My Designs Were AMATEUR Before Learning These!

- Can I make these graphic designs BETTER!? In todays 'before and after' video, I take a deep dive into 2 designs where I dismantle them, make changes, and try to improve their quality.
This series on my channel has been one of the best successes and most well received. You the audience really seem to enjoy seeing my design process, and if I can in fact make the designs better with some tweaks here and there.
For this specific before and after graphic design video, I have only chosen to work on 2 designs. In the past, I have worked on more than 2 in a single video, but this time around I wanted to pay more attention and show more detail on each example.
Out of the bottled water design and the music events poster, I'm not sure which one I prefer after my designs were complete. However, I do like them both and feel they were a success. But what do you guys think? Were my graphic design changes decent enough, and did I improve the existing designs with some before and after touches?

• My Designs Were AMATEU...
Video Notes:
Design 1. I knew when designing the first example that the scale of the decking and water bottles were not realistic. I could have found a new image of decking but I ended up running out of time. I could also have scaled down the size of the bottles, but then they would be too small for the image considering they are meant to be one of the focal points of the design. Also yes, they should have more transparency. If I had more time and could go back into the design again, I would work in some transparency in Photoshop.
Design 2. The stripes are actually on the original poster, but they are merely just stripes. I decided to increase the scale of the models face using the mask, which leads into that 'change' and sense of 'revolution.' The idea of this video is to show people who are interested in learning about psychology and concepts within a design, and how they can play into the final solution

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 perfect content as usually !!
You only focus on layout not so readable. They have other people like bigger text so that more readable
We need improvement. We must make some text readable not like that it's to small and hard to read the content
@@grerovambrozoyuz9426 it's actually very readable for the medium it's intended for.
@@AK-ir1se Somewhat. I think small text for minor details is OK.
But the DJ's name in 2nd design should have been larger, & maybe the small print could have been larger as well, since it may be printed as a flyer that is the size of your hand. (I used to DJ & produce raves & discotechs in EU & USA. DJ name & social media info VERY important)
I loved the 2nd redesign much better than 1st redesign, in 1st redesign I think the text and the background needs more contrast, otherwise everything is good 👍
I'm with you. At the first design, I think, the bottles are too small and not as present, as they should be. The second design catched me immediately.
@Satori Graphics: I like this type of before&after videos. Looking forward to see more of these.
Thanks for the feedback
@@SatoriGraphics everything learnt from you Sir 🙏🙏
Thanks, I'm starting out in design as a beginner. All your videos are really helpful.
Really glad to hear that, thanks!
2nd looks great but having the date and DJ name so small does not work well as an advertising for an event. the main function of the ad is telling potential audience when you can see what dj (who is the main reason assuming its a household name to attend especially this event) and this is easily overlooked. it might work well for a booze event but the design hints to a classy clubbing.
That was my problem too
As usual these videos give a lot of insight on how to approach a design problem giving inside tips thus on how to present it to the client. I really love how you present the design as a collection of carefully thought out objective choices taking away the guess work on the subjectivity usually associated with art forms. Thanks for these, and I'm always amazed at the redesigns you present!
The glow up u gave the 2nd design was def needed 🌟💯 the use of typography was way nicely on my eyes to see here then the original
thanks for that Edward, and hope you're keeping well
honestly i am really happy to find a teacher like you
Hey thanks for this :)
This is so helpful! I love these minimalistic designs. As a digital marketer I work a lot on creating banner ads and I sometimes struggle a lot on keeping it simple, it´s always lovely coming back to your videos to ground my designs with your tips.
Love it. As someone who is learning, these comparisons and improvements are absolutely key!! The second re design is beautiful!
I love this kind of videos it still amazes me when i see how can a design change just through typography and layout and a sense of hireachy thanks satori always learning us new things
Happy to hear that man thanks
Love this style of content, thank you!
For the second design, I think your version could be more functional with the event date higher in the design hierarchy, maybe to be placed under the event title? It seems like information too important to be included so tiny and at the very bottom.
I'm only a beginner - thoughts?
I think you are right
As usual and expected, you gave us the succinct rationale behind PRO and Amateur designs. From my point of view, you captured some of the sine qua non design principles that every graphic designer must commit to heart. Simple and minimalistic designs. To cap it all, you design well my gaffer. God bless always. You are the best!
as always you helping me to see what I should to see, many thank for this episode 🙌
That second design...wow. Thanks for sharing. More of these please.
Yeaaahhh this awaited series is back...
Thank You...
The redesigns were awesome, love how much you know about designing, as a graphic design student and amateur designer (on and off for about 7 years - started in hs and worked in yearbook and after school just did lots of art, took 3 years off to pursue other interests), you sound so much like all my teachers and just love your work overall- inspires me to continue to learn more and more as well as design a lot more :)
Thanks a lot for this reply Devante. Have yourself a great day
These videos comparing are brilliant. I’d like to see a walk through of ‘how’ you did it too. I’m on week 4 of my design journey. Your videos have been an awesome resource
I LOVED IT SOOO MUCH! I need to get in your thought process because your after result is awesome! More of this please 😁😁😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I really love the way you explain things.
I cannot express my feeling here in words how good all your designs are, I am addicted to see your work
This is the best format for design inspiration and gain deep insights in the process
Wow! Such a simplistic and informative video, great work.
I love watching this. I'm only just beginning my career as a graphic designer (career switching) and I can learn a lot from watching how other designers approach this. Thanks for sharing!
Happy to hear that Marlies :)
Im a marketing student. Before college, I do edits for fun (fan made kpop poster, wattpad covers, blog covers in amino and such) what took me some time to figure out were always mentioned in your short videos. This would totally be helpful especially those who are just starting💕💕

I love this video. Since I discovered your channel, you've been my inspiration because I'm a self taught designer. I'll keep watching your videos back to back

@@SatoriGraphics you welcome. Please I'll also like it if you'll be dropping videos on inspirational web pages for graphic designs for flyers. Thanks
Tnx, I've learnt lots of things, if God is willing I will try them. It hath much points for creating better designs.
I loved the font you choose, sometimes is hard to find a nice looking font for an specific design
Great content just as always. Thank you so much.

Anticipating
Thanks. This tip is very useful for me.
Glad to hear that!
I was waiting for this 🤟🤟

Tom you are the GOD of design :) Respect from Bucharest
Brilliant, very interesting to watch

Thanks :)
Redesign of the second one is so much better.
Glad to hear it thanks!
2nd Design is Very Bold, And I Really Liked It 🙏
Thanks for liking
I liked the video.hope to see more of such design s
More to come, but there is an entire playlist on my channel homepage
Loved the Revolution design. The bands really solidified the concept of a revolution and movement!
thanks man
I like the re-designed layouts - especially the second one. first one I would have changed here and there a few things. For example, the CTA in the bottom right corner - then you can delete it also, drop it to the product where it belongs. And talking about the product - the bottles are too tiny.
Ma Sha Allah. Very helpful. Boss
Most welcome :)
Thanks brother.
Np :)
nice concept
Amazing video. Please share more of BEFORE-AFTER.
Thank you, I will
The Dasani 'after' design looked much better imo (wasn't sure about the waterfall background at first combined with the size of the bottles relative to the page) but the darkened outer (a trick I've used a few times myself!) made it work. The left alignment I thought was an odd choice, but again works well. The original looked like a quick mock up for an ad to get the job done.
The second poster was a vast improvement over the original also (the only thing bothering me was the date at the very bottom, I'd personally make that larger). The red diagonal lines across the page really made the poster (Love things on a diagonal, for dynamism) and the red really brought everything together.
I would be interested to know how long you spent on each 'before & after'?
Nice video Sataou
Love Your Content 💓😍
Thanks Sazzad :))
You are the best Tom
thanks bro, I'm not but I do try lol
Came to the channel because I could not remember that special / cool / popular font you are using to often.
So I said... well, firstly, let's watch THIS new video...
Guess what?! You mentioned the name of the font IN this video. Must 'be' the 'Dao'... /wink
Wish you all the best, Tom. I hope everything's great with you. You deserve it. 👍
revolution was very nice indeed !
I’d like more of these videos.
Nice video Thanks
its very cool design and great content thank you
Great to hear that :D
both designs are amazing
Thanks so much for the positive comment :)
Thank you
do more of these please..
That Revolution design is ridiculously good, fair play 👏🏻
Are you taking on design work?
thank you
Cool redesign!
Cheers 👍
Not Satori going all, "looks amateurish and tacky" lol. Me amateur smiling here. Enjoy these kind of videos and my only complaint is that the video wasn't long enough. Wouldn't have minded a before and after of ten designs posters. Enjoy this series, hope you make more..
I feel like how can I download the whole channel 😅 you are a great teacher
You can check out the playlists and download the content to your brain 🧠
Very Nice
Pls do this more really helps what a designer should strive for rather just doing a bland design
I'll surely look into doing more like this.
love your ideas. But I do like drop shadow :)
everyone has their opinion :P
Thanks
great men!
The Revolution upgrade is very good actually. The original was not bad, but the 2nd is just much better.
What software do you use to make these kind of panels? Photoshop or Illustrator?
while you‘re absolutely right about the different fonts in the first sample there are some serious issues with your design, as well:
mixing the volumes with the phone number on the same line makes no sense. no padding between font and bluebar looks just not good.
the background… yes it is subjective. we all learn not to drink out of a creek or river, so the message for pure, clean water here is difficult.
the angle the bottles stand on this deck is just eyewatering wrong.
the bottles are not transparent where they should be. You could solve that with some kind of subtle shine around them.
I'm pretty sure the green on the 1st redesign is because of FIJI water's campaigns.
TBH for the bottles and photoshop stuff I give him a pass as I look as this as more of a design idea than a final design that would be printed. If a client was paying for this I would expect more time would be taken to perfect the bottles and maybe even shoot them in a studio.
Spot on, the phone number is blending in instead of doing cta. Not a fan of white text over waterfall either.
@@digwillhachi Yeah I wish I had more time. Making YT videos, being a designer by trade, running various websites, crypto trading and other things, means I can't really give my fullest to these designs. Often designers will purposely create compositions where things are not scaled properly, and as I was designing this I did know the decking was not realistic relative to the bottles. I just didn't;'t decide to do anything about it.
@@SatoriGraphics really cool answer - I know exactly what you mean, because I recognize myself in it :-). 👍🏻
amazing work as always satori can you just give us the fonts name
