Solid Advice For Beginner Graphic Designers

You forgot to put the other video, this video was so good, so I wanted to watch the other one

I plan to major in graphic design for uni next year, and every uni website I look at has a degree that leads to graphic design under a different name- fine arts, studio arts, design, and so on- could you help and explain what I should be looking for when trying to find a degree that can put me on the graphic design career path?

Thank you Will! Your channel is a revelation for fresh graphic designers like me. I'm from Germany and there is absolutely no other channel about design that comes close to being as great and informative as yours! You are a real asset, especially for topics such as orientation, motivation and self-doubt. I thank you for this. Your sympathetic and authentic way is fun to listen to.

Hi Will, do you ever get sick of graphic design or feel that minimalistic branding styles are oversaturated/ over done? I’m a beginner graphic designer but already bored of branding and the visual styles I see, what should I do?

Thank you so much for this video <3 you are such a great inspiration to me personally, thank you for your hard work

Im not a beginner but still this video was so informative and inspirational, thank you will❤

love this video, about the app your drawing in it what the name of it ? thank you

Love your videos you actually speak sense! This info is something I will pass on to designers who I manage and juniors I work with!

thank u very much sir

Nice to see that other designers r getting inspiration from Music! U like Meshuggah Will? ✨👀
Come on 7 string and headless?? I thought I was alone hehe 🤘🏽

Great video Will. Definitely helpful, I'm not a beginner but have been stressed in creating the perfect project every time and lost alot of motivation. Much needed video!

Thank you for this awesome advice..... Im a beginner GD and this is not just helpful but an inspiration for me....

always remember, design is human, the art, the project, that's just part of the process, design works with people, the user, the brand and their ideals, the emotions and the vision, design empathy, it's hw you communicate, how the brand express itself, design, at the beggining and the end, is always human, when i started i thought that design was art, then i knew it was project and problem solving, then i realized when i finished my bachelor's in design that it is human, more than soling problems, its solving someone's problem, and why thyat matter, and to whom it matters, and probably after some years design will have a different meaning to me, only time will tell

Quality content 💪💪

Great tips thank you so much :D Trying to just start myself any tips on good time management for someone who's trying to do it on my spare time?

straight to the point, concise, love it.

I loved this video, thanks for the book recommendation.

Thank you so much for this video! Really helpful advices. I'm going to put into practice the 4th one, I'll buy a little sketchbook, have a pencil and start writing or drawing all my ideas. I'm not that good at drawing tbh so that will help me a lot !

You have been a pivot point on my journey into design when i return to your videos as I progressed my learning and I find your videos motivational and informative, great tips Will as ever in this video and I do find the instruction tips on software and details of kerning are keeping me focused ;-)

No hat.

I've learned so much from you, so thank you so much!❤ I would love to see another part of COME DESIGN WITH ME series.🎉❤

Love the process (system), thanks. ❤

Great video and you talked about a inspring video by Peter McKinnon.. I tried to find it. Do you remember the title of it?

Could you please make a video on how to make a better and eye-catching logo presentation, the artboard size and everything, please I am still learning

Great words, love it ❤️

Really love your work 💖🤩

Hi. I have been following your channel and practising hard to learn the art of tracing using Illustrator. I am facing lot of difficulties when I trace Arabic alphabets. I have seen almost all of your videos regarding tracing. But for some reason I am not able to cope up with Arabic or Urdu alphabets as it has lots of turns and corners. Could you please make a video on it. Thanks.

Guitar video from Will?🤔🤔🤔

i love this guy

Its all about problem solving eh... Problem: "how do I tell everyone I bought a new guitar and it has 7 strings and I'm super musical" Answer: "Solid Advice For Beginne........"

I recently graduated a UI/UX design school back in April. And I’ve been sitting on my hands with it, paralyzed by fear that I can’t do it and I’m just a fraud. So I’m about to clock in to my same old forklift job that I hate again on Monday. I don’t know what to do.

Bro gave a free therapy session. Appreciated ❤

constant improvement then. ❤

Do you play PES?... Talk the other work the work 😂😂😂.... Amazing video anyway.. thanks alot

Thank you Boss :)

Hi, Will! We are waiting for Brand Guideline or Logo Guideline for Illustrator🙂. Hope it ll be soon)) Regards!

Thank you so much Will for the content

"focus on systems that get you there", thank you Will

I'm a first-year bachelor of media design student. At the end of this year, I have to choose 1 of 3 majors. I can go into graphic design, UX/UI design or animation. I've already ruled out UX/UI design as I just don't have a passion for this. So I'm left with graphic design and animation. I've been told that graphic design is dying, but animation is a really hard industry to get into - not very helpful advice. I don't really have a preference between the two (and if I could, I would study both!), so I was wondering what your opinion is on graphic design as a career in the future? I should also mention that I'm living in New Zealand - the industry here is behind and not as easy to get into as some other countries might be. So, I know animation is not your career, but what are your opinions on the graphic design industry in the future? Do you see the industry holding strong, or is graphic design a dying industry? I don't think it is a dying industry, but I have been told by many people now that it is; perhaps this is just in New Zealand?

❤ thank you Will. Just started learning graphic design this year including illustrator. Sometimes I question myself, am i in the right path? Because i feel like I'm going too slow though I always tell myself to enjoy the process. I guess some days are just like. Gonna keep going anyway coz I found something I really want to pursue.

Hi Will, thank you for the sharing, you give us mental support to keep moving on. I like design a lot, but I have problem learning the graphic software, there are so many details and steps on the software, how could I overcome this process, could you share with us the learning process of learning the software.Thank you.

Subscribed after the words „prog metal“

Thank you sir, and i think that's enough for me

Best video from all ur stuff ...

@will Paterson what if I can’t draw or sketch can I still venture into graphic design

From a mother of two toddlers that had a huge 4 years gap in the industry of graphic design just to get a bit better at parenting, I thank so so much for your videos. Recently I've started again from scratch and this stuff that you are making is such a big help.

A great piece of advice. 🫡🫡🫡
