Wow i have to pay and i have no money
Am from Ethiopia and your contents have guided me through an amazing design journey. still learning and still growing much love and gratitude for the value you add to every viewer
It's was a one of the nicest video'sof your 💜💜💜I have ever came across to. 👍🏻 Thank you for now buddy ! For this video 👍🏻
thank you
I'm the kind of graphic designer who watches Satori's videos and learns :)
100% happy to hear that :))
@@SatoriGraphics If anyone asks me about my education credentials I'll tell them I graduated from the Satori TH-cam channel of Graphic Design. Seriously dude, you we awesome. Thank you.
I'm a lawyer who is asked to do graphic works for a political party because they think my graphic works I made for fun, looks good. And I keep watching this channel because I'm not trained in graphic design and the more I did, the more I think I need to learn properly.
Same
I studied art, art history, and learned to draw from a very young age (ten). All self-taught. I simply fell in love with that world and would immerse myself in it whenever I could. That and anatomy.
When the decision came to what I wanted to do in life, I choose to go into finance. Oddly. While I never let go of my creative side, I was taught that art would be very hard to pay the bills.
I have no regrets. I have had a very successful career and amassed a wealth of business knowledge. Several years ago, I began to draw again. Deeply getting into it. I began to see the world again like I did when I was ten. Full of wonder. My focus turned to graphic design. As then, I immersed myself in all things design by studying the masters: Paul Rand, Chris Do, Paula Scher. I read everything I could. And then I found Satori Graphics, Yes, I am a designer, Aaron Drapelin. and more.
So, at the age of 51, I started my own Brand Strategy + Design business. I still hold my day job until it becomes self-sustainable but eventually I will turn full time. I have already worked with clients and the word of mouth is beginning to grow. I am sought out by many who have heard of me. I certainly have more work to do but it's exciting.
Also, thanks to my business career, I am a better designer for it. When I do Brand strategy, I am in tune with my clients' needs.
So what kind of designer am I? One that will never stop learning.
wow... i need this
Thank you for sharing, this means a lot to me.
Satori : bring a cup of tea and enjoy today’s podcast , me in the bus sweating and listening to it
I'm a beginner Graphic designer, a makeup artist and a science student. So you can imagine the amount of confusion I'm having to choose my field and how. I'm a student and also want to earn a bit but it's just hard. I've tried some freelance websites but theres alot of competition n toxicity that is out of my bubble...your videos have been really helpful with all the knowledge and importance of a graphic designer!❤
you are not alone
If there's only one video you have to watch on Design this is it! Respect Satori.
Thanks a lot David!
Thanks for your knowledge and experience, I really appreciate it and learn a lot with each video of yours
Motivation bomb I needed today. Thank you ♥
I would like to see more of these sort of videos. Love it!
Thank you really needed this. A change on mindset on my work. Going to take my time to learn my craft and not be hard on myself.
I'm a long time subscriber of yours since way back when, I was always finding new ways to add to my designs and just experimenting with what I can do or what I should have done. But I always look forward to your videos when I see them in my sub box. Always keep up the great work!
Just saw your first video on the channel... yeah, great progress with the editing :))
Keep up the work, need this type of content.
You should do more such podcasts Tom, excellent advice right there, and yes totally make a Discord.
I was expecting something like, type 1, type 2, type 3 designer with descriptions, but this was pleasantly better although a bit more serious 😇 Keep up the great work! 🔥
thank u for ur advice in this vid :3 helps me a lot in improving my mood right now and trying to evaluate myself better!
I love this as a currently self taught graphic designer trying to start a business I loved this
Talking about looking at yourself and your work in third person, you’ve put into words what I came to a few months ago! I forget to implement it though. Thanks for the great reminder ❤️ it’s very easy to focus on two skewed bricks when self criticizing
It is very easy to do that, and we all do it a lot of the time
Apart from Graphics design, your perception of things/life intrigues me.
that's cool to hear, thanks
Satori...thank you. Just thank you. ♥️
This is just awesome content and the most sage advice I've heard after 5+ years in the industry. I wish I discovered you earlier. Love and light to you man, thanks a lot.
I appreciate that :)
You put all my thinking in video, though more thoughtful and informative. I'm starting my design business and trying to get it perfect, but you realize that time is ticking away while you poking around in your website design. So I take your advice to better see my process objectively and who I really am as a designer. Thanks :)
I frequently follow your videos for inspiration 👌
That's awesome and all the best with your business. Remember a lot of the success of a business comes from planning and marketing
It’s always good to strip things back to basics, look at facts and make adjustments. It also makes you realise simple things that can make a huge difference.
I like creating skate/surf style art, but I don’t do enough of that. Maybe I should and maybe I should target that area when it comes to work.
That’s what I discovered from watching this vid.
Cheers Satori!
If that is your passion and a skillset then go for it. Make sure to study the market first and see where you can come in and make a profit.
I used to skate from around 2001 until 2008. I would love to get back into it
This video addressed so many things for me. It's like you became my therapist for a brief 17.24 minutes. I had a similar experience with your sister, only I ended up changing fields 3 times for a variety of reasons. It's hard to be honest with oneself when there are so many external forces trying to shape us into something else. Even though I'm an innately creative type, it took a lot of exploration, mistakes, and in the end, luck, for me to get into graphic design as a day job. I appreciate that you took the time to make this.
I'm happy that is resonated with you. I think many of us take a while to find the path that we are best suited for. Often life is about the journey rather than getting to the final destination.
wow, this video made a move in me, far more than graphics topic itself. Thank you very much.
Thanks for the feedback Stefano 👍
Being 33 and starting my freelancing journey about graphic design as I believe i have found that this my passion and do other things i love. I've been a CSR, virtual assistant and so on but nothing compares to doing what you love. I am pushing my portfolio. Always exposing myself with people like you to empower myself with knowledge and skills. It is a competitive industry but I keep on believing that I will make it. Thanks to content creators like you.
Just to let you know, I started crying throughout the video lol. Rough week. You made me feel so much better though. Thank you, seriously. Keep posting! 👍
Hey nothing is permanent and a rough week now will be a memory of something you overcame later down the line ✌
I love your videos
Sir this video changed my life, my career and my whole personality so so much thanks for this
Im doing what you said for years
Told myself to keep grinding designs and keep creative..etc
it always works, although im in the self destruct mode this week
And my only regret is not finding your channel sooner, thanks to your advise my designs improved a lot.
If you are hitting a creative block then maybe have a day off if possible and rethink your work process. We all get brunt out now and again.
All the best and keep going 💪
@@SatoriGraphics thanks man, im still trying not to fall again into self destruct mode..
With the help of my loves one and everyone around me, and thanks to your videos it boost me up alot and giving something different everytime.
I like this type of content.Keep doing!
I will be sure to try and make one every 2 weeks or something like that
@@SatoriGraphics thanks, I am The one who need professional advice this days.this type of content get like angel.
This is my first time commenting on anything on TH-cam...I am a Graphic Designer and I have been in those situations too...Great advice too, Thanks
Welcome aboard and thanks for the feedback
It's intriguing, I'm passing by all that worrying and anxiety about choosing a career path. First of all, I intended to be a doctor, but I've realized something new during the pandemic, and all this crazy stuff. I've decided to try coding, and I liked it, as I'm improving my code skills (web development) I will be nearby looking for great tips that can, maybe, make me realize what I wanted to do. Great video, thank you very much.
Thank you :)
Love the ending song
I listen this while closing my eyes. Thankyou for exist in this industry (graphic designer) . Satori 👍
Hope you learned something and slept well :)
As a photographer first and a graphic designer second myself there is nothing called "the perfect shot or design". we only gain experiences throughout the years and try to improve our work for the next project and learn from our past mistakes. it's just progress like you've said in the video. and at the end of the day, we shouldn't feel bad about our previous works cuz that only leads to a negative path. also when you are feeling a bit down just take a break and change your location preferably somewhere in nature with fresh air far from crowded places.
Every time I watch your video and feel I achieved one step ahead
Thanks 😊
You're welcome!
💯 Valuable lessons for me. Thank you Sir 🙏 🐢🍱🍱
Glad to hear it
Satori making videos I can relate to these days... Psychic 😬
Happy to hear that Daniel lol
You're amazing!
I'm not too sure about that, but I try lol
@@SatoriGraphics I learn from you a lot as a graphic designer + your voice and energy is soothing. Being self-employed means I mostly work alone and therefor discuss my design (and business) ideas and processes with myself lol so hearing others thoughts on the matter and seeing their experience is helpful. :)
You present things in a clear and logical manner in my opinion.
I wad hoping contest but the video is good and the idea of a discord server is pretty good
Friday will be the challenge 👍
Like, thanks so for your advice
always happy to help bro
@@SatoriGraphics Being a self-taught beginner in the world of graphic design,
I learned a lot in just 2 days that I discovered your TH-cam channel.
My only regret is that I didn't see it sooner; but nothing is ever too late !!
Thank you sincerely for what you are doing, you are a real blessing for us who are just starting out and who have no means to afford quality training.
A Passionate from Africa
Man im about to make a playlist with all his good videos
Thanks and hope it helps you out!
perfect video
Thanks a lot
I am curious to see tips from you on how to negotiate with clients or how to handle client objections to the price we ask
Here before 1k views. I have the "why" of being a Graphic Designer sorted, I'm undecided on the "what" because I don't feel like I can afford to be selective, but the "who" is something I definitely need to work. Thanks for this!
It's good to have more than one skillset within the design world these days. try looking at what your skills are and if they align with a passion
Great video! In czech republic graphic designer's salary is smaller than warehouseman 😩
Try to find clients abroad I guess
@@diogenesbarrel7350 Yeah I am trying but there si big amount of competition among of the market.
Brother make a video on best websites to share your graphics artwork
Discord is a very good idea :)
I need to work out the logistics of it
@@SatoriGraphics I completely understand. Luckily it is an intuitive application, you'll see :)
When i started following you your second before and after video was uploaded sone days ago and your content is evolving day by day
I appreciate that, thanks for the feedback
So im graphic design student i watch your videos to help me improve where i can,, lately I've been thinking I'm in too deep but also that im not good enough and the people around me aren't helpful started thinking about quitting and changing courses even though idk what to choose, the worst part is I'm at a point where I'm not sure if its for me, but at the same time i love it, another thing is the social aspect of it im pretty shy person. Even though i am working im not working as much as i should
Cool Hair Cut
Lol :)
Α graphic design with passion for my job and for design for the needs and social issues matter
I like the sound of that
"im tom satori, and i've got my cup of tea."
-what an absolute legend.
Me, working as a designer earning 250 USD(in BRL) worth as wage thinking on quit this line of work because of mental stress and day-to-day bs requirements, listening to Satori say 'Some can earn as much or higher than a doctor' in pure disbelief.
i’m thinking of this career but i’m scared of the paid can u give me any advice
@@Ana-pj1gf Você tem de entrar primeiro porque gosta, pq se entrar pensando em dinheiro, realmente vai se frustrar, ninguém começa ganhando bem mas não é que você vai morrer de fome e nunca arrumar emprego, emprego tem, o problema é achar um lugar que valoriza o profissional, sabe?
I am the kind of Graphic designer who has benefited a lot from you!
and that makes me satisfied with this channel and my videos, thanks!
Dope
thanks!
Emotional reaction or harshness can also be linked to perfectionist traits. While it is okay to have high standards, striving for perfection instead of completion can really demotivate you and worsen how you think.
i really missed the animations in this video
Nice
cheers
I am new to this field and I haven't been able to find someone as great as this man. Can anyone please suggest some TH-cam channels that teach graphic design?
Futur
Yo can you advice me what are the steps to be a Graphic Designer?. What are the 1st thing to learn and so on etc.
Hey there , I'm confused between graphic designing and E_commerce which one i should choose , is there any advices for me ?? Thanks for helping
Peace✌️
👍👌😎
the creative writer and also photographer or illustrator one
What kind of graphic designer are you? Me: I'm a law student, designer enthusiastic
you know usually when u start going to the gym around the first 1 or 2 months u dont seem to see any changes, but after the 3rd month u can actually see some slight differences in the body? (this is going to the gym 4 times a week)
im a new designer and im going to be working almost everyday on various programs and software how long do you think it will take for me to get even a simple grip of what im doing ?
I am 30, broke up my enginering 3 years ago, and now, with 30 starting studying design. :/
All the best for your new endeavour 👍
@@SatoriGraphics tbh I'm questioning myself "am I a bit late?" I mean, i missed the chance to try things out in my 20's ( in design stuff), find my style or "niche" strengths and weaknesses. Would you say it is a loss or is it always about trying out things?
One who does all of this for fun :)
Peace
✌
Satori: Learn what type of a designer you are.
Me (crying): I am so, so bad
if you are 33yo now, when did u start learning graphic design!
When I was 17
Is Adobe illustrator enough to be a graphic designer?
It depends what you are doing. Ai is a vector based program, but a designer might also need to use Photoshop for certain projects or tasks, or InDesign for designing and printing a brochure or magazine.
i like making logos and icons
I am 33 too 😊❤️
1:55 this is freaking me out
Hello!!!

Oh! I know I know! I'm the type that doesn't know what she's doing!!
It's hard to know yourself

Great content. Not sure what people's faces have to do with the video. There isn't any connection between the two.
Bangladesh Love

Graphic design or medicine? I like both. Please help me.
🇧🇷👌
We are here, together, one more time, men culture. Every place I go i find Brazilians 🤣
I'm the kind that loves to spread awareness and construction. Therefore I enjoy doing awareness and isometric design. I realised that I am an empath and I know how to design something that would move people. When I play The Sims, I know I can build buildings with presets. With the isometric design knowledge I've learnt, I can be more flexible and build buildings of my own creativity, creating a new world with just isometric. It just feels happy to see a world I've just created. I know my weaknesses and I always try to find a way to improve them with tons of practice and guidance.
That's neat! There are some cool Instagram accounts that have isometric 3D work, such as LowPolyMoly, I'm sure you will like the stuff over there
