Write, Design & Publish a UX Case Study | UI/UX Portfolio

Whether you want to land a new job, grow your credibility as a designer, or just share your work with the creative community, keeping your portfolio up to date is incredibly important. It can be tempting to finish all the hard work on a project and then just move on… but it’s well worth it to take some time to craft a compelling case study for each project that you do, whether it be for a personal project, a project for a client, or as an in-house designer at a company.

In this class, I want to help you take all that awesome (sometimes messy) work from your recent project and shape it into something that tells a story and highlights your strengths. You’ll be able to use this process for past projects, and projects to come.

This class is meant for UX & Product designers at ANY level. Whether you’re looking to up-level a project from school, display your first client project, or you’ve been in UX for years and want to start laying out your case studies with a little more intention, the videos that follow will help you come out with something you’re proud to show off.

Here’s what you’ll need:

• A project you’ve finished recently
• Google docs, apple notes, or somewhere to write an outline
• Access to Adobe Xd or a similar design tool
• Some nice device mockups (I've linked some in the resource section)
• An online portfolio such as Behance and/or your own website
