Hey thank you so much for watching! 😊 I use 2048x2048 px for posting illustrations to Instagram. For the post card I used a 7” x 5” art board!

Thank you for watching 😊

Hello! Thank you for watching! Since agencies rotate clients at a fast pace - e.g. working with a beauty brand one day and a car company the next, they often look for designers with a variety of styles on their portfolio. Presentation is very important. Similar to your portfolio, your resume should have a polished look when presenting your technical skills and experience. I have a section that lists my specific skills (motion design, ux design, layout design, etc) + programs I specifically use in the Adobe Suite. Your resume should highlight design specific duties like the types of projects you had ownership over or creative campaigns you led / contributed to. Your credentials like what college you graduated from or degree you received is usually a small blip in an ocean of experience you should fill with personal projects, internships, or entry level/freelance roles. I get this question a lot so I will make a video about this one day!

@@cozydreamstudio Thank you so much for your insight! I appreciate it & look forward to a video about it! 😊

Hello, thank you for watching! I used Blender.

Thank you for watching! I used Final Cut Pro to edit the whole video. I occasionally use After Effects and Procreate to make small animations.

Aw thank you so much for watching! Glad it could help and provide a bit more insight into the other design options out there!

Im in the process of considering UX design in the Coursera course, but really considering brand design. I love the creative part of UX design but something about it is not giving me that spark/ excitement.

@@Mia._803 SAME!!! I think it’s just the UX part. I believe we both just want to be apart of the UI spectrum.

Thank you so much for watching!

Haha thank you so much!

Hi! Yes, I was a graphic design major in uni. It's definitely possible to learn the skills you need to become a designer without uni, but it will take a lot of research and commitment to form your own curriculum. In my case, it was worth it because the guidance and structure helped me figure out what was required to reach my goals. I also watched and listened to a lot of design podcasts and read up on resources like TheFutur, Design Matters by Debbie Millman, It's Nice That, School of Motion, etc.

Thank you so much for watching! 😊

Hey, thank you so much! The apps I use most often are Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and Indesign. I also use Figma as well to collaborate with other teams and work on UI/UX design.

Thank you so much for the kind words 🌻 In my current role as a brand designer, I make $90k / year. It depends on a few different factors: your skillset, duties, years of experience and the type of company you work for.

@@cozydreamstudio wow that a lot of money! And your welcome this really helped me

It you tito Egay! You mon former colleagues and dad friend

Hello! Yes, I applied through job boards on AIGA, Working Not Working, LinkedIn, and Indeed when I first got my start. After building my network, I mostly hear from recruiters proactively reaching out through LinkedIn.

Thank you!

Thank you so much! I use a combination of After Effects and Final Cut Pro. I use ProCreate for the illustrated animations.

Thank you so much!

hi! thank you so much! i love your vlogs and your designs - looking forward to seeing more from you!

Thank you so much! ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ

yes please do! i'm curious to know how they came out!

your salary really depends on your level of experience, and the particular set of skills you offer as a designer (for example, do you animate, do 3D art, specialize in packaging or have UI/UX knowledge)? fresh out of college i made about $50K / year in a full time salaried position. In my most recent role as a brand designer, I make $90K / year. It also really depends on the type of company you work for and what your duties will be.

Hi! I'd love to! Here are some tips: 1. Always make time within your week to draw or create something- anything! You can make a little doodle on a napkin, draw a two panel comic strip, or make a giant poster for your favorite movie/band. Never forget that even small opportunities for creation are important, so try to carry a sketchbook around with you no matter where you go. 2. Find designers and artists both online and in person and learn as much as you can from them. Be curious and observe, and ask lots of questions! What do they do for work? What kinds of styles and art forms do they create? For example. My favorite UA-camrs are currently Leah Wei and Cup of Jasmien, and they inspire me to try new projects both related and unrelated to design. 3. Create things you enjoy. What kind of media do you like to consume? Do you like anime/manga? Watching dramas? Or perhaps you just like to listen to music or read? Make it a habit to try creating in different mediums related to the things that bring you happiness and excitement. Make posters, paintings, tshirts, animations, pamphlets, book covers, cards, ceramics, prints! 4. Have confidence to do what you love. When I was your age I was perplexed by my desire to grow as an artist, but then disappointed by the inevitable critique from others. Really try to enjoy what you do as much as possible, whether you have an audience or not, a busy school schedule, high expectations from family or friends, etc... At the end of the day, just look for your personal meaning when creating. I hope this was helpful! This is a very general list, so let me know if you have more questions or need more examples. Good luck! 😊

@@cozydreamstudio thx so much I really appreciate this and will try do as many of theses things

Hi! I usually get an email confirmation within a few hours after ordering from O+F! Sometimes it takes two weeks until I get a shipping notice, though! Hope you were able to receive your package by now 🤞
