The problem is style of substance. The presentation,the design of the website is great, but the content feels like a bunch of random incoherent stuff put together with a catchy name.

Yes the webpage is beautiful, there are nice animations, but that's it, there is nothing else. It's an nice portfolio though, but there is nothing to discuss when it comes to UX/UI itself.

Because that's been done before; go lookup 10 GUI, and it will look remarkably similar. It's different from the accepted standard, but not actually a new concept.

How is it random incoherent stuff? Did you even watch the video? It seems pretty straightforward and refreshing.

There's nothing about UX design in the video either.

If he wants a job building marketing pages and videos for software, sure.

But if he wants a job as a UX designer, and I would go by the info on his sites, his design process consists of mockups and talking about it with his professors.

Seriously, if these are his skills, how the hell would he do UX design for an assignment when the target audience does not include himself?
