Activity: Graphic Designer
Address: www.okaydave.com
Purpose: Present Portfolio Projects

One of the most exciting personal portfolios I've seen online is by the very talented Dave Werner. As part of a graphic design master's program at Portfolio Center in Atlanta, he produced several in-depth conceptual projects, including an eloquent rebranding proposal for the Kennedy Center and monumental identity graphics for the Russian city of St. Petersburg.

Of the master's program, he explains: "The greatest value came from learning how to take the chaotic ideas swirling around in my head and turn them into strong, clear concepts with distinct messages." The wonderful thing about this portfolio is that he shares these chaotic ideas by walking us through his creative process. Using animation and video, he presents project goals, inspiration, preliminary sketches and proposals, right down to the beautiful finished designs. He has a knack for discovering and celebrating his subjects' unique qualities. Sit back and enjoy his engaging narration and sheer enthusiasm.

Can't wait to see more of his work!
