About me
& my
portfolio
Hello and welcome!
My name is Michael Futer, I’m a graphic designer.
I’ve been working in the printing business
for over a decade.
Software I’m using on daily basis:
Additional programs in frequent use:
Branding & Print
TOPS MiniZ Catalogue
JOB: create the entire catalogue for mobile gadgets.
I was responsible for creating a clean and intuitive layout, designing the cover and preparing for offset print.
Serinus Software Brand book
JOB: design a simplistic looking logo with a canary signature for a software developer business.
Later I also prepared multiple branded products like sweaters,
t-shirts, pens and mugs with their logo.
Logo designs
Photo editing & Social media
Cosplay photo editing
I had the pleasure to cooperate with some cosplayers, who needed a little bit of help with photo editing for their social media.
Stream profile work
Twitch Stream work
It’s probably one of the most enjoyable jobs I’ve had.
JOB: create the images for the “About Me” section for a streamer on twitch.
Later as the stream grew, there was a need for custom emotes to be made. Since the streamer was recognized by her love of penguins, the penguin emote set was created.
I made them all as vector graphics, as it allows me to animate them in the future, as well as use it for multiple other purposes. This turned out to be a good idea, as I later used the images to create animations.
In the end, I made a few animations for the stream, few animated webcam frames, some stingers and intro/outro videos for YouTube videos, which was great fun.
I also had the chance to learn a thing or two about animation, and exporting videos with transparent background, which was quite a challenge at first.
