Hey man, good message. I actually always struggled with good sketching. I am not terrible, but never was quite good. I now work in one of the best design studios and still really can't sketch. As long as your drawings are communicating the idea well, and are backed up by good thinking, your are enough.

Thats good to hear... which studio are you at? :D

Thank you so much for mentioning this on your channel. This was my biggest fear before I started studying ID since I didn't know how to draw. Then it came up to the point where idea and final product is more important than aesthetic sketches.

So important to get these reminders, because so often all we see online, and social media are these super detailed sketches and it can be hard to not think that you need to compete with that and achieve that level too… So thank you! Great video :)

Always happy to see when you put out more content!

Really clear insights! Thank you!

Great videos Jimmy! You made a lot of great points.

I needed this so much thank you❤

Hi, Jimmy. I'm a teen/young 20s career guide. In researching this field with one of my teen clients and I needed to get clarity on this exact topic. The video was really helpful. Thanks for the time you put into them!!

Totally got me there lol. Hey Jimmy, I noticed something weird on your website. My antivirus blocked it when I try to access it. I still proceeded and saw some crazy error action going on. I felt like I almost got hacked or something.

Thanks jimmy

Thank you for your videos, very helpful.

thanks a lot maahn...

I really appreciate your perspective on this topic. I’m an aspiring designer myself and I’m still learning how to draw better. So, thank you for this! How long did it take you to feel confident about your drawings? Has drawing always been a strength for you?

I am a product manager, for some reason I have to get involved design, so I learned sketching idea & design using Procreate, then I pass to my subordinate in my team who has engineering background can realise my design at solid work, then I review the model at solid work ( I learned a bit on my own )…. ;)

hahahahaha you had me scared there for a while

my boss (I'm a student assisting in a small studio) wants me to sketch "quick and dirty" instead of fine and detailed :) which is actually not that easy. i used to draw objects for hours as a teen; spending much time on details & shadows etc; this is the complete opposite!

Hey Jimmy would like to know what happened with DesignLife are you going to continue with it new things are comming What can you tell us about?? Greetings from Mex. Love your work.

Jimmy, I teach ID at a middle school. It would really be helpful if there was some examples instead of just talking about it. Please give visuals. It is kind of like you talk about sketching abilities but then don't use sketching abilities to prove your point.

Hey Stephen! I agree, if I send you my video clip after shooting, could you help add in visuals for me? I have a full time job so don't have much time to add them in myself. Let me know.

@@JimmyHuynhdesign I guess if you are looking for teaching suggestions from a pedagogical standpoint I can look it over and provide suggestions. An overhead camera with you thinking aloud while you work out design issues would be great. In this way you could create an archive of B roll that you could plug in for future videos. If time is really an issue, we all have challenges with time but I think the effort you put in to improve the quality of content will translate into more views in furthering the industry. But it is always easier to just provide a talking head video.

@@StephenPortz thanks for the suggestion Stephen, I truly appreciate you taking your time to write that out. I agree with you, there's always room to improve. I think I've learned after recording b roll, storing it, cutting it up, and placing it in the right location for the appreciate video, is more than enough editing to make me not want to make any video at all. I'm perfectly happy making the videos with just me talking, and if that is not enough for the viewers, you don't have to watch my videos. There are plenty of other amazing KZreadrs who are doing what you're looking for. Check out Sam Does Design, Spencer Nugent, or Sangwon! They give really great demos.

I’ve never known a successful IDer who sucked at sketching.. I’ve known many who thought they could learn to sketch in college, then wasted tens of thousands just to realize they couldn’t make it in this field.

I've found that many designers "feel" like they need to improve their sketching no matter how good they actually are:)

No! Don’t waste your money on a masters. Get your portfolio looking good and be able to talk through it. Also be able to sketch well!
