  • 10 Things I Wish I Knew before becoming a Graphic Designer. I love being a designer and the lifestyle that comes with it, however, it’s a little intimidating to figure out where to start. I hope this video will give you some insight into how to be a graphic designer and learn from some of my past successes, stories, and mistakes I made as a new designer.

    Than you for speaking on not needing to be a great artist/drawer to work in and be successful in this field. I've always talked myself out of applying for a visual communications program for this reason and feel like a fraud. I'm not starting to see that unless you specifically are an illustrator or focus more on illustrated designs, you can either do work that doesn't require much of it or hire someone on to do that work for you. Thanks for mentioning this factor.

      No problem, glad you enjoyed the video!

    What a goldmine your channel has been. I’ve recently made the decision to learn graphic design and am constantly inspired by creators like you. Any advice for resources (aside from your booklist!) to learn the fundamentals? Appreciate you 😭

    Awesome advice dude. I feel like I can apply a lot of this to music, Especially the share your work segment. I used to be super self-conscious about sharing stuff cause it wasn't "good enough" but I've been trying to practice Wabi-Sabi more. Nothing is perfect, nothing is permanent, nothing is ever complete.

      Well said my dude, appreciate the love!

    Great video as always, man. As a fledgling designer, this is some super useful advice, especially the point about doing a lot of work and trying to nail down a style. That's the phase I'm in right now.
    Also, I tried to get into the Discord server but Discord is saying your link it invalid or expired. Has it changed?

      Thank you so much Seymour. Been having trouble with the invite codes in the description for some reason. Try this one discord.gg/QT5JHN9

    another design software rec is inkskape! super awesome open source alternative to illustrator. haven't used it in a bit cause i now have a adobe subscription through school, but inkskape is really solid, and some parts are probably even better than illustrator imo

    • @JesseNyberg
      @JesseNyberg  3 роки тому +1

      Yes! I totally forgot about Inkscape, I used to use it on my moms old laptop haha.

    1 thing i wish i knew before i was a designer
    whatever you first think you should price work at, double it at the very least

    • @JesseNyberg
      @JesseNyberg  3 роки тому
