For all the struggling artists out there
I am a 53 year old woman that just graduated with my BFA in Graphic Design and self teaching in illustration and painting. I refuse to let this ageist world label me and hold me down. I keep up with current trends and styles and I know the history of art and design. If us "older" people are not allowed to retire until we are 62 then you're going to have to let us work until then! PERIOD> Also, remember this, if you are young now, you WILL be older soon. Don't be ageist. You'll only be hurting your future self. We are all human beings with feelings and aspirations. Love is the answer. The mindset that older people cannot adapt to technology as quickly as the younger generation is such an ageist way of thinking. It's such a lie. I can run circles around many people in the tech world. Don't judge people by how they look. You don't judge people by the color of their skin or by their sex, so don't judge us by the number of lines on our faces and we wont judge you for your lack of experience lines. You are me and I am you.
You have to sell your soul and do gigs you hate and get treated very badly.
Thank you. It is very well explained and helpful
Right now, I am trying to learn the softwares and to learn how to design what to do I am constantly copying the tutorials on RUclips. If I continue to do that, at the end, may I start to design my own work
600 companies my ass...
closer to 700 now. Out of that 700 interviews, landed 103 clients. so that's about 1 in 7 close rate, not too bad.
Could you share the clascity overview word document?
here you go :) docs.google.com/document/d/19l7zWMGqrPNPrg7DLvrIhrxpVZjpKmSlyVmbOw45sXk/edit?usp=sharing
@@KaYungCalebLai Woow thank you, this really helped me!
Michael Beirut spoke at Spalding University one time in Louisville Kentucky for an AIGA Conference. When I asked him the same question (because I had a problem with a teacher at my college), the one thing he said specifically is that design has no age limit.
Thank you +700 hours including development Or only the design?
Thank you very much for the grid system tutorial, Im working on a web app project now and I’m probable gonna use grid system, I wish you could go more in depth into how crafting out the layout of a web app is done, how to know what navigation contents and layouts to use and cards etc
I'm confused though because the width of the columns in the blue is 74 (not a multiple of 8), making the card a size thats not a multiple of 8. I'm new to UI so I think I'm missing something
the width of the grid will also be changing based on the display size. So the content itself doesn't have to be a multiple of 8. We do try to keep the padding/margin sizing to match the 8px rule tho.
😂 Bro what's the purpose of this video if you just quick look and say no to everything. You definitely cannot be a hiring manager It Feels Like You judging a book by its cover. Please show us your super cool and perfect portfolio so we can learn 😎👁️
Saying no is what hiring managers do. You skim through hundreds of applications to fill one role.
Very helpful. Thanks
Which tool were you using for the product map and prototype?
I can't thank you enough Kayung, got 3 offers from product based companies! I tailored the answers a bit to my needs but kept the overall structure and in a couple interviews I had these exact questions asked to me.
aww that's great, congrats!
I wish I had seen this video a few weeks back. I went into an interview and just screwed up so bad. I have all the skills and competence of the job and I do it everyday, but when they started asking me questions I just froze and wasn't able to answer well. Went on rambling. Now I can see it is exactly because of this whole power dynamic thing. I positioned myself lower as an employee in my mind and appeared as not confident. This tip is really practical and helpful. Hope I can practice and implement it. Thanks man!
glad you find it helpful :)!
Massive thanks for this website hosting info! Ive skilled Bluehost and GoDaddy, but Cloudways with TST20 coupoon is the budget-friendly alternative.

Thanks for all the information, not only the video but also the info in the comments. It's really helpful ☺ Hope you're doing well and thanks again!
Thanks for watching! Let me know if you have any questions about building a product, maybe I can make a video for it
@@KaYungCalebLai Actually, it's great to see your answer! I'm leading a big web application project. Perhaps a video on the use of Scrumban and those things. I already saw your comments about more useful stuff like Jira and Whimsical. Also, a video about the use of Figma it would be great. Thanks! ♥
Yes it does. X-ers and older kern their type, younger generations don't.
nice video, very well explained
Thanks!
Simple but genius! Thank you for the video!
thank you!
Thanks<3
Is there an update on how your company is going now? Is it profitable now?
It's still going, I'm getting 1~3 signups/day and total over 1700 users in the database now

Hi Caleb, which webcam do you use to record high quality videos like this?🙏🏾
Hey this video I was using the Nikon D750 with the 20mm 1.8 lense.
Nice trip! Wonderful vdo! I also love the songs. Can you please share name of the artist and album?
Hey I am new to this field. After asking with so many seniors , I got to know that I must have my portfolio to get a job( in behance or dribbble) . Okay so I have created my account on behance but i dont have anything to upload there. I followed some UI design tutorials from youtube and posted there . I still need to learn UI design basics like typography, spacing , alignment, padding, border radius, fonts, typefaces and much more. I have a idea in my mind that I will redesign my university's mobile application because it is very bad user friendly. How can i start ? I found your video after searching so much on RUclips. I just cant design a whole application from scratch at this level.
Hey yea, check out my tutorial series, you should be able to learn the basic of graphic design. Then do these design exercises.
Hi, thanks for your sharing. Which platform/ application do you use to design and create high fidelity mockup? Is that Canvas? Thank you!
I use figma :) no serious designer would use canvas
@@KaYungCalebLai Thanks for your reply. Will go for figma then :)
To this day, this still has to be one of the BEST videos on this topic out there! A lot of videos just ramble on and dont really give specific steps on what to study and all that. So thank you for your clear, succint video! Another tip that I think might help, and correct me if im wrong, but maybe looking at the curriculums of graphic design programs, seeing what they include in their classes, and looking up information based on those classes that they offer on your own.
Thanks Rachael! Really appreciate your comment. Glad to see this 5 year old video still helping people :)
I know money comes into play when self taught and learning on your own and making money and downloading a bunch of apps and learning hands on works well when your a visual learner and learning full time with designer without going through General ed courses but learn all the aspects of digital design and sketch apps that relate to what you need to put on your portfolio
Q: How did you develop work contacts through AIGA w/o a college degree? I'm asking because it seems my college gives me a hard time about talking to the members unless you're enrolled.
You don't need to find clients through a college, just go to some job boards, they are everywhere.
@@KaYungCalebLai Job boards? Like online? And are they named? _ and Thank you!
@@KaYungCalebLai ...online remote work?[ the internet is loaded with 'passwords' ]
@@KaYungCalebLai I admire you , in that you don't need mentorship nor sponsorship to tell me about job boards_ just to let you know 😉.
I watched AIGA Buisiness of Chapters,...Q: Is it possible that in order to be a self- taught designer or be a designer, you need 18 months of operating cost for cash flows? 💸 A: I think it's yes.
Can this tip work on me because my aim is to learn graphic design only as a hobby or side hustle. but finding a mentor is already a red flag to me since i am very introverted. is there a way to substitute that idea?
Yea, I don't have a mentor, you can figure the whole thing out yourself.
I am working as a graphic designer in a leading E commerce company in India. Is it possible to get remote jobs..earning in dollars. We actually don't earn much in India, and I don't have that finance to move to other countries right now. If someone is seeing this comment, could anyone please help me in getting at least some work from other countries
thanks for sharing this dude, you answered alot of my questions. maybe you could do a video of how to interview/find a offshore engineer. I find it hard to trust/pay anyone that I just met online knowing that so many scams going around
Yea so that's why I think finding someone locally first is important, hopefully that local dev can help you interview, review code and make sure the offshore dev is legit. I tired 3~4 devs before finding the right one.
honestly, school wont teach you that much, 4 years is a waste of time, diploma doesnt even matter. will, determination, patience, passion, skills and experience will make you successful
Thanks, Caleb!
ur welcome :)
this is the realest video about graphic design
This is my personal opinion but I think "fake" projects are very helpful.. Maybe other designers can tell they are fake but clients can't. And of course you should try to find real clients but you need more pieces to build a portfolio. Choosing your best "fake" projects can help to fill some gaps.
Have you tried using chat GPT to come up with design project brief? Give it an app idea prompt and it’ll generate a pretty detailed spec doc for an MVP with user persona and stuff. If you can back your fake project with research I think it’ll work!
This was exactly what I needed. Thank you sooo much for sharing and breaking down every step by step.
You’re welcome!
GReat video!!! Thanks you for sharing your knowledge! So basically it's good to know both as a designer, I take it.
Graphic Design definitely should be in anyone's skill set. Mentor and Internship are probably the hardest steps. It really depends on the person. Are they really necessary in this day and age?
Not necessary, I didn't hire a mentor myself. But I do get a lot of experience working with people in a team setting. So finding a job/internship is still important.
Thanks this is helpful.

So damn helpful Thanks!!
