Is it well designed or just clever concepts?

Great work! Perfect student portfolio. A good mix of weird "student-y" concepts and professional craftsmanship.

with a portfolio like that he can leap into world of Flash banner adverts - fast becoming the designers mainstay.

The Achilles Heel: Typo on page one. (http://www.ericku.org/index.php...
"Mission Redefinition is a series of exercises; each exercise explore[s] the idea of redefinition..."Attention to every detail is crucial to establishing one's self as a successful designer.
Don't get me wrong, the kid's got chops, but so did Achilles. Good luck, Eric.

Well I'm happy he have very structured mind. Maybe we would se him in information graphics someday. Personally u can see his development in logotype design. Usage multiplication as form definitely different from currant streamlines that makes him a thinker.
- come here more often and say bai to that structured mind of yoursCoffeemaker

too many gimmicks

I enjoyed the portfolio. I liked the poignant jabs at certain industries as well as the executions. I think this man should be very employable for his ability to conceptualize interesting ideas and also to execute them in appropriate ways. And yeah, ther are some overt copy writing errors... but then again he's a designer, not a copywriter.
- MrDinky0
Is he really a designer? I find him more of a pop culture artist.
- fucking boring artist thoughfrancoisfido
- I agreeMrDinky
- y'all is just jealousd_rek

- Of course, every crit is jealousyMrDinky

This trend of how to be the most clever is getting boring. Work based on juxtaposition lacks value as it is not exercise in craft but rather more or less practice of gimmick. Hence it inhibits someone from creating something new and skills in tuned to create based on derivative of something else.
Feel free to ask for my portfolio.
- Ok, lets see it.d_rek
- Perhaps being clever is not a trend he's following but merely his style? And are you saying that his work should embrace traditional design practices?d_rek
- traditional design practices? Such as commercial or corporate endeavors?d_rek
- What style does he have? Juxtaposition is not a style.MrDinky
- When you take away the theme, it design it self lacks.MrDinky
- So where's that folio?d_rek
- Sorry but its not as amazing as your body of work.MrDinky
- Eh that's not what it's about you fucking tard... I just want to BELIEVE you are as CREDIBLE as you SOUNDd_rek
- But you can't do that, can you? At least i KNOW my portfolio isn't the hottest thing around, but at least it's THERE.d_rek
- And I am dismissing you based on your work due to creditabilityMrDinky
- And I am dismissing you on your lack thereof. Hope you're having a wonderful day under that bridge you fucking troll.d_rek
- Yes I been trolling since 2002MrDinky
- Guys pls behave your self.TomBac
- Hey fuck off TomMrDinky
- Actually I am sorry.MrDinky
- francoisfido0
there's nothing wrong with derivation
as there's nothing wrong with cleverness
the point is to address an interesting subject
this he does not, and how!
- d_rek0
