Just found this series of videos today.

Not surprising, I learned more in this video alone than I did in four years of school as far as what graphic design even is. Thank you for sharing real knowledge.

Feynman technique:
Graphic design is about how to decide what kind of visual element that can solve the problem and communicate clear idea or message

So I just came to comment and again... after many years. This is just to say thank you. You gave me the most basic foundation to get started with. You’re literally the reason I’m considered not just as a designer today but one of the best in my area. I reference you and this particular video anytime I’m teaching someone design. Thank you.

This is so amazing. I paid for a graphic training and gave up because the classes were not interesting, but you have changed me mindset on graphics. Thank you 🙏 so much.

I started thinking about studying graphic design when I was in my second year of high school. When the time came for me to apply to collage I told my father about it but he has already applied me into a medical collage. I told him that it wasn't what I wanted but he didn't listen. I thought that no matter what I say wouldn't matter and was scared to confront my father again so I ended up entering the collage. Things were depressing for me since then, but my brother told me that I can still learn what I want even if my collage isn't the field I want. I was convinced and here I am searching to know more about graphic design.
Honestly this was so helpful for me and I found myself interested even more! so thank you so much for making this, you're a wonderful teacher and certainly know how to help! thank you and stay well :)
