    i study industrial product design..in college, mostly we design a daily product to be more reliable than they are, in functionality, aesthetic, materials, to be used, 2d and 3d rendering and so much more.

    I found your channel on my own when I was really starting to think about what career path I want to take, so it was cool when my high school engineering teacher had us watch one of your videos for class. I'm still in high school, but I'm seriously considering industrial design. Your videos have been a big help, thanks.

    This would've been of utility when i was looking for a career, and for many people as well. I knew what industrial design was before college and was hooked, but a lot of people never come around it until they're in their first or second year of an engineering or some unrelated stuff, and that is a huge problem. That a lot of people don't get to know what an ID does, and try to achieve that (i want to do this product, or that product, or to be on this or that, etc) in other fields.
    This is amazing, as a colleague i'd like to share it but in spanish.

    Bro, I like being creative and designing stuff but the thing is: I always think about the environmental impact that goes with mass production and materialistic consumer society. Can you tell me how Industrial Design is more than that? Because I sometimes tend to think there's no real need for new physical user products because most a man needs is already designed, right? Also, how does Industrial Design relate to and what role does it play in the major issues such as climate change, overpopulation, scarcity of resources etc?

    • @chewek9534
      @chewek9534 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      A bit late here, but you could also look into zero waste brands for package/product inspiration! Blueland is an example of zero waste cleaning supplies, but I've also seen products like minimal waste food packaging. An another alternative you could explore is how to use already existing materials that aren't biodegradable to create existing products in cleaner ways. I think a wonderful aspect of design is creating things within limitations, such as function over aesthetic. With other industries like cars and even interior design shifting towards more natural trends, there's plenty of opportunity to combine sustainable practices with industrial design. In a way you can 'recycle' design to combat issues of climate change and scarcity of resources.

    The general idea of what an industrial designer does appeals for me, perhaps more than any other field, but I shy away from it for one major reason: I can’t draw. It makes me question if I’ve got the creativity required for it. What do you think, is sketching truly an intrinsic part of the field?

  • @thedarkside3899
    @thedarkside3899 ปีที่แล้ว

    Tbh i work at a not really big company so besides my normal design job i also have to do all the CAD (making technical drawings for the products and the molds needed). So while you are right that there are many disciplines out there companies will also appreciate someone who can fill multiple roles at the same time.

  • @AranelEruvyreth
    @AranelEruvyreth 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I'm a Mechanical Engineer but I've never been good with the numbers/technical aspect of things. I've always preferred the design aspect. I wanted to work for a year after getting my Bachelor's Degree to see if I wanted to stick with engineering or move into Industrial Design (or a totally unrelated field like landscape architecture or clinical psychology) before I committed to a Masters program. I am now convinced that engineering is not a good fit for me; I am definitely more creative than technical and the math and science while interesting from a distance, is a big struggle for me. Really, what got me interested in engineering in the first place is just the fact that I like to design things and, because both my parents are engineers, I guess I felt more pushed into engineering, but I think that was a mistake.
    This video was very helpful and I plan to watch more of your videos as well. I think at this point career shifting is the right choice for me, I just need to see if Industrial Design would be a good match, or if I should look more into my other two fields of interest. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills!

But anyways this course is sounding very appealing tbh because it seems to be a good balance, tho I cant tell if itll be mathsy/sciencey enough for me 😬

      Thank you so much for commenting Terrell. Honestly, start saving up as much as you can so you dont have to work as much while going to school. A lot of my success in school came from dedicating all my time to my classes without needed to worry about money or family responsibilities. Most of my time outside of class was spent on homework and projects. Spend as much time as you can to make them perfect. Also, go on behance every day for at least an hour and analyze your favorite projects. See the things they did that you really like. Then replicate it with your own perspective. Good luck, keep me updated!

Case in point, many people at my school dropped the program because they didnt exactly know what ID is, they didn't know the school has a portfolio review, or is a 4 year program. Common sht you should know, and a 10 second google search answers for you.
    I've also seen people who are adamant on being designers, but even after a year of drawing, they still can't cut the mustard. Kudos to them for pushing on...But if you can't draw a few straight lines on the nose months after practicing, the artistic/creative field likely isn't for you.

Go through a simple step by step process. I dunno if I'd worry about time. But it would be great to see some CAD videos geared specifically towards ID. Maybe go from a sketch to a cad model and keyshot render and go through that whole process, from your sketch, then a tutorial on how to make the cad model..30 minutes, 40 minutes, doesn't matter. I wouldn't do a drawing tutorial, plenty of that, and you're going to be asked silly questions like "what pen u use" (like that matters)..Pretty much have a sketch, and show viewers how you make that in cad..

    I was an industrial designer for 50 years. Started out in automotive design and finished as a independent consultant. I worked in high tech and lived all over the world. Singapore, Japan, and England. My vocation took me places I never thought I would go. Additionally, I received 2 masters degrees in Trans Design and New Media at the University of Michigan and Art Center College of Design respectively, paid for by my employers.
    However, what I see on the horizon for the field is bleak. While at Art Center, most of the students were Asian. And now many of them have returned to their home countries to practice their craft, designing products for our market......why.....because the industry is there......not here. Unless we change from a financially driven / consumer driven economy to a production / invention / manufacturing economy....I don't see much demand for the designers being pumped out of the schools. I have a friend who owns a major design firm in Atlanta and he now only has 1 industrial designer on staff....most their contract work is UI / UX and research.
    So, I lived my dream and had a successful career.....I hope it continues because the talent out there is impressive. Thanks for your channel....it's helping a lot of people.
