Werkset: Getting Started

Everything you need to know to create your portfolio, showcase your work, and build your creative network.

01

Your Portfolio

Your Werkset is a single, beautiful page that showcases your work. Here's how it's structured.

Hero Section

Your photo, name, job titles, bio, and availability status. This is the first thing visitors see.

Brand Logos

Display logos of clients and companies you've worked with. Builds credibility at a glance.

Project Feed

Your work, displayed beautifully. Each project can have videos, photos, audio, descriptions, and credits.

Contact Section

A built-in contact form so clients and collaborators can reach you directly.

Your portfolio URL is werkset.app/yourusername. You can change your username anytime in settings.

02

Adding Projects

Werkset supports three project types. Choose the one that best fits your work.

Video

Embed from YouTube or Vimeo. Add up to 6 videos per project.

Photo

Upload image galleries. Perfect for photographers and visual artists.

Audio

Upload audio with waveform player. Great for composers and sound designers.

Every project includes:

Title and description
Your roles (Director, Designer, Producer, etc.)
Client name
Collaborator credits
Optional photo gallery
