This might be controversial but I work with several older Black folks, and it's from that I've experienced the most criticism or judgment at work.

Thoughts on putting unproduced social/print comps in your book?

I was lucky enough to get started at an agency without going to portfolio school, but because of that, I don’t have many examples of headline writing in my book that I’m super proud of.

For context, I have had some actual work sold through in my current job, but it was watered down by clients and isn’t the best representation of my abilities in comparison to some of the unsold lines.

Has anyone found an especially useful digital format for brand guidelines other than the ol' fashioned PDF?

Looking for something more like a living document.

Alternatives I'm considering:
-webpage(s) on company intranet
-a platform resembling a document 'tree' The HR team uses something for all their various memos and policies. Ugly but I like the modular approach.

My issue with PDFs is old versions linger in people's hard drives and inboxes. It's also less practical to make small updates
