    He made it look easy. Can't imagine the amount of thought process that went behind each of the creation. His MAD experience though gave a very nice glimpse to the real deal.

    He has such an approachable energy about him, he has a very unique way of solving design problems but he makes it seem like it's no big deal at the same time haha

    I like how he introduced himself. 1:02 I'm a graphic designer. There are no jargons like design thinker, creative design strategist etc. So down to earth person and a true designer.

    No matter how much you know, there is always something to learn from design and it's beautiful to see how it affects the world in so many different ways. lovely presentation

    Michael Bierut is such an entertainer when it comes to speaking about design. :D

  • @RealmsOfThePossible
    @RealmsOfThePossible 7 ปีที่แล้ว +44

    What an inspirational speaker he is. I love how he views design as not just creating and producing a product for a client but a whole problem solving process and that last bit with the schools on how sometimes design can go further and effect individuals deeply.

    I love the MAD logo. I still remember my Design Lecturer always told me, "ideas are everywhere. You just need to get out of class." Great video!

    I started doing typography and logo design with my dad when I was 12. I prepared the lettering and he painted them on buses, trucks and billboards. This was before computer design and printers... A lot of work and a lot of fun..

    I just randomly stumbled across this video whilst binging futur vids, and the part where he said about the design process is interesting caught my interest. I have been creating logo design process videos on this channel since January and I have also noticed viewers find the design process very interesting so it was interesting to hear an authority in the design world confirm this.

  • @BroKEnCaPSLoCk1

One thing I want to point out at the end he says "one of those kids maybe one day god willing if they hit the jackpot they'll be on this stage" nobody who hits the jackpot will be on that stage. you worked your ass off to get on that stage. if I won the jackpot ide be on an island getting drunk lol

    It’s easy to be an architect or interior designer, when there are no monetary limits. As long as they believe in you.
    A big part of design, is not having constraints on the monetary aspect of it all.

Using type like that give you about as much respect for it as you would give a bag of crisps, because I've seen type and terminology used that way on bags of crisps. Failed
