When analysing and looking back over the material so far, in particular looking at the meeting planner, it hit me that I want the design to look clinical and considered, and now it almost looks like a medical report or a prescription! So I've decided to embrace it and feel it's a pretty effective way of approaching a CV as I'm not a real fan of them anyway and feel they're a little gimmicky, especially for something as portfolio heavy as a design career but that's just my inexperienced opinion.
The CV is referencing medical reports with it's filling-in aesthetic style, obviously the viewer won't fill it in but it almost invites you to, but there's no bad points to tick, that wouldn't help me much. The CV is tabbed and will slot right into the Promo-pack which will be like a sort of Case-file or medical report on me which is bound together including my work, being careful not to get too medical, the CV is about as reference-heavy it will get.
I feel this is the best way forward as I didn't want my Promo pack or CV to feel too gimmicky or loud as this doesn't fit me and my personality and for the type of design studios I would apply to, I want to create the correct impression.

I'm still unsure as to what to include so the blank area will be filled with something but I aim to get some feedback from my peers tomorrow and crack on with this and finish the medical report, sorry promo pack by tomorrow hopefully. Excited to get on with it.
The whole visual style is a little risky for me as it's so much more clinical and minimal than most things I've done but I feel it's an enjoyable experiment and now's a better time than later to play around with ideas.
