I like cd-rom portfolios – especially mini 3 inch cds – they look crisp.

I certainly agree that having a paper based portfolio and not just an Online one is a good idea as it does not look very professional when somebody asks to see examples / evidence of your work and you have nothing to show them. Good post Gino.

I have a nice wood grain portfolio from Veer

I also have a more disposable black plastic portfolio tat I can give out if needed, plus my online portfolio.

I think clam shell is ok if you have a lot of odd size work that won’t fit in sleeves and actually books and other printed items.

I am a recent Visual Communication Design graduate. I have a job now but I need to update my student portfolio to a professional one. Currently, I have a clamshell with all my pieces in wells. Should a professional portfolio be like this or should I transfer everything to book form? I would really like to know if the trend is book form. It was going back and forth between clamshell and book when I graduated.
