This is truly a coincidence!!!! I was literally designing a mock Cafe brand for my portfolio and Abi posts this video 😮😮🎉🎉🎉🎉 I hv got so much more to uncover, putting my detective 🕵️♀️ hat on!!
Your channel is what I wished my professors in multimedia had taught us instead of generalized lectures alone. I got to learn while practice which helped me a lot to improve my designing skills after graduation and on my freetime. Thank you so much, Abi! ❤
I really do love how it turned out 🌹🥺🔥🔥 Sometimes, I wish it is possible to skip the initial stage of learning, and just get into the fun part of designing strong IDs 😅 Thank you for this Abi 🎉🎉
Thank you so much!! You are really a lifesaver in my darkest time on graphic where i was so clueless & at lost of systematic process when designing. I am really thankful to your contents because now, i have seen significant changes on how i plan out my design compared to when i do it as a hobby. lots of love here.
This girl is amazing!! You really help me with remembering and applying certain concepts through my design process. PS. I got the client questionnaire and it's a life saver ♥
Oh Abi your video continue to inspire and fuel my excitement into developing myself as a Designer! Thank you so much for this video, I could not stop smiling at all! :)
Absolute gem of a video, I loved the illustrations of the castle and coffee cup created at 12:00. Could you please create a video on how you create illustrations
Loooved this! The brand design from scratch videos are by far my fav videos of yours! Would love to see more❤ only missed the first class brand reveal video in the end
A nice and detailed video.. Loved the concept of Castle as the brandmark. And a lot to learn from the statement - 'If it's your initial idea, chances are it's everyone else's too.' Thank you Abi for this amazing video..✌🏼🤗
Hi Abi! I love your attitude towards design, it`s like a game and it`s still professional! I`m making my course brand design project on your brand and i`m inspecting you in such way!
When I’m giving a brief in class to create designs for a made up company, I instantly think of your content. Your advice has really helped me develop my skills. 🤗
love the twead hat and mustache abi. 😅 now it makes sense why you had that in your instagram story hehe. also, love the customization font. looks alot better than the original. keep more of these videos coming. ❤
do you think we should work on CMYK color mode from the start? Because the branding always need printing on a certain paper. I'm struggle every time I choose the color brand, as you know, some bright colors can not be printed. I used to do a project that the chosen bright colors represent brand values exactly but just on RGB mode, there aren't any alternative CMYK colors that can do the same. Hope you see this cmt and give me an advice. Appreciate all the things you have done!
Hi abi I always get confused about color palette you do. Like exploring color palette contrast etc. if you have chosen the palette at moodbord time then why to explore more?? Really confuse my 😥
Hi Ms. @Abi, i been watching your videos for a long time, :) i really like the way you present your process, I'm been a in-house graphic designer for 5 years and i decided to resigned and start pursuing my passion in brand identity design as a freelancer this year, can you share some advice? :) Thank you very much!
How to make sure that the logo you create will look good on any medium and in any sizes.i have been dealing with this problem in my design learning process recently.please help!
Hi Abi ! How do you keep the "round" pen ? Even when I select the round form, everytime that I made a new design with the pen it makes the design with the basic (angular) lines :( sorry for my bad english
Abi one question!? How do you find inspiration for your moodboards, I mean how exactly you know that this will work? because they are so amazing and resembles to your final designs. I tried trillion times before but failed miserably..
Thank you! Ooh that's such a hard question! It's really down to the designer and project scope. Some people work a little quicker and others take longer. Personally, I've wrapped things up in 5 weeks and other projects have taken about 10! As long as your client is happy with the agreed timeline and you're being fairly compensated, I don't think it matters!
Bear in mind, I’ve worked with a lot of clients, so this process was a work in progress for years. You’ll get there you just need to keep gaining experience
You are actually a Plastic Surgeon of Fonts ! 😅🤟🏼 btw do you also think the craze of Unwanted Minimal Logo is declining because people are bored with it ? I mean look at your logo and also few designers to this looks great.
haha! Well thank you 😊 One thing I will say is future trends are always dictated by what the opposite of whatever is trending currently. Skinny jeans were a trend for years, now it's all bootleg jeans. 3d logos were a trend in corporate logos for years, now it's all minimalistic.
please I have a question: Is the "Elevate your biz with these FREE resources" totally free to use commercially or personal? I'm new and self teaching graphic design and I'm at loss. Much appreciated on a detailed explanation, I'm inspired by your videos.
Hi Abi! Long time fan of your content. Just want to point out that the "How to Streamline your Client Process like a Pro" freebie on your website does not work. I was hoping to download it :")
Wow loved the video!.. really eager to buy your templates too.. not sure if you are running any promo codes though. Would surely help if you are.. thank you
Thank you :) In terms of promo codes, I don't usually run any sales as I feel like it devalues the product, and I put a lot of time into developing the templates, hope you understand :)
@@abiconnick no problem Abi absolutely understand the love and work that’s gone behind your work. I wouldn’t devalue them either. Gone ahead and bought the pro bundle :)
how is your hand not always hurting using that mouse?! Oke, gonna watch the video now :p Just can't get over the fact that you are doing all this great work with that uncomfortable, poorly designed mouse :)
A 18 minute video that is better than two semesters in graphic design and branding combined.
Exactly bro 😁
For real, i think my best friend would’ve liked this more than her graphic design program combined
Also Illustrator 😅
Abi, you're a blessing to the design community. Thank you for all your effort. It encapsulates so much, so precisely.
ah thank you, I appreciate it!
Abi consistently guides us in the art of becoming proficient brand designers... heartfelt gratitude for your invaluable guidance❣

How do you create the pencil sketch effect used in many of your thumbnails? 🙏

Love this!!! Thank you. Question:
On average, how long do you think is an acceptable completion time for a brand identity from scratch?
Thank you!
Ooh that's such a hard question! It's really down to the designer and project scope. Some people work a little quicker and others take longer. Personally, I've wrapped things up in 5 weeks and other projects have taken about 10! As long as your client is happy with the agreed timeline and you're being fairly compensated, I don't think it matters!
@@abiconnick I know it's a hard one but I appreciate your reply! It's what I needed!
Thank you
what is that software which you were using for your brand presentation??
Your videos make it look so simple but when I try this with my client I just get stuck in some of the places.
I guess I will learn by doing it myself.
Bear in mind, I’ve worked with a lot of clients, so this process was a work in progress for years. You’ll get there you just need to keep gaining experience
Hi Abi! Do you provide the client with the font file or do they purchase the font on their own? Love your videos!!❤
I personally send them a link so they can purchase their own license! Thank you!
Hey Abi! I was wondering how did you transform the eraser tool in a rectangle shape? (or if somebody know ahaha)
Hold alt and drag
Thanks !!! @@talkwithtemidayo
what's the website where you find the fonts on 5:01 ?
Envato Elements!
You are too good
YOU ARE BOSS!
Nice video and the final brand identity 🎉
Could you tell me how long it took to create this whole? Like the full time, 2 days / more / less? ;)
I didn't time myself so I can't tell you exactly! Typically projects like this take 4-5 weeks of on and off work :)
@@abiconnick Ok, I get it :)
You are actually a Plastic Surgeon of Fonts ! 😅🤟🏼 btw do you also think the craze of Unwanted Minimal Logo is declining because people are bored with it ? I mean look at your logo and also few designers to this looks great.
haha! Well thank you 😊 One thing I will say is future trends are always dictated by what the opposite of whatever is trending currently. Skinny jeans were a trend for years, now it's all bootleg jeans. 3d logos were a trend in corporate logos for years, now it's all minimalistic.
@@abiconnick true !
please I have a question:
Is the "Elevate your biz with these FREE resources" totally free to use commercially or personal?
I'm new and self teaching graphic design and I'm at loss.
Much appreciated on a detailed explanation, I'm inspired by your videos.
All the free resources are fine to use commercially :) Wish you all the best!
@@abiconnick thank you! you too!😁
can you design a luxury stationery brand from start to finish?
Where would I find someone to do such a logo for me?
Where do you create your presentations?
Adobe Illustrator!
Hi Abi! Long time fan of your content. Just want to point out that the "How to Streamline your Client Process like a Pro" freebie on your website does not work. I was hoping to download it :")
After seeing your comment I just downloaded the file and it is working fine.
Hey 👋 people seem to still be downloading it fine, what issue are you running in to?
what dimensions do you use for the file?
1920 x 1080 pixels :)
Any course u have ab branding?
www.abiconnick.co.uk/the-client-process
I read it as "Brow Land" and thought it was for a beauty business... Oops!
Do you always design your work in RGB?
Yes, then if the cleint needs it in CMYK I convert it
Nice video I'm New in this field please explain me what I learn fast 😹
Don’t try to learn fast, just be consistent over the years and you’ll get there
Wow loved the video!.. really eager to buy your templates too.. not sure if you are running any promo codes though. Would surely help if you are.. thank you
Thank you :) In terms of promo codes, I don't usually run any sales as I feel like it devalues the product, and I put a lot of time into developing the templates, hope you understand :)
@@abiconnick no problem Abi absolutely understand the love and work that’s gone behind your work. I wouldn’t devalue them either. Gone ahead and bought the pro bundle :)
Yo do you go to SFU ?
No, I'm based in the UK and didn't go to university
NIce
how is your hand not always hurting using that mouse?! Oke, gonna watch the video now :p Just can't get over the fact that you are doing all this great work with that uncomfortable, poorly designed mouse :)
Haha 🤣 my partner tells me this all the time, but I’ve grown to love the Magic Mouse 🐭
Wait wait! You draw with a computer mouse??? Damnnn
haha, i get this reaction a lot!

No client has answers like this thoo
They do if you ask the right questions
You are incredible girl
Loved and enjoyed every bit of this and I truly learnt from this🫶🏽
