    You are a master of UA-cam video format. The hooks, the story, the editing and production are at the level where people would show your videos to film students and say “do this”

    Because of you i started to view Typography as something incredibly valuable. I know it sounds silly but i used to pick clean, good alignment and structure over everything. Which meant the font was never customized and unique! I am sooooo grateful to be following You for so long because you've changed the way I design in so many ways! My big tip i can share for others though I'd always start your logo design in Black. It helps focus on the structure, shape, etc before adding color!

    • @abiconnick

But I think you're right, it's good to identify trends and maybe incorporate that in to some design assets like posters, social media etc, but you don't want your logo or branding to be styled from a trend because as it comes and goes it will be left outdated!

    • @abiconnick
      @abiconnick  2 роки тому +1

      Don't worry I have plenty of design videos coming soon! But if you want to work for yourself having a good business understanding is needed! If you're just starting out I'd recommend focusing on improving as a designer, then focus on business later down the line, because you can still get clients if you have no business skill, but if you want to grow your business you'll need to learn how to!

This is where all my ideas are generated and it gets my brain ticking and I find myself at my most creative! Look up the businesses competitors , research what it is the business offers, find out the unique selling point of the product or service. All this should help with creative ideas.

    • @abiconnick
      @abiconnick  Рік тому

      I've actually worked with lots of clients from all over the world and have been designing for 7+ years. Over the last year, my business has pivoted into providing education, resources and courses for designers and therefore am working with a limited of clients/businesses designing their brands. The majority of the work and designs you see on this UA-cam channel are purely passion projects as sometimes I can't always share client work because the projects take months and some clients don't want me to share the process etc.
      My portfolio isn't on my website as my business's target audience is designers so it caters towards their needs, but I have a private portfolio that I send to prospective clients.
