Moral of the story: Don't be afraid to be a Paul Rand. Don't be afraid of your clients. If they don't respect you or feel you're not good enough, you don't need them.

I love the pauses. He really THINKS about what he is going to say - rather than just filling space with hot air.

I think that, for once, Steve Jobs met someone like himself, and got told "No." And he respects that. An artist who solves business problems.

In the many interviews I've seen with Steve Jobs, there is one thing he does consistently that I don't see a lot of other people do. When asked a question, he always leaves a moment of silence while he thinks of the answer. Different than most that try to start answering as soon as possible without really thinking it through.

I've noticed that too ! He was such a genius and had really great communication skills. ❤

Steve is obviously a deep thinker himself. He's one of those people who takes time to consider the best way to phrase his response before retorting - rather than what most of us do: saying 'um' 'er' 'it's kinda..'

I could listen to Steve Jobs for hours. What fascinates me most about him are his failures. He really knows how to move on, learn from your experience, and remain undeterred in your vision. He received so many invaluable lessons through his failures. Amazing.

i am so enthusiastic for learning from people like steve j. i just feel extremely passionate about being in touch with such people.

Really like the positive talking of Steve it gives progress in thinking about the talked subject positive thinking gives results in acting, love it, thanks Steve and life along in mind and memory

I love steve's dramatic pauses in his speaking. Not immediately after a question was asked, but mid sentence where he'd stop, and put together his next lines very masterfully. Also notable in his opinion of Microsoft around this era.

This interview shows one thing clearly; Jobs didn't know alot about graphic design and design in generell as alot of his former colleagues stated, but he had the intellectual capability to recognize its traits and appreciate them for what they are not being coscience about it, that those are fundamentals. Alot of the things he describes here talking about Rand is the absolute basic graphic design.

How is your graphi designing going? I don't know if you use this account now or not but would love to hear your experience in these 10 years :)

Nice insight into brand building

God I wish I was at that level where I could say to a client "No you don't know your talking about, you don't have taste or know what good design is, I'm going to give you something, your going to use it and you have no say in it's design or revisions and I'm not going to do an endless back and forth with you and that's it.

This is interesting because of the fact that IBM had Paul Rand do their logo, and now Steve Jobs went and had Paul Rand redo Apples. Both were competitors since the begging of the making of Apple. Besides the fact, Paul Rand was a smart man with design assets that could solve any problem.

brilliant insight into the mind of a genius

As an engineer, I love the part about bringing solutions to a client, not options. After all, the client wants a problem solved, and a good engineer is able to instinctively know which "option" is best and worth exploring. So one might as well stop wasting anybody's time and just doing the right thing, instead of having the client choose between multiple alternatives.

I'd like to reference this for an essay I am writing for uni, Can you provide any referencing information like where your sourced this interview, and who conducted it and when? Thank you very much!

Very interesting. Praise our lord and savior, O Steve Jobs.

Two years before I was born.

Steven Paul Jobs (San Francisco, 24 de febrero de 1955-Palo Alto, 05 de octubre de 2011) fue un empresario, diseñador industrial, magnate empresarial, propietario de medios e inversor estadounidense. Fue cofundador y presidente ejecutivo de Apple​ y máximo accionista individual de The Walt Disney Company. 69 AÑOS 56 AÑOS 13 AÑOS.

two geniuses.

i love the way the steve jobs think

this is raw footage, which is why there are pregnant pauses before SJ answers the questions. These are usually edited out, unless it's for drama. The take-away is don't be afraid to think long and hard before speaking when answering a question while cameras are rolling! It's way different when it's a live interview. SJ and Paul Rand are amazing, as is my friend Doug Evans who orchestrated this interview.

🔥🔥🔥🔥

i like it

Deep gratitude for all you have done for me, big apologies for not being able to clarify the whole misunderstanding that took place in a proper way, i appreciate very much for giving such a precious opportunity and valuable experience, until tomorrow good night have an excellent day

Jobs has always been years ahead of his contemporaries. He had that weirdo page boy haircut years before it was popularized by Javier Bardem! : )

Paul is a legend

3:10 is Gold : )

@xr0 He is not talking about the Apple logo. He is talking about the NeXT logo.

His logo may look dated now, but I could see it as one of those logo's I grew up seeing. If it really looked dated they could update this, though you want a logo to last over time, sometimes they need to change.

@PabloNeirotti Since NeXT was founded in 1985, they were ahead of their time, then.

1993 to be exact

Steve jobs knows what logo is.

@kurt05051987 I believe he was talking about the [eye] [bee] M poster, which was unclear from his response.

Cameraman was playing with the camera for sure

gr8t

Lectures studied. Greeting from Angola.

while I was reading that I heard him say uhh 3 times

I always thought the Next symbol was crap. I think Steve bought into the emperors cloths on this one, no doubt because he was fresh from the sting of leaving Apple and he didn't want to be a boat rocker at the time.

No much zoom. Can't the cameraman zoom more?

Joshua Kleckner most of the businesses have higher chances of failure (fact), so we (as designers) shouldnt bother, it is not our headache. We should be more focused on our quality of work and the income we are generating from that project. Along with money, we should also see the profile of the client you are serving, he might bring more projects to you in future (very rare).

He invisioned a more useable interface and a more media purposeful devices but a lot of the technical work was done by real computer engineers. If Bill Gates stole from Apple, Apple stole from xerox. Steve Jobs only feat was that he kept his company alive through persistence while companies like Commodore/Amiga (who at the time had better computers) gave up because they lacked the leadership of a persistent owner.

Paul rand NEVER made anything for apple... he designed a logo for NeXT, a company from Steve jobs after he was laid off from Apple.

I miss you, Steve. Fuck cancer.

Oh come on. Sure, he waits sometimes before he speak but he says "ohh" and "umm" and "ahh" just as much as any other guy.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!! He's a business genius. Look at how he turned Apple around. They might not be the largest, but they're the most profitable. He knows how to make a healthy company, not to mention a spectacular operating system. If you can't see this, I feel sorry for you.

@xtreamof marketing idiots? their objective is to get people to remember the logo and the name. so i guess when you can recall it with full detail despite hating it, thats a successful marketing son.

My reaction about the word 'cyber-crime', well I don't practice that one and can't appreciate it. It has to be cybernetica or so to say the science of the reglisation-, stirings-, information- and communicationmechanisme or cybernetics or so to say the science of control in machines, communication, male-, female-, animals, idioom (word-use). Perhaps Paul Rand has also this opinion, kind regards.
