Email senior creatives you respect and ask for their feedback.
Not cds and above. They can be too busy.
But intermediate and senior creatives, maybe even acds, might have the time. I know if you catch me on a good/slow day, I’m more than happy to help

I see this question about how to display side projects often, so putting this out there for anyone who might find it useful:

There’s no such thing as side projects, in my eyes. Every project is an opportunity to display your creativity, and the few you’re most proud of make it to your book. Generally, the consensus these days is that we want our advertising to not look/feel like advertising. So, why should you be concerned to separate what was and wasn’t “advertising?”
