  1. Hey guys, Hope you enjoyed the video! I know a large percentage of my audience are designers, but I’m intrigued, I want to know what the other half of you do for work? Let me know and hopefully I can create some content that can be of use. Appreciate all the support as always, y’all the best 💛

    1. I work in marketing 🙂 but at the moment I am learning graphic design basics as a large part of my job is hiring freelancers and I want to understand how to order the best possible content and stay on brand 🙂

    2. @Greta Jocienė Yes this is such a smart way of approaching it! I plan to do the exact same when getting my new website. Learn more about web design so I know the fundamentals and what to ask for!

    3. Hi Abi I’m from india Am doing Graphic designing from last three year now am planning to move in uk can you guide how i can get job there

  2. I really want to know how you edit your video with what program and where do you find all this audio like clicking and stuff

    1. My partner edits my videos, he uses premiere pro and after effects and get’s all his assets from envato!

  3. hi, i have 1000 psd file with same background image but different logo and contact details at the bottom, i want to replace the background image for all the psd file in bulk, how can I do it?

    1. MacBook pro m1 max 🙂 I share this with my partner tho who’s a video editor so this is overkill for design!

    1. Thank you 🙂 So when first started I used the equation mentioned in this video: https://youtu.be/bWoDrPqVo-4 and over time as my skills, experience and knowledge grew so did my price, also I started taking on bigger projects. My best advice would be charge what you feel comfortable with and then raise it over time! x

    1. Thank you! 😊 He will be featuring in content in the future! I think he could give a lot of valuable business information to the channel as he’s the one who runs mine! Also plan to do a podcast together in the future

  4. Hi, im looking into a career change. i used to actually study media and film and dabbled in occasional photoshop and creating posters etc, ive come across some apprenticeships that give u a level 3 in content producer type qualification. would these be a good starting point ! thanks in advance

    1. My partner actually did this apprenticeship, it’s a good starting place (you probably won’t learn much from the coursework as most of the info is outdated) but it’s a good opportunity to get into a work place and build some experience!

    2. @Abi Connick thanks for the response ! Okay great so it’s more a foot in the door type position? I’m just being very careful how I go about this cause I’m transitioning from a decently paid job so I’m trying to make the short term salary sacrifice as least painful as possible. But I do believe long term it’s worth investing in your happiness and being bold to change it all around

  5. Everyone I know who went to college and got a degree in graphic design never got a job in anything related to it. I am glad I didn’t study it.

  6. I made it a task for myself watching one of your videos everyday! And that’s my favorite task of the day. 🤩 love and admire you, keep going. ❤

  7. I have only found an interest in graphic design recently. I’m 15, but I would really love to get into this field of work. Does anyone have any tips? And what can I do to get into this career? :)))

    1. Great to hear! Well you have loads of time to learn which is great! I would just focus on learning as much as you can and creating passion projects where you get to play around, test your skills and be creative! Maybe start with trying to redesign some famous logos, that’s always fun! 😊
