I work as a full time graphic designer and Illustrator still intimidates me. Its always useful to watch other designers do their thing. I learned a lot of nifty tricks watching this. Thank you!
I'm also a FTGD and stepping up my Illustrator skills a couple years ago was a huge game changer. It was like opening the sandbox of design. I worked through the Adobe Illustrator books and supplemented with great youtube content like this. I also did the Daily Logo Challenge and it forced me to learn everything I wanted to make more quickly. G'luck!
I just started learning graphic design and I found you, YOU ARE JUST INCREDIBLE, I love these works and your videos, you inspire me to keep learning, because very often I feel like that I can't and I won't succeed, I won't be able to find clients and it's very difficult, but you make me believe in myself. I made this poster today and I liked it so much that I want to print it and attach it to my drawings. Thank you very much for your work❤️.
hi, i was hired make a poster by a company where this is not my job but now ive to do it just to let you know, u saved me!thank you, love you and thank you sm ❤😭 i was crying as we speak because deadline is like 12 hours
It's been a year since I started studying graphic design and I have to say you have the best Channel to chill and learn. Keep going and also love your Graphic design Vlogs ❤
It's criminal that you dont have more subs! You should do a video about fonts and how you find them, you have a great collection, and maybe you could share your go-to fonts, a list would be amazing.
ahh thank you so much!! I share a lot of reels about my fav fonts on instagram (@edgykatrina) and also made a video about fonts as tv characters - those have a lot of solid fonts that I use hahaha
this is really really inspiring, thank you for this! i love how you make it fun and how imperfections are part of your design. im always really harsh on my stuff and it takes all the joy out of it and makes me want to not do anything anymore. i love this approach because i also truly love the outcome. thank you for inpsiring!
I want to make my own band posters because I can’t find ones I like and I want the posters to go together aesthetically while still being true to the band. I find it so intimidating because it will be on my wall for everyone to see.
I totally get that🙌🏾 but i think anyone who'll see your work won't judge it badly because it has "you" all over it meaning it's unique. It's a wonderful thing that only you'd make what you hung on your wall. It's a way to connect with the people who see them. Maybe even a chance to talk about it and what inspired your choices. It's definitely a conversation starter. That's how I see it❤❤ I hope you create aloot of them
@@malanamarie5206 omg thank youuu🥹 I'm getting out of my comfort zone by speaking my mind and I'm in the process of starting a TH-cam channel just rambling my thoughts and your comment is the best validation I needed😅😅❤️❤️❤️Stay blessedd
I loved this video! So happy that you do vlogs and tutorials. Have a great day! ❤ would you ever consider doing a video on the business side of being a free lancer? Do you have an agent? How do you find clients? How do you manage your finances? Etc. you’ve really inspired me to consider pursuing freelance and it would be super helpful to hear about the more practical side of it. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this inspiring video Kat! I have a poster made in my backlog that I still haven't decided on printing out yet. I relate because when I was making it I was also thinking that not everything needs to be perfect, and not overthink it. Have a nice day and God bless.
good work i hope soon i will make design like you you're professional and i am beginner but you are my mentor in post design . i am yours permanent subscriber and thanks also thanks for that💗💗💓💓
hey, thank you so much for this incredibly helpful video, very cool poster too! i just wanted to ask why it is important for all the fonts to be outlined? i've printed some designs before knowing that i needed to this, now i'm a bit worried😅 thanks in advance!
printers usually don't have the font files you have so if you don't outline them they might show up as a default font when the printers open the file on their end!
What happens if you have a file without bleeding? I feel like a lot of art shops online just sell digital prints without it. Will it always have the white frame then? Somehow I just can't understand bleed, no matter how many times I read or watch something about it. (LOVE THE VIDEO, thanks so much :) )
I HAVE A THUMBNAIL idea. you should have your face in the bottom centre looking up at the 3 giant posters each cut up into 3 pieces and then you can have a gradiant background
Hi Katrina! New sub hehe. I'm self taught on Illustrator but I only use it for the line work/art and color it in Procreate because I want to save it in PNG with a 300 dpi. When I save it as PNG on illustrator as 300, it becomes 72. Does saving it in PDF print better or it doesn't matter at all?
printers prefer a PDF version! Not sure why it changes to 72 when you go to save it as 300 though :( I have printed things out in jpg/png format and haven't had too many issues though
