Here you go

OK, college class idea: students do a group project where one is a business major, one is design, one is web dev, etc., and they're each graded on the results of the same project, but based on different rubrics based on their majors. And they're allowed to see each others' rubrics and have to work together to get everyone a good grade. I see all sorts of ways that could go wrong, but I also think it would create a level of project realism I never saw in school.

Excellent Idea, students should work like this on their projects and even it would be good if they manage to get internships.

lol I think that’s called running a business

advice from an old designer: leaving school is just the beginning of your education- if it was the right kind of school it gave you some foundation and the discipline to work and improve on your own. not all students can make the change from being told what to do to being self driven. continual learning and experimentation should go on the rest of your life.

As an agency owner, I love this. Keep educating! Fave tip: In the end you will not work alone. For the ones wanting to be a freelancer I'd like to add this to his tips... At some point clients will make you do things you don't get, like or agree with no matter what boundaries you set, and it's usually your friends/family/referral work. Don't let it frustrate you or you won't make it - either due to being overly sensitive about creative freedom / being trusted for your knowledge, or losing clients due to having attitude about it. Customer service with a smile is just as important as design when you're running a business.

"have to learn how to make designs tell a stories" ! - I really like this one! a strong one! it's kinda like storytelling in a film. I also use a design book first for sketchups (even if you can't beautifully draw) it's a great tip to shorten your time spend on your screen figuring out what you really want.

I come from a filmmaking background. My degree is in cinematography, and I've been mostly making things that started with me grabbing a camera. However I've gotten into motion graphics a lot over the past years, and having a decade of After Effects behind me helped a lot getting going - but I've come to the obvious realization that if I am going to do motion graphics I need to learn graphic design as well. So I'm extremely grateful that there's all these resources out here for people like me to get a better grasp of it.

Are you switching career?

This is my favorite video! As a junior designer, I find this very helpful, thank you!

Thanks Ran! Such great mentorship as always!!

So glad I found your channel. I graduated college in 1999 and I've been working at a newspaper for 23 years. Not much change until the last few years. I feel like I need to return to school now.

Thank you for such an amazing video!! Every single pointer makes so much sense to an aspiring designer like me 😊

Whoever is doing the Flux thumbnails these days are doing a great job 👍

It’s me (Ran), trying to up my game. Appreciate the comment 🙏

Seriously THANK YOU for this curriculum.

I appreciate you my dude 🎉 it hard to keep my attention and I love how you got to the point and added a little details to help me get the gist and a better understanding

Thank you sooo much😊. I stopped with my studie and now I'm searching for a new one, this video helped me alot😊

Great content as always! Thank you.

Thank you for such a brief consolidation of what you learnt. It’s pretty inspiring and think on a second thought for these core elements topics. Love you and thank you so much

Yesss! I did a year and have been itching to learn more in graphic designing. GD has a special place in my heart. I

Amazing as always!

Excellent video, form and function!

Thank you, it's been a great value ❤️

My main interest at the moment is not so much graphic designing, but illustration work, such as my current profile picture, but I'm not sure how to turn that into a career. I wouldn't mind developing skills related to all aspects of computer designing including engineering, graphic designing and programming.

thanks Ran for sharing this!

Thank you for your course

Thanks for the video - I bet you are great to work with (clear communication and personable).

Thank you for sharing your story and experience. 👍

I came here because I’m about to graduate and it’s been brought to my attention that I need to start thinking of what to do after graduation. Thanks for the little help

In Canada, our design education is highly focused on business. In fact, we had business and marketing classes every semester for the last 2 of 3 years. It could be because we also have Canadian design associations to help protect and support the industry? And our work always had an element of working with support workers, such as in teams, or the photography department.

That's good to know! I think you're lucky in that sense!

I dropped out of Design University in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, in my second year. As I finished high school of Arts, most classes felt repetitive. What's shameful is the fact that the Graphic Design section had no real practical programs (for at least three years). Not even a single student had any interaction with the real world, as most of us didn't even know what a Design Agency was. Not sure if the Master years (years 4 and 5) were any different, but the University failed to show true value and learning potential for the young upcoming designers. It was like they couldn't care less for the future of 50 students, as long as the money stacked nicely in their pockets. The funny thing is that I dropped out in my second year, and out of those 50 students, I'm one of the few to make a long-lasting career in graphic design.

Amazing video❤️🙏🏼😻

Thanks Very Use full Information I Subscribe

Hi Ran, can you do a video on Readymag? I'd love your input

I’m not sure you saved me 4 years or 100k, but good summarization. It’s easy to say the things you learned and what you learned yourself, but without college, I would have never learned what I know now. AI, XD, LR, ID, PS, PR, DW, Cinema4d, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, Java, art history and the impacts on modern culture, design techniques, media writing, importance of Ux/UI, workflow, photography, film, proper typography, and the list goes on. And that was just in 2 years!!

I'm not anywhere near college and I just accidentally made some design for a sign to my room and oh my god it was so exciting- it was my first time using Adobe .

Considering changing my major to graphic design and minor in digital marketing (or should I double major?). I love that you included punk flyers, I never really gave much thought to the style. I grew up playing and sometimes creating show flyers, band logos, stenciling band shirts, never gave graphic design much thought until now lol Raymond Pettibon did a lot of awesome art for Black Flag. He was actually the guitarist, Greg Ginn's brother and had played bass in Panic beforehand. They had to change their name and he choose the name and created their famous bar logo and tons of awesome flyer and t-shirt designs.

bruh.. you are dope.. i think i won't need to learn design if i just cover all your videos from here.. haha you are in the loss brother.. you should've sold these with prices. now your knowledge is open for guys like us !!! Thank you so much for making these videos brother ! god bless you

I'm studying from this year on IT products in design. (3d, motion, material science for environmental design, game design, UI-UX for web and even for real transport, product design) We will get only 1 semester of graphic design soon and, yea, seams like that will be more then enough. In my country too much universities with graphic design degree and only few with... well... design...

thank u

Thanks

Hey Ran, can you recommend some books for art history?

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?

How to get the certificate though? Now that I have done the Degree.

It's been one month, just before my 4th semester final I left my university studies to explore and grow personally, seeking opportunities beyond traditional education...

Funnily enough I’m not even majoring graphic design in uni, but since I do spend my leisure time doing some digital art which makes me relatively familiar with some graphic design apps and websites, I have been doing little commissions and errands for my schoolmates here and there 😂 there are several times which they required something that I never did before (such as designing logos) and I have to turn to KZread and Google for help. Anyways it is painful but enjoyable experience haha

I looked to enroll in a graphic design bootcamp, but hell it was 8 months and the price was an astounding 10500 euro so I'll pass and self study the bases then do a degree.

This Flux Academy KZread channel has become the alternative to The Future With Chris Do KZread channel

Designers must have a combination of knowledge to be successful in business. University is a waste of time considering the amount of information available online.

Which college is best for graphic design?

I have a high school senior who loves designing. We have countless sketchbooks on the shelves! In your professional opinion, is this a field that he can learn on his own by watching videos or must he go to college. Our local community college has a one year certificate and a 2 year associate degrees in digital design. And of course there are 4 year degrees at the universities.

So the question is do you believe that graphic design is a good major to take up in order to be a business owner? And do you actually make money in this career how hard is it to fall back on?

Graphic design is a great major to take and you'll always be able to make money, but it's not necessary in order to be a business owner (if your business is not design related).

great

As an audio guy, might I suggest reducing the gain and/or the high end frequencies on your audio interface. Very clashy and alot of mouth noise when using headphones.

Hi! Can you create a video on how to describe your design to a client? Like I chose this font because... this button is this/here because... something like that

Cool idea, this is an important skill. Check out Matt's video "Sound like a Pro designer in 5 steps". We also have some videos on presenting your work which may help. Also notice how our presenters describe the designs they're creating or reviewing. (Ran and Matt have done a lot of review videos.)

This is no joke, 12 min have saved me 4 years

my mistake at uni was not learning the tools in the adobe suite before i started. it slowed me down and fucked meup. on the plus side i learnt photoshop loads in 3 weeks than i did Ai in 2 years at uni. typical. we didnt even use PS in our GD course

Can anybody help answer my question as , In USA undergrad in Graphic and Digital Design is a STEM designated program?

i want to do grafic design

You can have design without type. Look at street signs and posters that are solely visual metaphors.

No way can you tell us all you learned and unlearned in 4 years of college - or 4 years anywhere. Besides, without trying to do otherwise and always failing, how could we really know that these lessons were really valid ? All the stuff on cubism, constructivism, etc plus the history of graphic design, photo techniques, human perception, psychology, philosophy, communication, color symbolisms, etc, etc soaked slowly into the mind is much more than what anyone can tell us in 15 minutes. Go back to college, Segal 😑
