The Designer/Engineer Relationship! - w/ HelloMayuko & Jarvis Johnson

I'm so happy to finally get to collab with these two! They seriously have some of my favorite channels on YouTube and you should definitely check them out. They both work as engineers at Patreon, so I thought I'd use this opportunity to ask them about working with designers, and what we as designers can do to help the process of getting our designs built.

Omg please do a Design/Marketing one!!

This came out such a convenient time for me!! I've always watch all of your videos on this channel as well as those of some other designers but just recently started watching Mayuko's and Jarvis'!! I'm a double major in comp sci and design so I wanna try to do both! Thanks for the vid:)

Super video. So much of this is true across the board in other fields as well. Coming from the Semiconductor world, there are many different kinds of engineers that touch a product through its lifecycle-- "throwing anything over the wall" is never ever a good thing no matter the profession--- even if you're both engineers. Cheers to this!!! Loving your channel Charli!

architects vs civil engineers same struggle, i am an architect and love the great content on your channel

[LuciaMontesEN]

This was really cool to listen to, very insightful!

[oleavideo]

👍🏽 - those of us [designers] who have been in 1 or more awkward situations with engineering where empathy & patience during a project would've saved the day (sped up the build process), but instead fear, frustration & misunderstanding were the outcome.

I'm an engineer who works with a UX designer and I liked this video!

[kathyazada]

Really great and important convo to have. I'm a designer and I can remember the "Over the Wall" days--I've always thought that engineers and designers operate from different sides of the brain, so it's great for us to hear that there is massive overlap in how we can produce an efficient design. Also, designers and engineers can be arrogant assholes in their own special ways ;) so dialogue-ing early is so important so that we can feel we have each other's backs.

I loved this episode, it's been very useful, Mayuko and Jarvis provided a lot of great insights and aha! moments. It's been very fun and educational, thanks

[sharonmathew]

Appreciate the new insight you've brought on the channel!

[krzysztofkulka]

Oh Good Gracious I've been trying to understand how the designing world works and you gave me some answers! Great stuff! Carry on doing your vlogs...i do like them a lot :-)

[Lillith.]

I want to be a UX designer because of that. Currently busy with my minor in programming. I suggest everybody look into the opposite field, makes it way easier to communicate.

[robertfish]

Amazing video, love these nerdy videos

[MinimaLune]

One of the problems I had with the developer in a company I worked at was sending the designs' assets and details to the programmer and I would love to know what apps/services we should use to ease this task. Thanks for the video.

[PatrikKron]

I study a software engineer program that has a few courses in interactiondesign, and one of the specializations is in design and human-computer interaction. It sounds like I'll find some of the courses helpful in my career. (I'll probably go for a specialization in software engineering or computer security).

[antikertech]

Good video! I was about to ask for a video on exactly this topic because I am developing an app with a software engineer and developer. Thanks

[matthkang]

Do you guys ever disagree? Everybody's like on the same wavelength.

[RobFos]

Mayuko needs to get her ring re-adjusted because she is constantly fiddling with it every 5 seconds That 5-carrot might be too heavy for her LOL :D
Anyways awesome video :D

[boomcazoom]

Hey I just like subscribe to the guy in the middle like a day ago.

[BarelyInformedWithElad]

i wish you guys disagreed on one thing lol
