I hate Graphic Design. For some context I am a Freelancer. For many people, being a graphic designer is a dream job that is fun, flexible overflowing with creativity.. but that doesn’t mean you get to make what you want all the time. In this video I talk about many reasons that deter me away from being a graphic artist: stress, communication, creative freedom and more. Should I stop being a graphic designer? What is making me stay, and is graphic design right for you? — Get 2 EXTRA MONTHS FOR FREE when you sign up to Artlist! ▶ https://bit.ly/3kUbbrt Follow me on Instagram! ▶ instagram.com/ashliejow My website: ▶ https://www.ashliejow.com/ MY GEAR!

  1. Hey all! Thanks for all the love on this video so far. I’d like to say creative burnout is real, regardless of experience- and a multitude of factors can contribute. . To those who have resonated with the video: you are validated! Some people can stick with a job forever, some may quit after a few months. Know your worth, take care of yourself mentally, remember your why, and do your best!

  2. I will start graphic design this year. What should I do before I start university during summer vacation? please give me advice on this

  3. It’s especially challenging for graphic designers working in the corporate world where you work with people who know nothing about the creative process. Not only do they expect great work every time, but they expect it FAST. Sometimes asking you come up with multiple design studies in an afternoon or so.

  4. Not just graphic designers tho anything that relates to creative fields is exhausting. I was a student of graphic designs and jump to landscape architects. Itis crazy like a roller coaster.creative people always have similar problem. I have the same problem in both fields

  5. sorry for my english. I recently graduated from college as a graphic designer and I feel so burnt out. I LOVE design, but I HATE being a designer. I feel frustrated and hopeless. Maybe i did the wrong career choice. I have no idea where to work and what should I do

  6. Is ABSOLUTELY the same for Motion Graphics is a wonderful job BUT the dark side is really really really DAAARK. But I love it.

  7. Just recently graduated from Design Foundation and……. honestly it seems boring Graphic Design in my own perspective.

    I have Dixlesia and I think different.

  8. Well you convinced me to give up on this path 🙂 so thanks…
    I wanted to become a graphic designer because i have a good esthetic sense but i have my own taste and i don’t think i can stand it if i make something and then the client tells me he doesn’t like it (especially if he doesn’t have any sense for beauty ) i can’t make something i don’t like…
    Anyway since i’m too picky.. this can’t be a good job for me…
    Haaaah i guess something like coding suits me better..

  9. Life is too short to feel the negative feelings we feel as a graphic designer everyday, so i quit 😅. I’d rather be a digital artists who has the freedom to do what he she love. Well im weak so what 😂

  10. hiii!! im going into graphic design in college hopefully next year and i just wanted to say i absolutely LOVE this video!! 🙂
