    Thank you so much, fellow ex-colleague! (architect planning to transition here as well). You cut the bullshit and go straight to the point with hundred percent honesty without sugarcoating stuff, I appreciate that so much, thanks again. P.S. Could not help but notice that the initial stages of the video you still have sunlight outside, and as it proceeds it's evening time :D grateful for the hard work and contribution.

      Hey, former ex-colleague! Happy architecture to UX transition. 😃 You're very welcome. Some folks don't like that style, but hey, I don't like people to sugarcoat things for me either. I love that you noticed the time changing. Haha, that's the architect in you showing up! Jokes aside, thanks for saying that; it helps me stay motivated to continue making content after a long day of work. Good luck with the career transition!

    I took down notes for anyone needing them. TOPICS
    PHASE 1: Discovery and Research ~ one to two days
    PHASE 2: Strategy and Problem Definition ~max one day
    PHASE 3: Design & Ideation ~ two to three days
    PHASE 4: Crafting the Case Study ~ take your time crafting a great story
    PHASE 1:
    Why - what is your goal?
    Who- your audience?
    Context- client’s needs & use cases.
    What is the company Constrains- MVPs of the product, timeline
    How can you make it your own?
    PHASE 1:
    User Interviews - need finding
    Understand & define the pain points (2-3 participants is enough) (Business goals)
    Make a list of assumptions
    PHASE 2:
    How might you solve the pain points?
    What features can you design/build? - what new experiences can you create that help solve some of the pain points that we saw
    What are the goals and hypotheses? - what am I trying to achieve with this new experience ~and tie them back to the pain points I saw in my research
    PUTTING TOGETHER A COHESIVE STORY WITH THE CASE STUDY. ~phase one phase two to tie well together
    PHASE 3:
    Explore, sketch, wireframe have fun!
    Do a mini brainstorm (even by yourself) ~ show that process in your case study
    Start drafting your user journeys, CUJs ~ what are the edge cases you need to consider, can create journey based on primary CUJ
    If useful, create a task model ~ to help you think through all the steps that the user needs to complete to use the feature or complete the task that they are trying to achieve with your product
    Select your primary flows ~ can start wireframing this in high fidelity
    Which features to highlight? ~ in your case study
    Consider prototype / animations
    IF YOU DON’T HAVE TIME, WHICH PARTS OF THE JOURNEY WOULD YOU CREATE HIGH FIDELITY, WHICH ONES WOULD YOU LEAVE AT MEDIUM FIDELITY / LOW FIDELITY
    PHASE 4:
    How will you tell the story?
    Where will you host your case study?
    Take your time crafting a great story

    Do you have any advice for a 28 yr old guy who just unf*cked his life, has one year learning ux design and is working in small graphic design projects. How can I get into the industry?
    I love your videos man!

    • @rahpstudio
      @rahpstudio  10 місяців тому +12

      Thanks man, I really appreciate that! Funny story, I switched to UX design when I was 28 too! So I wouldn't be worried about your age at all. There are so many ways to get into the industry that you'll hear throughout YT but, for me, going back to school so I could do internships (because most internships you have to be a full time student) was the best strategy I could think of because I'm not good at networking (or I should say, I don't enjoy it). I enrolled in a 3 year program and then I dropped out after I got a full time job from the Google internship 🤣.
      I also got an offer from another internship so it wasn't just Google and, yes, I did have to take on student debt but my new UX income definitely makes up for it and I should be able to pay it off in a couple of years. I know school is not possible for everyone so, if you're good at networking I would say take that route, meet people at industry events, hackathons, meetups, and then do some pro bono work to get some real client projects under your belt (for non-profits and industries that you care about). Hope this helps, you got this 💪.

      Right now I'm working on projects for my portfolio and getting involved in online communities.
      It is a little scary, I live in México and I'm self taught, that makes me feel insecure sometimes about my communication skills, or just about my general knowledge in technical scenarios. But I love the small steps.

      Absolutely! That's another great thing to add if you have time. In my experience, competitor analysis can take up a lot of time and you can't really go into detail in your case study so, perhaps you can spend some time looking at competitors and just give some high level insights in your case study, just to show that you did it.

    For an interaction process, what device frame would you use? Would you use an Android phone, iPhone or just something that resembles a smartphone in general? Not sure how much of a difference it makes, depending on who sees it, but that's something that's been on my mind since forever. Also, I am so glad this channel seems to be working out for you right now. I'm definitely sharing your videos whenever I get the chance to.

    • @rahpstudio
      @rahpstudio  10 місяців тому +8

      Thanks so much @Kephinio! I really appreciate that 😊. That's a great question. I would say the bias is towards mobile devices and most designers like to use iPhone but you could make an argument that you are using Android because it's more used in the world and your product needs to reach a global audience. I think it comes down to what device your experience / case study is optimized for and you can build a story around that. For example, if you're designing a puzzle game for grandparents and grandkids to bond, then a tablet might make more sense so that both are able to play together. Hope this helps and that you're doing well!
