It's that time of year, when you're getting your portfolios together to interview for an internship or your first job out of school. I've had many requests to show my work portfolio as an example of a CMF design portfolio. Here's an extended version -- it will need to be more concise and tailored to the company and job you apply for.

** Please note, a portfolio is different from a case study. Case studies are focused on the project outcome, the results of your work. Case studies show the ROI of CMF design and include social proof. I'll explain the differences in upcoming videos.

Sit back and enjoy the show. Write any feedback or questions that you have in the comments section and I'll be sure to answer them!

Hey, my name is Katie and this video is a small peak into my design process, special interest in cmf design (colours materials finishes) & lighting. The general process depicted in the first part of the video is later on presented through an example of my work - Tocco Solare experience sunlight indoors. Please see a product launch video created for Clerkenwell Design Week 2016 here: youtube.com/watch?v=a-rpDdbDXxo
This is my first attempt of a video portfolio so all feedback and reflections after watching it will be much appreciated.
Many Thanks!
Katie xx

One of my fabulous mentees had a position created for her a major car company. Before graduating, she asked: "How do you explain CMF design to a designer (graphic, industrial, etc.)? How about someone who isn’t a designer ?" I answer her questions and share articles you can pass along. If you're graduating and you're looking for a career in CMF Design, this is a must watch! You'll see the salaries and where the hotspots are for CMF jobs at the end. Wanna learn how to land a job in CMF? Keep watching?

Answering a request from my previous video, What's CMF? A viewer asked me to show CMF design process step-by-step to try for themselves and see an outcome.

To introduce everyone to CMF design, I made a 15 minute video showing how the foundational steps are applied to a project I was involved in. I share my process and insights from designing 5 colors for Sharpie Color Burst markers. Find it on Amazon.com; link below.

The production of this video forced me to pair down and teach what I believe, are the essential steps to Color Material Finish Design. You will only go up in complexity from here.

More content coming to expand on the 4 steps and dive deeper into CMF design. If you are interested in a career in Color Material Finish Design or want to broaden your skills in Industrial Design, AKA product design and manufacturing, please keep watching! Start developing your CMF design superpowers and make some cool stuff!

I am so excited to share the first of a series of videos introducing you to CMF Design! Sharing my industry knowledge and experiences on YouTube to make CMF Design more accessible to the rest of the world. CMF Design is still a little known specialization within product design or Industrial Design. There is only 1 program dedicated to CMF in the United States and it's an expensive MFA program. I've donated my time to colleges and universities lecturing and advising on CMF Design. I believe this information should be accessible to anyone who wants to learn so please share!

I've spent 20+ years designing for some of the worlds biggest brands. My content focuses on product design and the role of a Color Material Finish Designer; our activities on a day-to-day basis designing products in a variety of categories. I am showing my techniques that have made me an award winning, world-class CMF Designer.

More content coming to teach you the principles and techniques I used to become a world-class CMF Designer.

For CMF designers finish and texture go hand-in-hand. This video is an intro or beginners guide to understanding surface texture as well as gloss levels. The finish will make a product's
surface smooth and shine with a mirror finish or add a texture to keep a firm grip. CMF designers leverage finish and texture to achieve a look or highlight a product or a feature. This video will help you understand the nuances of Finish and Textures for product design.

English translation:
In the development of a product, as important as knowing what material it will be made of, what will be its production process, and what type of finish it will receive, it knows who it is being designed for.
It is necessary to understand the generations,
your behaviors, and the consumption habits that surround it.
After all, it is for people that we make products.

Four workplace concepts - "Playful", "Hygge", "Recharge" and "Immerse".
"Playful" is an open atmosphere with playfulness at its center, for the gathering of people and the exchange of ideas. "Hygge" is a relaxed atmosphere where an at-home coziness allows conversation to naturally flow. "Recharge" is a serene atmosphere to calmly collect your thoughts and turn your hand to tasks. "Immerse" is an atmosphere for focus, whether in a team or alone, settle in, get comfy and get to work.

Designers use color in storytelling, trying to capture an essence of a product or experience through color. Color is powerful: it can impact moods, behaviors, and more. In this latest episode of FUTURE FUTURE, hosts Mardis and Phnam Bagley share the basics of how CMF (color, materials, and finishes) designers determine, test, and troubleshoot the colors of a product during product development.
