Hi, there. This just came up while scrolling, and I just had to comment. what you are saying here is such a great message that everyone should hear! I wish we had Internet to hear it back then when I was young. Keep on spreading your wonderful message. (^^)
Man thank you so much!! I appreciate this message and thank you for watching fam! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

LMAOOOOO lurking mfs like “It Follows” 😭😭😭😭
Video extremely GOOD. .Such an educational talk, Love how you emphasized exploring different styles , studing your role models, giving yourself a break , seeking feedback.....lots lots ,🔥🙌
Thank you so much!! I’m glad you enjoyed it bro 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I dont use Instagram and that stuff but I do know that people that do use it need to hear this
Man that’s rare not using Instagram, you ahead of most people bro. Salute! 🫡
Would you say that 3 weeks is a good average for projects in general? Pinterest is what I use for my mood boards.
It honestly depends on a few factors, the communication with clients, the work load & the payment. I find that shorter projects seem to take the longest because of one of those 3 unfortunately. But in a perfect world I would say basic projects should take 2-3 weeks for sure. Longer projects 4-5 weeks
@@DURRELL.RASHAD thank you for that. It’s nice to have an idea of what to expect. 🙏
@@JonnyChimpoNWS got you bro! Are you starting work with clients or is this for a school project?
🙌 I needed to hear this today. I always appreciate your content and videos.
Man thank you for supporting the channel so much. That’s love! 🤞🏾
This is so real. Kids, listen to this man’s advice and weigh it into your decision.
Thank you bro! I appreciate your comment 🤞🏾
Another possible vector of protecting and identifying your work could be to embed metadata into the image file. Obviously it would also be better to be doing the sort of things you mentioned in your video but, barring anything else, embedding identifying metadata into the graphic file could help to prove ownership after the fact. Just a thought.
That’s a great addition, I didnt think about that when I made the video. If I do a PT2 I’ll add this and give you a S/O! 🔥🔥
@@DURRELL.RASHAD 👍
Thank you for the insights boss.
Always brother, thank you for watching 🫡
@@DURRELL.RASHAD I stumbled upon your content on here by wondering if becoming a graphic designer in the age of AI was still worth it. I really like your "tell it like it is" approach to GD. You even had the b@lls to admit you freeloaded adobes stuff in your formative years like many of us ahah. Instant like and subscribe right there!
hahah bro whats crazy is my thirsty ahh was downloading torrents and stuff on my college's internet, i had no idea what a VPN was or anything. LOL i was lucky i didnt get in trouble behind it lol raw dogging the college internet is crazy in hindsight lmaoooo
Thanks for this. I have seen people in my life after knowing my goals, they worked hard to pull me down😢. Yes i fell but after talking to my self, i stoodup again in power i can say i cut them off in my life . I love my life now people think am showing off but am an easy girl bit most people use our simplicity for studity so its ok to block ,delete and cut them off for you peace ✌️. Thanks for this 🎉God bless you bro. Love from Uganda
I love reading this!!!! I’m glad you stood back up, you deserve all the success in the world sis! Don’t let them hold you back, keep going!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Appreciated bro👍
Always love, thank you for watching bro!
This video is very underrated, and unfortunately relatable to many. out of my few friends, one of them have negative traits and perception of choosing friends, and I chose that I will not hang out or play with him anymore because he just doesn't have any positive hobbies or things to do, unless he gets better some way. I recommended him to seek treatment, but he kept denying thinking that he's okay regardless. Anyway, it's a really great video. Keep it up ❤
I’m glad you’re putting yourself first!!! You did right by recommending him to seek treatment it’s his choice from there on what to do. One of the hardest things I’ve had to learn was you can’t save someone from themselves. I used to try but it always backfired on me. It’s never worth it after that lol
Wow amazing tips thanks ❤
My gosh can I relate!! The past two years I’ve been going through what I like to call a “transformation.” I’ve been healing trauma, now I really like myself. Since all my changes all my friends who knew me prior to the transition have fallen to the waist side. My final relationship is a friend of 15 years, she gossips, is insecure, never celebrates my wins, and if I do have success she will struggle to say “that’s great.” She has been copying me lately which is creepy, I have decided to distance myself completely from her. She is the final friend who had to “go.” I now have no friends, however all those friends represented the “old me,” thus making room for healthy friends to represent the new me. Thanks for sharing ❤
Wow this was beautiful!!! thank you for sharing, and you're right! The old you, not the new you or the you that represents where youre heading. I always believed that when i closed the doors on friendships & relationships it just means that i'm choosing myself & i'm choosing something that suites me better in the future. Being around envious friends, jealous friends or family... etc is dangerouns and im glad you're choosing you over the BS!! Much love to that & cheers to new beginnings! Thank you for watching & sharing!

Keith Lee needs to see this!
On god! Tag him 10x when it drop on TikTok tomorrow! 🔥🔥🔥😂😂😂
I like the way you arranged the pictures in the background. Really made his photo int the foreground stand out especially when you added his outline. Great job…. I’d buy the shirt once he accepts lol
Hey i would like to get some advice. Im 19 about to turn 20 this year. Im currently in pre university and im at a cross roads. I really love illustration, drawing and designing, its something ive always been drawn to, and i dont think i could see myself in any other field. Im thinking about going to university for graphic design, mostly because i would like to learn graphic design in a more structured and formal environment, rather than being self tought, but im not sure if i should because as you said in the video that it does not really require a degree to be in the industry. I guess my question is , would it be a smart move to go to design school or should i not. Also do you think that ai will replace the role of a graphic designer, because thats something im worrying about too.
Yo thank you for watching & this is an awesome question! I can’t answer that for you, but I can say. You should do what works best for you, me personally I went to a community college and was introduced to graphic design there. I never knew about it before that, I quickly realized that for me I was better off self taught. But being self taught without courses (back then) came with pros & cons. (I might make a video on this). One pro was I learned at my own pace, a con was that I missed out on some technical aspects of designs that I had to learn later. My brain has always done its own thing so being self taught worked better for me, but I know plenty of designers that went to college and THRIVED in structured environments. It just didn’t work for me, but it has A TON of benefits.
Also, I’m making a video on this as well, but I wouldn’t worry too much about AI in the future. I think that every designer should learn AI & use aspects of it to make themselves more valuable but it won’t/can’t replace us because the human experience & need for connection gets in the way of that. So just work on your skills and keep getting better so that you can’t be replaced!
Thank gou so much for responding man, i really appreciate it .
@@MelbourneAllen-f9x No doubt bro! thank you again for watching!!
You got new followers 😂😂😂 thanks you so much I really have big passion on graphic design I wish be graphic on my career 🎉😊😊
Thank you for subscribing! Looking forward to learning & hearing more about your graphic design journey!!
8 years no money is crazyyyyyyyy
Lmaooo nah looking back it definitely was but the internet was not the same as it is now lol so I give myself grace LOL thanks for watching bro
I feel like I got a lot out of this video. Thank you for sharing your experience. Also, next time take the jacket as payment. 😂
Haha i might have too next time I work with him bro 😂😂 it’s prolly not worth much anymore, that dude wears the jacket 3x a week LOL
I thought I wanted to focus on marketing but I find myself gravitating to Illustration.
Hell yeah man! That’s how I started with illustration (before I knew what it was)
Those are some hard facts. As I start my graphic design journey, I do my best to do some research prior to starting a new piece.
Yessir! That’s the best route, that way you come up with fresh ideas! Thanks for watching bro!
can i submit my portfolio on your site for feed back?
what up bro! Yes eventually you will be able to, right now im rebranding my business so my website is shut down but it'll be back up & i'll make an announcement when its done!
what do you think of fiver upwork
I think they’re great for beginners and people looking to make quick money. But not great for building a career on. I think there’s betters ways & easier ways to make money, plus your time is more valuable than what they currently are paying.
