How to start building a portfolio?

Question

Design

Good evening, I have been studying graphic design for a long time and I don’t know where to start filling it, there are a couple of works on the behance. but I want to do something big. help where to start

Answer 1

Yes, just come up with a non-existent client and make him a design.
You can take the existing one to drive yourself a little into the frame, but you just don’t need to take brands that are on everyone’s lips.
Any question about these projects can be answered that they were made as part of a tender for some advertising agency. Concepts are always made at tenders.

Answer 2

It is better to offer, at least for free, your services and do real work. This is much better than the fake ones. Either yours or stolen. And then there will be reviews.
