A maximalist intro for a mininininimalist logo
Couldn’t be more accurate

A maximalist intro for a mininininininininimalist logo
The webcam window vaguely looks like a castle window and I feel like I'm Romeo looking up at Juliet's window hearing her talk about minimal logos
You’re right and I’m only a few minutes in and now that’s going to be in my head for the whole video 😭
This has to be the best comment I've seen on elliot's videos
It’s funny how you can tell he’s into typography even when doing a minimalistic logo challenge
god i love type
@@welliot me 2 i loive type
This whole video is such a disaster. I felt uneasy throughout all of it. Loved it.
love this for me
can you eleaborate
This is so accurate.
thank you for designing minimally, no one else does that and it's so annoying. this channel is great!!
i am the first minimalist logo designer of all time ever
@@welliot ikr!!11 a year later, still noone is using this. most underrated design style ever i hope this takes over everywhere
I know it was a joke I promise I do…. But this was genuinely horrifying and pain inducing for me.
good to hear 🥰
can you elaborate
@@en2336 They turned out worse than what they were lol
It turned out, that in fact, this would not be Elliot's most popular video
Good to see the CEO and founder of Instagram back at it again at desining its logo. Something I absolutely imagine them doing for some reason.
Thank you I am the ceo and founder of Instagram
he is
I always knew he was the CEO of Instagram
@@Data-Expungededdon’t forget the founder
now you should redesign hyper-simple logos maximally (is that a word)
oml yesssssssssss
I understood what you said, so it can be a word if we want. Welcome to descriptivism
professional yapper
The instagram logo ended up genuinely looking great imo, even though every single one of these designs had more elements than their predecessors
I liked the version that looked like a surveillance camera, it was super accurate
Learning how to use illustrator for a job is like making the absolute sweared promise of going to dinner with your worst enemy every single day for hours a day because he is in charge of one of the only two restaurants on the planet and you have to kinda make your own food. Photoshop is the second and only second option to the Illustrator restaurant, where you don't have to participate in the food making but they don't serve water even if the manager is actually a lot more kind of a person, although he never remembers your name when you go.
this is so accurate lmao
Nahhh Illustrator is the best, objectively better than photoshop
You saved graphic design, emotionally speaking. You mixed design with comedy, it"s awesome. An the most important thing 'You are not your work'
as a person who has actually gone to design school, I can assure this is exacly the kind of logos we do in our assignments
10 mins in, I had to check what day this was released to see if this was some elaborate April Fool’s joke.
the instagram logo was actually super good i could totally see that being it
I think lot's of designers try to do video's more faster and dinamic, but you aren't rush and its makes me feel comfortable and be full connected to the process. Thank u
The fact that this is edited heightens the comedy to godhood.
I really could never get into social media that well, especially not when i think about how youre just. Staring into and talking to a lens and trying to give an authentic interaction with a piece of glass, and reviewing that footage who knows how many times for who knows how many hours- but you do an *exceptionally* good job at talking to yourself in an empty room !
In all seriousness youre very good at creating content and making it feel like some joshing around with an old friend from the other side of whatever screen your work ends up at.
The left half of your instagram logo looks like the silhouette of a picture of a person too! So you have your film camera motif as well as portraying that it’s still about the social aspects of the users.
as a passionate graphic designer who has also used photoshop since birth and is finally learning illustrator... this is very relatable and wonderful content Elliott thank you for the big laughs, LOL!!!
22:59 Oh man. You got me. I was about to comment.
Yo what the heck?!
You should totally redesign the iconic Twitter icon into a boring black X 🤘🏻 I think that would be much more memorable 🤓☝🏻
totally agree about instagrams logo font being weird. i like the logo you did for yourself
The homoerotic tension between Elliot and Elliot 🫢👀🥵☕️
I actually absolutely love the Instagram redesign.
4:46 long intro, a new world record
I’d argue it was even longer… I’m going for the world record
Elliot forever pushing the boundaries of what a TH-cam intro should be. A mind too powerful.
my design teacher absolutely broke my spirit and destroyed my sense of confidence and self worth but the universe decided to bless me by recommending me your channel :) i really needed to hear the “you are not your work” line. thank you
There is another distant phase when you pick up using layers in illustror again and find it very useful 😀
the instagram one goes so hard it looks like a film reel, a selfie, and a camera
Learning illustrator is hard!
I started on Photoshop too, but finding now that Illustrator is so much more versatile.
Also, I'm literally watching you in the background as I work on client work haha
Much love and keep up the awesome work! x
I love your Instagram design. I like the font you chose more than the one Insta uses irl. Great video!
**installs Adobe Illustrator because Elliot said to** Does this make me a designer now? Who knows. In other news..Hey Elliot? Fresh minimalist logo.
you should've made the A in apple an apple core, I really love the tech company oppre
I want a collab with Zimri to see what he would change to these logos!
Seconded
I want Zimri back at design.
Unironically I like the Instagram logo you came up with, it looks like a person holding a big film camera on their shoulder, a person being inside a camera and a person in a photo with an arrow pointing at them all at once. I really think the idea of recording things and/or being the main focus of your own profile comes across well. And as a bonus the person kinda looks like a lowercase "i". It could use a few tweaks to look better (mainly I'd make the triangle and the person smaller and have the edges be slightly less rounded) but the concept is genuinely pretty good
32:00 sorry elliot it turned into among us ❤️
hahaha
It never goes away does it
Kindly, The apple one made me wanna scream
love the animal crossing music in the background of the intro :0)
hehe me too :)
If only I had thought of monetizing my awkward experience of learning Adobe over time and make everyone join along.. instead now I know these programs and don’t make money off it all 😂😂😂 A+++
these really are some catastrophic designs. keep it up
blue light filter glasses were so relatable. People always ask me how i see without my glasses on (when i remember to take them out after i use any device) and im like oh i do see clearly i just want to keep having good sight and i want to look cool so yeah
You need to read Paula Scher's book Make it Bigger, you will feel good for not overthinking design and just wanting to create things that look good!
The Steve Brule of Graphic Design
This is so good I don’t know how you design, talk as you go and make it funny! Also where is the puppy rug from I’m obsessed!!!
It's the "OKay" for me 💚
it's almost like... minimalism... can be... funny... thx elliot
i started this video went downstairs brought my laundry in and got a drink and the intro was still on.never change elliot
gotta say i was really questioning where IG was headed but i really love the final product
No way bro went YAPPING FOR 11 MINUTES
wow this is very unique and does not look fonty at all bravo ceo of minimalism❤️😩
4:47 “let the transformation take place!” *rolls an ad for a movie about a trans kid*
Well played, TH-cam. Well played.
Incredible video! i like your designs does your print store ship to Australia?
wow thank you! and yes i sure do!
Jokes on you, this is the second time I’ve seen one of your videos. Contemplating a channel binge but unsure if I have the time
Intro was fun, idk why some people complained about it. (You’re heavily underrated btw)
You should make chat GPT your client and try to desing something according to his demands
you are so funny Elliot! Keep it up you inspire me!
That was so beautiful 😭
I can’t 😂 Your humor is somethin 😂😂 “You don’t wanna know the real me” 👓
I love your subtle winks to the camera
That instagram logo went from looking absolutely horrendous, to actually pretty good in the span of like the 30 seconds.
Wow the instagram logo 😳😳😳???? So cool!!! Looks perfect
i really like the instagram one, good job! 👌
I’m so happy you make videos
43:52 Why is this so accurate?! Im listening to this whilst I design right now lmao. Perfect white noise to listen to whilst I work.
i love the green opple design
Hey elliot, nice haircut!
a true fan
Im subscribing to your pateron for sure, long live raw journalism
THE GLASSES AREN'T REAL!!??
Xaxaxa very inspiring! Thanks 4 the video)
this video is pure !magic lemme tell you
very cute never disappoints
Yes, you were right. I am seeing you for the first time. One thing i can say for sure is that you do look like an Elliot.
I love how chaotic is this video
This is the best example of committing to the bit I have ever seen
Elliot: "We create so that you can do your client work with a bit of white noise, the soothing sound of my voice as a bit of white noise for you, as you design your life away"
Me: literally watching his video while I design my architecture thesis project
ah yes i love the company known as Opple
Love the Instagram one, but maybe it would be better if the camera shape was flipped so the lens would be a play button
I kept reading the Apple one as Opple
you can slowly see elliot losing his mind at several instances. can't tell if it's the insta hat or the "less is more" mindset
Man this is great
The outline of a pear would work much better as the A in apple
dude this video got recommended to me like crazy, what have you done to the algorithm?
*41:34* I believe your sense of humor is not that much different from mine
In all honesty, I don't know anything about graphic design, but the apple logo you make makes my eyes happy
I love the instagram redo 🔥
the instagram logo is actually 🔥🔥🔥
and that little person is also an "i"
this is the elliot of all time
hiii idk if someone already suggested the idea, i read the first comment and im already slightly freaking out but maybe like super maximalist logos!!! ik you said you arent a logo designer but i love your style and your personality so i think it would be funny (sorry for long comment, llts of love tho :) )
i give this video an A++ !!!!!!! GOOD GOOD GOOD 🥛
WOWOWOW!!
I must say that the instagram logo looks like an actual "Fixed" logo that you would find in public.
MORE VIDS LIKE THIS PLZ FANKYOUUUUU
where can i find a dog like the one in the background??
king WHAT are you talking about
32:15 the guy could’ve been the I for instagram, I feel like you could’ve made the I lowercase on the words to match the person
thank you, you've inspired me so much i became a line
You could just say your apple logo was oppo all along and the apple and the leaf shows growth
banger video (elliot you owe me an a++)
As soon as I saw that rectangle in the image traced eye, I wanted you to add a little lines to the rectangle and make it a window ;-; like in the phrase the eyes are the windows to the soul
uhm two years later watching this vid and youtube kinda proved you wrong elliot..
Could you have taken the line of your eye to be the to little horizontal line on the T?
