On my portfolio, should I password protect my work page and make my homepage my about or resume?
One project is under NDA, another never ran because of corona, but I’d like them to at least (cont)

I’ve password protected my entire site all of my career and it’s never hindered my ability to get a job or even get recruited. All of the work has credits and if I claim awards, I link to the awards site and project w the credits. I started doing this back in 2010 because I had THREE people at my agency at the time steal my work (images, comps, written descriptions) and claim it as theirs.

Oh I always put credits- for one it’s basically an unspoken gentlemans rule. But also, two people got fired from my office for not putting everyones name under the work in their books

At least have something to look at, see a side project or see my resume which is fairly well rounded, and then decide if they want to ask for a password. Or is that pointless?

The problem is the NDA is print. So it would seem annoying to have multiple password-protected pages

Your work should be the first thing people see. Not your resume. Especially for creatives, resumes have little importance.

Just password protect individual projects. You more to show than just these two projects right?

Most portfolio sites let you password individual pages

So, can you password just the NDA and cancelled projects?

Also, for the corona cancelled project, in time you could display it and not worry.

Oh, it's super annoying. .. but if that's what you have to do, you have to do it.

Is your book just those two projects? Or are they your best projects?

Hello all, need some advice. Am currently working for a government consulting agency, but wishing to leave due to the way the project is being managed...I am in at least 4-5 hours of meetings a day, so barely have time to prepare for demos, preparation of slides for the client, nevermind being able to write decent stories(tickets)... Usually have to rush writing requirements, steps, etc, ...
So I have been looking around.
