is where
[194]
you can change the background image and
obviously if I was going to change it
[198]
I'll just hit the remove image option
you then have the layout options for
[204]
your image and also the overlay color
and opacity I really do like the overlay
[209]
option because it looks really neat and
also sleek on the homepage itself all of
[216]
your edits are in real time so you can
see the adjustments as you go with the
[220]
portfolio creation and then here you can
adjust the layout for the header text as
[225]
well as the font and the style too so as
you can see the design is very
[230]
responsive and neat when you scroll down
over the homepage this is built into the
[235]
theme I chose but do have a look over
the themes when you sign in
[239]
so over here on the left is the toolbar
and this section allows you to manage
[243]
your content below the homepage section
now I can drag and rearrange the order
[248]
of my projects which were imported from
Behance and speaking of the hands this
[254]
is where you can activate or deactivate
a setting for linking your website to
[258]
the hands if you do turn it off however
all of the projects will disappear from
[263]
your website and if you want to simply
start from scratch on this website you
[267]
might want to do that so obviously the
blue icon here is where you can add a
[274]
new project into your portfolio there
are quite a lot of settings that you
[278]
probably should take a look at yourself
but to name a few you can track your
[283]
website's analytics such as traffic
sources and volumes and that's by
[288]
linking your website to Google the use
of meta tags is really helpful in
[293]
boosting your website's search
optimization and that is something you
[297]
really want to address if you want your
website ranking on Google search so you
[302]
can try and rank it for things like
graphic design or logo design now below
[306]
here you have some things like the
thumbnail for your social media sharing
[310]
and a few other backend site settings
too so now going back to my projects
[316]
below if you again click the blue icon
you can edit the layouts
[320]
of your projects by adjusting the
margins here you can also dictate how
[325]
many projects are in a single row and
also you can change the alignment and
[329]
stuff too however importantly for the
overall look and style of your websites
[336]
you might want to edit the rollover
settings this is how each thumbnail is
[340]
going to appear when a user hovers their
cursor over a specific item so just as
[346]
an example I can see if - a purple from
a red overlay and also as we saw earlier
[351]
you can even just have your thumbnails
black and white and then when someone
[355]
rolls over them with the cursor they are
filled with color another recent feature
[362]
from Adobe is that they provide you with
a domain name but also now they've
[366]
linked up with namecheap
so you can buy one from there or you can
[369]
simply use one you've already purchased
somewhere else
[372]
but it's a quick tip if you can I
recommend securing the dot-com version
[377]
over your domain because that's going to
rank a lot easier in Google search terms
[381]
and you can check out places like
Namecheap or dyno dots because these are
[387]
really two good domain registrar's that
I personally use myself so yeah there is
[392]
today's video and I'm still getting
submissions for the portfolio critique
[397]
that is gonna come Friday so do stay
tuned for that video because there is
[401]
some really interesting and some really
awesome portfolios you guys have sent to
