Graphic Designers Get Portfolio Help in New Book
This book is designed to help creative arts majors produce attention-getting portfolios in both traditional and digital formats and demonstrates techniques to create visually stunning interfaces that grab attention and get results.
Fort Lauderdale, FL, January 15, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Debbie Rose Myers, a senior Graphic Design faculty member of The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale, www.aifl.edu, helps students get a jump start on techniques for producing a quality portfolio and also gives fresh advice to graphic design professionals in refining their portfolios in the second edition of her new book The Graphic Designer's Guide to Portfolio Design.
“In today's competitive job market you need that extra something to get the best job,” says Rose Myers. “... So how do you get that edge over the competition? A great interview? Snappy interview attire? A positive attitude? Nope! It will be your portfolio- plain and simple. My book will show you how.”

She established The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale’s desktop publishing and computer graphic curriculum, including both vector-based and raster-based drawing as well as scanning and image processing.

She has numerous honors and awards for her art work including All Florida Juried Competition & Exhibition, Boca Museum of Art; Hortt Exhibition, Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art; M.F.A.
