    You all really liked the video that I made on amateur vs pro graphic designs, and how graphic design artwork can be made better with just quick, minor adjustments. And so I made a new video based around slightly more advanced techniques or changes that you can follow along with and test your very own knowledge or creative eye.
    Graphic design should be based upon the raw basics and the fundamental that determine if a design will succeed in carrying the message effectively to the audience. With the knowledge of the adjustments that I make in this kind of video, your graphic designs can be elevated to new heights.

    Really interesting stuff! I liked how you explained your reasoning. For the second design, I would've left aligned the text as a lot of the weight is already on the right due to the illustration of the girl. Additionally, I would've picked a font with more roundness to it to match the illustration style. Also there's a lot of blue and purple, I would change the coin and finance text to gold as it complements the purple and is often associated with money and it would make those elements pop out more.

      why would you have chosen gold? But it's a fair point

    • @behystudio
      @behystudio 3 роки тому +56

      @@SatoriGraphics Well, as you said in the video design is subjective and depends on designers choice but I think for that design making the colour Gold is to show the value of the coin/money in general and to make it stands out a bit more and a bit more contrasty. I would also try a mixture of dark grey and matte gold colour to make it a bit more unique. but again it's all comes to the mind behind the designers. I'm still learning :))

    • @user-wk8vo4ju7o

      @jenssteenmetz2461 3 роки тому +26

    • @IStMl
      @IStMl 3 роки тому +6

      Yup, golden coin for contrast, and "finance" in gold too, so that the eye connects the 2.
      This way the flow would be: Face (faces have almost the highest visual hierarchy in our brains) --(eyes looking)--> coin --(color)--> FINANCE

    I feel like a good point with the Square vs. Round call to action icons, is that the important thing is to consider the choice you're making and why you're making it. You could make them circles to have repetition, or you could make them squares for contrast, but the important thing is to be intentional and know why you did what you did.

    About the last part of the video,
    wouldn’t it be more logical to place the text on the left , since English is from left to right, and image on the right?
    Also I think the overly small text might be challenging for an older audience to read and it does leave much space.

    Healthy & Fresh... Although repetition is a massive factor you would've got that same effect with the rectangle border, the green rectangle backdrop and the subheading. The reason the circles work a lot better is because they give off more of a friendly and bubbly vibe that you want people to feel while looking at this which will incline them to look further into it. :)

  • @noahgeerdink5144
    @noahgeerdink5144 3 роки тому

    In the example with the square social icons, I feel like changing the icons to circles increased contrast more.. Because the borders around the image are square, as-well-as the text. Making them Circular made them stand out from the rest in the design whilst also connecting it to the vegetable elements in the design

    Lots of good info here. On example 3, I would add that it might be a good idea to choose a solid cut of the instagram logo, instead of the outlined one, as the outlined one has much less contrast compared to the other three logos.
