Taking the right measurements (Copyright)Svetlana Gerasimova

Good afternoon, dear students

Today we are going to take measurements necessary for creating

a rhythmic gymnastics leotard pattern

This wonderful girl Nika is here to help us today.

To begin with,

lets tie a string or piece of elastic around the girl's waist

which will be used as a starting point for taking all of the vertical measurements.

If you experience any problems in finding the natural waist,

ask a girl to bend to sides. The deepest resulting wrinkle is the waist.

But we dont have that problem with Nika.

So we can easily start straight away.

Height (H)

At the beginning we shall measure the gymnasts height.

There is no need to measure it precisely.

We need it just for a reference.

Nika is 150 cms tall,

so we can move on to other measurements.

Lets take a bust/chest measurement

Chest size (CS)

I place the tape under the girls arms

trying to keep it as horizontal as possible and parallel to the floor.

The fit should be quite tight (sleek fit) but comfortable at the same time.

Our next measurement is the wasit

Waist size (WS)

It is measured as well

with a tight fit at the exact waist location.

Hips size (HS)

Place the tape around the fullest part of the hips and buttocks,

keeping it horizontal.

The tape should be pulled evenly across the body with no slack, but fitting tight.

Neck size (NS)

This measurement is taken differently to the one of a usual garment.

This is needed only for making a stand collar.

If we take the neck measurement in a traditional way, around the base of the neck.

the stand collar will end up being too loose around the gilrs neck.

That is why we are taking this measurement around the smallest part of the neck.

Now we need to take a measurement of the collar height

Collar Height (CH)

The stand collar has to be the right height

so with the head movement back and forwards,

the collar wouldnt bend or wrinkle.

Nika, could you please tilt your head forward slightly.

This way we can take a measurement between this point and the sternal notch.

It is approximately 1,5-2 cms below the chin.

The next one is a very important measurement - back waist length.

Back Waist length (BWL)

Take the measurement from the 7th vertebrae down the center of the back

to the waistline elastic/string.

Back waist length and the crotch length.

define the girth of a leotard

i.e. the physical length of a garment.

Crotch lenght

Crotch length (CL)

This measurement is a bit tricky.

Run a tape measure from front waist through legs/crotch

to back waist.

Sleeve length

Sleeve length (SL)

In our case this measurement is taken a bit differently again.

We shall start measuring the sleeve length not from the end of the shoulder

like in a standard garment,

but from the shoulder knob.

The anatomical position of this bone is situated

vertically and directly above the armpit.

This will allow the leotard shoulder to be short,

ending at the shoulder knob.

What is the reason for that?

If we make a wide shoulder,

its seem will be shifting upwards,

in the direction of the protruding shoulder bone

during gymnast movements.

We have a moving joint in the shoulder.

But this particular part of the shoulder stays still during an arm movements.

So, accordingly, now we can start measuring the sleeve length.

from this protruding shoulder bone.

There is no need to bend the elbow.

as we are working with highly stretchable fabrics.

So we take the measurement of a straight arm.

to the wrist bone.

To provide a sleek, competition fit of the sleeve

we need to take two extra measurements

The first one is the upper arm width (biceps)

The upper arm width (UAW)

In our pattern construction we call this measurement an upper arm width.

and the abreviation for that is

UAW

Upper arm width is measured

in the middle part between the shoulder and the elbow.

Measure the fullest part of the arm with the tight fit.

Wrist size (Wrs)

The wrist circumference is measured easily around either of the wrists, left or right.

The wrist measurement should, as usual in our case, be tight with no slack.

To create a nice line of the panties leg opening ,

we need to mark few points,

which will define

its natural position.

By bending the leg.

at the hip joint,

we can see that the top bending point

is situated around here.

Can you please bend your leg, darling?

Put it down, thank you.

Now we can see that the highest bending point

is located here.

This is the top point of the leg opening.

So this will be called the leg opening top point (LOtp)

In the rhythmic gymnastics regulations it clearly states

that the leotard leg opening should not pass the groin (inguinal fold.)

So let us mark this points position.

Firstly, we measure the vertical position up to the waistline.

The second measurement, which you will write down with a hyphen,

is the horizontal measurement up to the middle

To create a nice curve of the panties back leg opening

we need to find few points, which we shall call the panties back diagonals.

The panties back Diagonals (PBD)

We shall be measuring them from the middle of the back waistline.

Let us take 3 following measurements.

It is convenient when a girl is wearing a tight bodysuit

with a leg opening, resembling the one we need for the future leotard.

Here are the first measurement,

the second measurement

and the third measurements.

Please, write down these 3 measurements using a hyphen.

There are two measurements left.

Skirt front length (SFL)

The skirt front length is measured from the middle of the waist

to the required length.

The skirt back length (SBL)

The same as before, we measure the length from

from the middle of the waist.

But there is one peculiarity.

The skirt needs to cover buttocks.

Sometimes the buttocks are lower than the crotch area.

Thus we have to find where a leg meets the buttock

In our case it is 24-25 cms

It is always better to add an extra centimetre to the measurement

to be on the safe side

and shorten it later if necessary

These measurements are sufficient to make a leotard pattern.

Sometimes you will be asked to sew a

a gymnastics unitard, or leggings to suit a leotard.

For this we shall have to take few additional measurements.

First of all it is a measurement from the waist to the floor

Waist to the floor (WTF)

We measure the length from the elastic to the floor.

Lets take the measurement

Then we need to measure an ankle size.

Ankle size (As)

To do that,we take measure around the narrowest part of the leg.

The last measurement, which is necessary

for making leggings pattern,

is the standard crotch depth.

Crotch Depth. (CD)

This measurement is taken from the elastic

to the chair.

It is recommended to get a girl seated on a hard chair or stool

and measure from the waist vertically down to the chair.

Now I shall thank Nika for her help.

You should try take measurements of your gymnasts

and fill in the chart attached to this lesson.

This is the end of the lesson.

Yes.

How to remove people from the wrong family on FamilySearch - Duration: 6:15.

have you ever come across an individual and FamilySearch and thought they don't

belong at this family and wondered what you do about it but today's your lucky

day we're gonna talk about that next

howdy I'm Devon Noel Lee and this is family

history fanatics where we hope to educate you on how to climb your family

tree further faster and have a whole lot more fun along the way today we're gonna

talk about what do you do when you think kind of a relative is in the wrong

family the first thing you need to do is come with up with a case you can't just

take people out of families willy-nilly without a solid reason now we have a

series called research over my shoulder and this is the last video that we're

going to do on Winfield Underwood's family in this case Winfield might have

a brother honey might not so when we go through

each of his siblings you're going to notice a trend the siblings were born in

Kentucky and most specifically they're usually born in Taylor County Kentucky

the other thing you're going to notice is almost all of them migrated West they

went to Texas but when you come to this one General Thomas Underwood he doesn't

go west unless he came back but the question is is general in the wrong

family now general has sources and these are great sources but they don't help me

know for sure if he's with the wrong family so what I'm going to do is click

on the family search quick link to go to search for records about general when I

come to the records results page the first result I see is for a bill and a

mahalia or mahalia not exactly sure how to say that woman's first name but it's

not Hiram Underwood and Nancy Gaddy it's somebody completely

different well you might say okay just keep scrolling Navy hyerim and Nancy

will show up a little bit later well I'm scrolling and I'm scrolling and

I'm not seeing Hiram and Nancy associated with General Thomas or any

Thomas for that matter I do consistently see a william and i'm mahalia or other

individuals entirely in this cursory look I'm pretty confident that we have

general in the wrong family kind of fast forward a little bit I've done a lot of

research on Winfield Underwood's family and I've never come across a General

Thomas I have come across a General Logan now could you have two children

named general with their middle names being different certainly but I don't

think that's the case in genealogy you have to realize that anyone can make

mistakes but considering the evidence we have at this time and the fact that this

is a quick video on YouTube what do you do to get General Thomas out of Hyrum

and Nancy's family well you need to bake break their relationship

you can't break the relationship on the left side where he is with his wife and

his children you have to break the old relationship over here on the right

where he is a son of Hyrum and Nancy Underwood so click on this edit link

once you're there you can click on this link here and then it will ask you are

you sure you want to do this and make sure you click the right relationship

that you're trying to break and once again it will ask you because this is

family search for a reason why you are making this change be sure to fill it

out you need to remind yourself and tell others why you don't think General

Thomas belongs in Hyrum and Nancy's family once you click the final blue

button you will be taken to profile that looks like this and now

General Thomas has no parents but there is strong case being made that he does

and it's time for you to go do research which is beyond the scope of this video

it really is simple to break relationships but should you yes if you

can make a case that an individual is connected to the wrong family

if you can't in you're still a little doubtful then jus more research and show

you're certain and if you don't know even after doing additional research let

things go and leave a discussion question of hey I don't think this is

right what does anybody else you know but you know what the best thing about a

collaborative trees such as family search if you make a mistake it can be

undone and we'll save that for a future video if you need it if you think you

might want that video you definitely need to drop me a line in the comments

and say be sure to tell me how did you that so I'm definitely this is family

history fanatics in the next episode of research over my shoulder we will start

tackling a new family but until then be sure to sign up for our newsletter so

How long will my work comp claim to to finish? - Duration: 3:54.

Hey, it's Bernard Nomberg with the Nomberg Law Firm in Birmingham Alabama

and one question were asked almost 100% of the time with new callers current

clients prospective clients it happens all the time the question is

how long will my workers compensation claim take meaning how quickly can I get

medical care how quickly do I get a settlement how quickly does this all

come to an end well there's so many different paths that workers comp claims

can take I can only address a couple of different scenarios in this video but

here goes if you have a claim that is accepted by the work comp carrier and

you're currently receiving medical care and things are progressing hopefully

you're getting better our rule of thumb is that hopefully after you have reached

maximum medical improvement that's the doctors way of saying you've maximized

your improvement in your medical care about 90 to 120 days we would hope that

there would either be a settlement in your case or we've made a decision

probably well before that that we need to file a lawsuit and the reason why

you'd have to file a lawsuit is because well there's many reasons but maybe the

parties can't agree on the value of the case we may think one thing the

insurance company may think another but the bottom line going back to this

scenario is you're only going to heal as fast as your body and the medicine and

the medical care or going to get it to heal and I know that may sound

ridiculous what I'm saying is sometimes there's complications with medical care

and the healing process sometimes you actually heal more quickly than the

doctors anticipate it's not an exact science it depends on every every

situation is different and it depends on how your body responds to this medical

care that really is kind of the rule of thumb about from a standpoint of how

quickly is my case going to settle how quickly is this going to be over

can't predict the future we can only use our past cases as as kind of an

indication so in the scenario where your case has been accepted and you're going

through medical care really depending on how quickly your body responds to

medical care is going to dictate that now in the scenario where the case has

not been accepted and you have to fight for your rights well do you have to file

a lawsuit and if you do that's also going to dictate how many months or how

long that could take filing a lawsuit going through the entire process and

getting to a trial stage that could take a year or more again every case is

different every fact scenario is different we've had cases come in and

we've signed them and we've settled them within the month and they've been paid

out within the month but that's rare that's a case that's ready to settle if

you've already reached maximum improvement you've gotten your PPI

rating and permanent physical impairment rating and maybe there's even an offer

that's been extended that's that type of a case typically

could resolve and settle and be done much more quickly than a case that's

starting out from the beginning more a case that is that's being denied or

disputed because the insurance company they the employer they have the right by

law to investigate every case is different every fact pattern is

different every situation is different don't compare yours please with any

other case whether it's an Alabama case you're out of state don't compare them

call us if you have these questions. This is what we do.

How To Start A Freelance Business (THAT MAKES MONEY!) - Duration: 8:08.

Brandi: 00:00 Have you ever wanted to make money while working from home in your PJ's?

Maybe with your little one by your side.

Well stay tuned.

In this video, I'm going to share my tips on how to start a successful freelance business

today!

Brandi: 00:20 For the best online business advice and digital marketing

tips.

Subscribe to my channel now and hit the bell and you'll be notified every Tuesday and Thursday

when I released my new episodes of the Brandi and Co.

Show.

Brandi: 00:35 If you want to quit your nine to five job and make a full time income working

from home, but you're not sure where to start.

Stick around this video's for you because by the end of this video, you're going to

have an action plan to start your profitable, successful freelance business today and you

can start making money right away.

How do I know?

Because after starting my freelance business with no experience in three months, I was

making over $6,000 a month and it's only went up since then and I know you can too.

Brandi: 01:12 Okay.

Step one, this is the most important step and this is just deciding to start your freelance

business.

I think this is sometimes the hardest part for people is just getting started.

There's never going to be a right time.

It's always going to be one of those times where something else could be going right,

but I promise just get started.

When I started my freelance business, I had a brand new baby.

She was so colicky.

It was definitely not the right time to start, but I did and I'm so glad I just started because

it just took off and it's because I got excited and so you just have to make the decision

to start.

It does not take a lot of money if any, to start your own freelance business and that's

what's so great about it, but you can see that return within your first month and so

just decide to get started and so that is step one.

Brandi: 02:04 Step two, the next most important step is what is your freelance business going

to be like?

What services are you going to provide?

Is it going to be virtual assistant work?

Is it going to be social media management, is it going to be graphic design, website

design?

What services are you going to provide and maybe you're sitting there and you're like,

oh, I have no idea what services, I don't know what experience I have.

First off, think about what you love doing, and so maybe for me I knew it was not going

to be admin tasks.

like admin task are not my thing, money management, bookkeeping.

Not My thing, but I knew I love social media and I knew that I was really good at it for

other people, especially at the time, Pinterest, and then once I started getting clients, I

found out what I was truly passionate about, which was ads.

Brandi: 03:00 I love the marketing side of paid advertisement and I love sales funnels

and how they work and so that's when I niched down, but at first I was kind of doing a little

bit of everything in the social media world, organic growth, making some cool graphics,

things like that.

So really just find out what are you excited about and what do you enjoy doing?

Because that's one of the perks about having your own freelance business is you're not

working for someone else, so it might as well be fun or you're not going to want to do it,

and so I suggest making a list of everything you love, like think about things that people

will just that you love and that people need.

Get into some facebook groups, find out what people are looking for and so find your favorite

facebook groups, so some of mine are like gold digger podcast group, and that's one

of the groups that you can search through and just look what are people asking for.

Brandi: 03:54 Do they need bookkeeping?

Do they need graphic design?

Do they need copywriters?

Just find what people are looking for and then decide is that something you enjoy doing?

And if so, that's your service, that's your niche and then maybe you start out as just

an umbrella term as a virtual assistant and from that virtual assistant, you just do a

little bit of everything until you find what you really, really enjoy and then niche down,

but deciding your services is step two.

Okay?

And then comment below, tell me what service you're going to provide with your freelance

business.

Go on leave them in the comments right now.

Brandi: 04:37 Okay, step three, this is naming your business.

What are you going to call your business?

And this is one that gives a lot of people trouble.

So stay tuned.

Next week I'm going to be releasing my episode on how to name Your Business, but this is

really important.

Brandi: 04:54 So be thinking about it.

Think about a few things like is it already taken or do you want to use your own name,

what direction your company going in, but that is step three is to name your business

and tune in next week and we'll go exactly over the steps on how to do that.

Brandi: 05:11 Step four, this is the fun part.

You're going to go find clients.

You are marketing your business and so there is several ways to market your business and

some of them are through Linkedin, facebook, instagram, actually connecting with people

you already know that are business owners that need your services that you're providing.

There's also freelance sources like upwork that you can try out craigslist.

There's all kinds of places, but the important part is you start marketing and you market

at least 10 to 15 minutes every day until you land that first client, and so this is

sometimes like the scariest part of starting your business is putting it out there to everyone

and just seeing what responses you get, but it's so important because without marketing

you have no clients and you have no business, so I encourage you, go and find where your

clients are hanging out and spend some time building those connections and throwing your

services out.

Brandi: 06:13 See if they need your help because chances are they do.

Brandi: 06:18 Step five, step five is one that I find a lot of people get hung up on

and that's getting your systems in place to not worry about getting your systems in place

until you actually have a client because you don't need systems without a client, so your

systems are, are you going to use a contract?

Are you going to form an LLC?

How are you going to manage your clients?

Is that going to be with a sauna?

Click up Trello.

How are you going to organize all your business paperwork?

Do you need a social security or tax ID number?

Things like that do need to get done because it is a business, but they don't need to get

done until you actually have a client.

So the big thing is focus on marketing and then once you get that client focus on setting

up your business systems.

Brandi: 07:03 Now you know exactly what you need to do to start your own freelance business

today, but what about the tools you need?

I mentioned number five is getting your systems in place, so I created my freelance toolkit

just for you and so you can download that in the description, the links in the description,

and you can download that and that's going to give you all the tools or at least most

of the tools I use for my freelance business and the best part, the majority of them are

free.

So go on.

Download that and so you have your handy toolkit ready.

If you liked this video, please let me know by giving a thumbs up below and in the comments,

go and put the word starting.

If you're going to, Start Your freelance business today.

I really want to hear from you and so I can support you and all your success.

Also, if you know someone who wants to leave their nine to five or wants to be at home

with their little one, go ahead and share this video with them so they can get started

today.

Thanks for watching.

How to Make a Tote Bag with a Zipper - Duration: 10:54.

Hey guys, it's Clara from Online Fabric Store. Today I'm gonna make a tote bag with a recess zipper

This one is made to fit a Mahjong set, but you can make it any size you want. So let's get started

The materials you'll need are: 1 yard of the outer fabric, I'm using home decor fabric

1 yard of the lining fabric, I'm using muslin, 1 yard of Pellon fusible fleece interfacing,

1 yard of Pellon decor bond fusible stabilizer,

A zipper that's at least as wide as the bag, a ruler, thread, 3 yards of 1 inch webbing,

scissors, a fabric marker, pins, an iron, and a sewing machine with a zipper foot

Cut two rectangles from the outer fabric

They should be the width you want the bag plus one inch by the height plus two and a half inches

My bag will be twenty-two inches wide and 11 inches high

So I'm cutting pieces that are 23 by 13 and 1/2 inches

You can use many different fabrics for the outer fabric like canvas denim nylon, quilting cotton or decor fabric, which is what I'm using

If you plan on washing your bag pre-wash the fabric before starting

Cut 2 inch squares from the bottom corners

This will create the gussets so the size of the squares will determine the depth of the bottom of the bag

This bag will have four inch gussets

If you want a different size, divide the depth you want the bag in half and cut out squares that are that size

Keep in mind this will also change the height of the bag

Cut out two pieces of the lining fabric that are the same width as the outer fabric and two inches shorter

My pieces are 23 by 11 and a half inches

Cut out two inch squares from the bottom corners

Use a lightweight fabric for the lining like broadcloth or quilting cotton

Cut two pieces from the lining fabric that are 2 and 1/2 inches high and the same width as the other pieces

These upper lining pieces will be visible above the zipper so you can use the outer fabric if you prefer

I'm adding a pocket to the interior that size to fit Mahjong cards but this is optional

The pocket will be 5 by 7 inches

Add 1 inch to the width and the height is double the pocket height plus 1 inch,

So I'm cutting a piece that's 11 by 8 inches

Cut out pieces from the fusible stabilizer for the outer fabric and upper lining that are 1/2 an inch smaller in all directions

For me that's 22 and 1/2 by 13 inches for the outer pieces and 22 and 1/2 by 2 inches for the upper lining

Also cut out a piece that's the size of the finished pocket which is 5 by 7 inches

From the fleece interfacing cut pieces that are 1/2 an inch smaller than the lower lining pieces

The stabilizer makes the bag stiffer so it will hold its shape and the fleece interfacing makes the lining more cushioned

Both are optional or you can use one kind for both the outer fabric and lining

Center the stabilizer on the back of an outer piece with the adhesive side down

Press each section for about 10 seconds at a time without sliding the iron. Flip it over and iron the front

Repeat for the other outer piece and the upper lining pieces

Fuse the stabilizer to the pocket piece half an inch in from one of the ends

Do the same thing with the fleece interfacing for the lower lining pieces

Cut two pieces of webbing to the length you want

Mine are 50 inches long which will create a drop of 11 inches from the top of the bag to the peak of the handles

Find the center of the outer fabric measure out 3 and 1/2 inches on both sides and mark the fabric with the disappearing ink marker, chalk, or pins

This will allow seven inches between the webbing

You may want to adjust this for different sized bags

Mark, one and a half inches from the top which is where the stitching will stop

Pin the webbing so the inner edges are on the line

Starting from the bottom sew the webbing 1/8 of an inch in from the edge

Backstitch at the beginning and end of all stitching on the bag

I'm using a slightly longer stitch length of three point five millimeters for all my top stitching

Stop when you get to the one-and-a-half inch mark and pivot, sew across back and forth for extra strength

Pivot again and sew down the other side

Do the same thing for the other end of the webbing

Repeat to attach the other handle to the second outer piece

You can also use straps made out of the fabric you're using if you prefer

Fold the pocket in half with the stabilizer facing out. Sew around the sides on the edge of the stabilizer

Leave a gap of a couple inches at the bottom

Clip the corners and turn it right-side out

Center the pocket three inches down from the top of one of the lower lining pieces and pin

Sew close to the edges around the sides and bottom

Put the zipper foot on your sewing machine

Open the zipper slightly and sew back and forth above the teeth to hold the top together

Place the zipper facing up on the top edge of one of the lower lining pieces

The upper end of the zipper should be aligned with the side

Place one of the upper lining pieces on the top facing down

The edges of both lining pieces and the zipper should be aligned

Sew down the edge

I prefer to adjust as I sew but you can pin if you want

When you get to the zipper pull, lift the foot, move the pull, and continue sewing

Open the lining fold it back and top stitch

Make sure to pull back the piece on the bottom so it doesn't get out of place as you sew

Put the zipper face up on the other lower lining piece and place the upper lining piece on top facing down

Sew with all the edges lined up like before

Open and top stitch again

Fold all the layers back except for one of the upper lining pieces

Line up the edge with an outer piece with right sides facing and sew

You can switch back to your regular pressing foot

I'm using a quarter inch seam allowance here, but half an inch is also fine

Repeat for the other upper lining and outer pieces

Arrange the layers so the outer pieces are facing each other on one side and the lining pieces are on the other side

Line up the bottom edges of the outer pieces and sew with the half inch seam allowance

Sew the bottoms of the lining pieces together to

Make sure to open the zipper at this point or before sewing the bottoms

Next sew the side with the top end of the zipper

Fold the zipper in half with the edges pointing down towards the lining side

Match up the seams and pin

Sew all the way down the side with a half inch seam allowance

Arrange and pin the other side in the same way

This time stop just before getting to the teeth of the zipper

Start sewing on the other side then leave a gap of about six inches and continue sewing the rest of the side of the lining

Open one of the corners and match up the seams to form the gusset

Sew across with a half inch seam allowance

Repeat for the other corner and the lining corners. You can cut off the extra zipper at any time

And now the moment of truth. Turn the bag right side out through the opening in the lining

Poke out the gusset corners of the outer fabric

Fold in the edges of the opening and the lining and sew

You can hand stitch with an invisible stitch if you want, but since it's the lining, the machine stitching won't be very noticeable

Tuck the lining into the bag. Fold at the seam where the outer and lining fabrics meet

Top stitch all the way around

Zip it up and the tote bag is done

Make a tote bag for yourself or as a gift. I made these for my Mahjong loving aunts

You can also add interior and exterior zippers or more pockets to put your needs. Thanks for watching this OFS project

How to Create a Fashion Portfolio that gets the job: Student vs Professional Fashion Designer - Duration: 12:16.

To the untrained eye there can be subtle but huge differences between a

student fashion design portfolio and a

Professional fashion design portfolio and these differences can make or break your chances of getting a job in this video

We're gonna go through what those differences are

And if you're a fashion design student what changes you can make to your student portfolio to make it look more professional?

We're also going to cover how you can break into a new category

even if your student work or past professional work

Doesn't have anything to do with that category

I'm so Heidi founder of successful fashion designer comm and I teach fashion designers like you the real world skills

You need to get ahead in this cutthroat industry all the stuff. You don't learn at fashion school

A lot of people don't talk about this stuff. So I like to call it fashion industry secrets revealed

And the advice in this video isn't just stuff I made up it's stuff

I've learned over a decade working professionally in the industry and it's also stuff that I've learned after doing over

75 interviews with fashion professionals on my podcast

Successful fashion designer these designers have landed their dream job at brands like Lululemon DKNY and Under Armour and they've used these exact

strategies to present an exceptional fashion design portfolio

I've hand-picked their best advice from our podcast interviews and

Package them up into this short video for you. If you want to check out the full interview

They're all linked below in the description. Oh and pro tip

If you have any questions that I don't cover in this video

I wrote an entire book how to create your fashion portfolio in a weekend. It's absolutely free

All right. Let's start out the first

biggest difference between a student fashion portfolio and a professional portfolio is the idea of

Commercial design versus conceptual design, it's the wacky stuff

You see on the runway versus the real-life stuff. You actually see in stores now in fashion school

They teach you to be super artistic and they encourage you to do these very conceptual designs

But in the real world brands create commercial everyday clothes for everyday people and no offense

but a lot of brands don't really care that much about your gorgeous and artistic conceptual designs now the strategies between

Commercial and conceptual work what brands really need versus what you learn to do in school

Comes up. So often on the podcast in this video. I'm going to share two specific examples

The first is from Carlos Luis

Stout who I interviewed in episode 60 now Carlos been a designer for over 15 years and she has had the most phenomenal career

trajectory

But when she first started out she applied and interviewed for over 20 jobs without getting a single offer

All the brand's said was we need you to have some

Experience before we can hire you, but she was stuck trying to get her first experience

Well, Carla realized is that her portfolio was very conceptual

So she did a few self-directed projects that were very commercial put them in her portfolio and almost immediately

She landed her first fashion design job because as Carla talked about in her interview

The industry is not as airy-fairy as it is in design school

You're not basing things off of some tree that's blowing in the wind for this poem for the 19th century

your work has to be more relevant to trends that are going on and to

Commercially driven clothes that real people are actually wearing because I hate to break it to you

I've talked about this in other videos, but the crazy conceptual stuff that you see on the runway does not actually go to market

So yes, while some brands create these crazy conceptual designs

That is not what you're gonna be designing stuff on the runway is created for PR and marketing and presentation purposes only and that stuff

Is being created by the designers at the top top top of the chain?

you may get there someday and you can

but to start you're gonna be at the bottom and you are gonna be working on designing the

everyday clothes for everyday people the next example of this comes from Bjorn Bengston who I

Reviewed on the very first episode of the successful fashion designer podcast now bjørn's been in the industry for over 20 years

He's a design director and he does a lot of hiring

He's worked for brands like theory and Greg Norman and being in a hiring position

You're knows what he wants to see in someone's portfolio

I'm gonna let him tell you in his own words who work is very many times very conceptual and

Not always applicable to what goes on in the industry from a commercial standpoint

So develop something by yourself that you feel could be good for those

five to ten companies you really want the interview with and then when you show your

Patrol you actually develop time and develop you something that you feel is relevant from the commercial standpoint

If you don't have any commercial work that you've done because you've not yet worked in the industry

You can either pull some projects from an internship or do some self-directed projects to put in your portfolio

just make sure that they're based on what's actually in the market and what brands are actually selling on their website or in stores and

the next big difference between a

student fashion portfolio and a professional one is

showing

irrelevant projects versus showing tight cohesive collections that actually relate to the brand

What does this even mean?

Well, I boiled this down to the portfolio golden rule and if you've read my free book on portfolios

Then you've read this before here it is

again

this project collection or design speaks to the brand tells them that I understand their market customer and aesthetic and

Visually shows them that I am the right designer for the job. Now a lot of fashion design students their portfolios

We mentioned can be very conceptual

They also just want to shove every project they've ever done in there

But your portfolio is about quality and relevance to the brand not quantity

it's better to show just a handful of relevant projects from an internship or

from

self-directed projects than to show a bunch of stuff that doesn't even make sense to them a

Specific example of this came up when I interviewed Sheena Schoolcraft in episode 11 of my podcast

Sheena's worked for brands like DKNY and Tommy Hilfiger and she is in a position to interview and hire designers

She knows what she wants to see in a portfolio and what she doesn't she know specifically says it is a waste of time

To show too many projects. Everybody is so busy that if you show too many projects and stuff that's irrelevant

People just wind up getting kind of annoyed

She just suggests a maximum of three to six projects that are super relevant

because by the time you show your inspiration and you're trying and your mood board and your color story

It gets to be a lot of pages

So that is more than enough because here's the thing if you're applying for a position for woven tops

And you show a bunch of evening wear dresses. It doesn't even make sense as beautiful as your designs

maybe you're wasting everybody's time and one of Sheena's best pieces of advice is to send your portfolio as

Small PDF files that way you can customize what each brand sees now

I realize if your student you might not have that much work to choose from

But just really think about if you're showing eveningwear dresses to a brand that you're applying to to design swimsuits

Just think about what really makes sense and when you go in for an interview with your physical

portfolio pull pages out that are irrelevant or at least tuck them in the very back don't flip through 100 pages of

Irrelevant projects just because you're sitting there in person and this came up again on episode 53 when I interviewed Shelley

Simpson who runs the fashion recruiting department for a large staffing agency in New York City and Shelley cautions designers

Against sending brands to a full website unless your website is hyper focused on that specific category

Why?

Because it's hard to control what people will or won't see on your website where they may or may not click and it's really easy

For them to get confused and turned off by seeing something that's irrelevant to them

here's Shelley in her own words explaining this further as far as like a website goes this is where I typically

unless your website is very

specific and caters to a certain audience

I'm

and I want my client to see that I

Typically avoid sending that to clients because sometimes you're gonna have such array of work and you just don't want them clicking on the wrong

Lake and being like, oh she does swimwear, even though you know you're applying to them for like an it's position

I'm you just want to make sure that if you are presenting that to a client or you know somewhere you're applying

That it's it's a fit for what they're looking for. Otherwise, you never know where they're gonna end up on your website

So it just needs to be very well thought out if you do, you know intend to send that out

So again, unless your website is super focused on just what that brand wants to see for that specific category

consider sending customized PDFs for each job

It will remind you of the portfolio golden rule

again

this project collection or design speaks to the brand tells them that I understand their market customer and aesthetic and

Visually shows them that I am the right designer for the job

I talk about all of this and much more depth and answer every question

You could possibly have about your fashion portfolio in my free book

But before you go clicking away, here's how you can break into a new category

Even if you're past schoolwork or perhaps professional work has nothing to do with that category

And we've talked about self-directed projects in this video earlier

But a question that a lot of designers have is is it actually okay to show that stuff in your portfolio?

Can I put stuff in there that hasn't actually gone into production?

Yes

you can and this is exactly what Lela Jalili did who I interviewed an episode 49 now Leila's worked for brands like Helen Hansen and

Under Armour, but when she first got started in the industry out of school

She didn't have any experience in outerwear

She wanted to get into snowboarding in high action sports

But nothing in her portfolio reflected this so she did a bunch of self-directed projects and that's how she landed her first job

Beyond this Lela and I brain started a bunch of cool ways in the podcast

That you can add relevant work to your portfolio

Even if you don't have formal experience look for design competitions that you can enter

this may be a

competition that a brand is having or that a trade shows putting on maybe you offer to help a startup for free now I have

Thoughts I'm working for free and it boils down to this

if you initiate the project and you tell the brand or the startup or the person that you're working for free to gain experience and

You put very clear parameters on

What the projects going to be then it is okay

Where I really suggest you don't work for free is if a brand approaches you and asks you to do it to gain exposure

That is abusive

I know another person in the industry who has a friend

Who they give each other design inspiration boards and in they each design a collection off of that so get creative

Work with other people figure out ways you can get the experience

Before you had the experience one last example

Comes from Hilary Glenn who I interviewed an episode 35 now Hilary had lived in New York City and she had worked for a bunch

Of really high-end brands, but she was moving to Colorado where there's a lot of lifestyle and activewear brands

She didn't have a lot of this of work in her portfolio

So she did do some self-directed projects

But beyond this she went into interviews with sample projects that she created specifically for those brands and she showed them her ideas

So not only was she impressing the brand with the sample project. She then had more content to add to her portfolio

There are a million ways

You can come up with to get creative with this

So do that and then add some

commercial work to your student portfolio because remember the two biggest things that are going to make your

portfolio look more professional and less student is having

Commercial driven work and only showing stuff that's relevant to the brand again for more specific tips

How To Logout Instagram Account From All Devices By Without Changing Password-2019 - Duration: 2:55.

Hello what's up guys and welcome back to my youtube channel

"Theta box". Today I will show you how to logout your Instagram account

from other devices, so before going to the tutorial first of all why we do this

process?. Because if you buy a new smart phone or laptop the big problem

is to transfer the account details from one device to another device. Sometime

your previous application informations are stored on that phone device, so there is

possible to steal the informations by using that device. To avoid this kind

of problems, people's are searching how to logout from all devices, but here I show

you by without changing my Instagram account password, so let's go to our

tutorial. First of all I try to open my Instagram application via my

android mobile, and my news feed is ready to use. So in

this section you can press your profile icon and it is located at the bottom.

And this is my profile, so here you can go to settings by press that horizontal

lines icon and this icon is located at the almost top of right side and then

select "Settings". So here it shows lots of account related settings, but you can

go to the bottom, finally I get the option called "Logout", so just press that

option and then it ask for confirmation

so select "logout".

Finally the logout process is completed, but if you want to remove your

account from this device, just press "Remove" option and this is normal method.

But I have the one doubt, if I share any photos or videos to Instagram, it

automatically posting on my profile or not?. Now I try to check it, if this

image file is automatically share on my Instagram profile or not.

So here I try to select any one of the image file and this is that image file.

So you can select that image and then go to "send" option, here I try to select

"Instagram" application.

But it shows one notification and the message is "You must login before you can

share on Instagram", which indicates your account details are successfully

removed from all devices and this method also works very smoothly. So this is the

way you can easily logout your Instagram account from all devices. For

more tech videos you can subscribe my beautiful tech channel "Theta box" and

thanks for watching...

Any idea how much of your grain was lost during harvest - Duration: 2:33.

Here in Australia we're losing a lot of canola out of the back of our harvesters

and in Western Australia alone I've estimated that we're losing 90

million dollars a year worth of canola, that equates to about $70 per hectare

over our 1.2 million hectare crop. This canola grain or any grain that's left

on the ground after harvest is your profit and in some cases it might be all

of your profit. Canola is a high-value crop it might be twice the value of

wheat and we're losing more canola than we are wheat out of the back of a

harvester. So we're losing a lot of a high-value crop so we need to measure it.

We need to measure it because we want to at least have these canola harvest

losses around Australia. We're in a farm in the northern wheatbelt of Western

Australia where the grower has swathed and then harvested and as you can see

we've got a narrow window here and somehow in this lot we've got to find

our canola harvest losses. It's like finding a needle in a haystack. We're

looking for a very small seed in a large amount of material. We really believe

that there's almost no point in looking on the ground looking for canola because

the seed is so small. I've personally been a bit vocal about getting the

harvesters to slow down to minimize losses. That's one level that we can pull

but that's the last resort we really want to maintain capacity and keep the

losses at an acceptable level. So what is acceptable loss?

Well 1% is the internationally accepted figure we want to be below 1% for most

crops cereal crops however canola often it's in that 2 to 3

percent range. I think we can do better than that in the long term but if your

canola losses are below 2 to 3% you've got it about right. As part of this

project that I've been working on with GRDC investment I've created a

twitter handle for you to come and share your experiences. It's called @ harvest

loss. What we want to do is measure our harvest losses, get on that Twitter

handle share experiences, we'll put our heads together and work out

how to halve the canola harvest losses in Australia. To measure it there are some

new tools that you can use that it make it really easy and we're going to show

you those tools because as the old adage says if you don't measure it you can't

manage it.
