My Creative CV
I wanted a cv that was still easy to read, source the information they wanted to find out quickly but creative and to my personal branding. I found that a lot of the creative cvs were over worked and very busy and the eye couldn't focus. With this layout I think the information is separated effectively theres enough white space to make it easy to focus on a section but not so much that it looks empty.
I originally had the logo cut out in the top left corner but then I decided to have the edge cut out on the paper version so that if folded and mailed out the edge would overlay on white space. With the back being a solid colour from my branding palette this would create a fill for the die cut edge.
