Becoming a Car Designer in 2024: Why Being Obsessed is Non-Negotiable 

A year back I was heavily obsessed with car design, used to work on my design skills and car sketches every single day but a few months back I went through a bit of a rough patch which took a huge toll on my obsession and my love for car design. This video was really like a wake up call for me to get up and do better because I firmly believe I have a lot to give and prove to the design community and one day, just one day if i keep my head down and stay focused on creating my visions I will become one of the best. I do not mean this from a place of arrogance or cockiness but more from a self belief standpoint and putting the word out there so I can lock in and do better. Thank You Berk once again, I've been following your content since 2020, love seeing your work.

Good part of the day Berk. I'm so happy to hear that message. I swear to God, just yesterday I was browsing through Behance projects and felt so overwhelmed. Also, this was affirmation for the steps I decided to take (learning the same tools you mentioned). Wish you the best in your career and life. Thank you!

Thanks sir!!! for this great video...💝❤️‍🔥🎉

oh damn im early here anyway for some advice for people I was given some offers from universities for automotive design, some being unconditional. I 100% agree with Berk here you need to show honestly how obsessed you are with cars and design and how you express this to set yourself apart from everyone else. You don't need to have perfect, clean slate portfolio with flawless sketches, you need sketches and work that you think is useful and relevant and most accurately represents your skill and progression, these can be pages covered in sketches, clean art or maybe even very rough stuff.

Great idea

With the birth of EV’s, there will be perhaps an increased demand for designers. There was a VW press conference a couple months ago where they revealed their plan moving forward, and they basically emphasized the importance of design in the near future and that it would be one of the main deciding factors for customers, especially with EV battery technology being similar across the industry. So, hopefully there will still be demand for car designers. 💪🏼

I was hoping if a two wheelers 3d modelling could be added in the blender advanced course.

Berk, do you plan to offer a discount on your courses for Christmas? : )) Thanks.

I think the way i would like to get in the field, is like getting into transport (eng) and then get in design field then (imo) there would be more job opportunities and i would like to work on other transport related project with automotive design.

Im 37 years old, I work for a motorcycle company but not in design. I want to design a future motorcycle. I am a beginner in sketching, but know photoshop and blender well, know how motorcycle works. Planning to learn marker sketching, Unreal Engine 5, plasticity and Substance. Hope I complete the project in 2024.

Can we include two wheelers and reverse trikes in the course

Yes it was me the one who posted your video to my story cuz I guess u have important points. Etc...

Hey Berk! I've got a question: Would not having a diploma impact my chances of becoming a car designer? Also, any tips on more affordable schools or alternative paths for someone like me from Algeria who's finding it tough to finance studies abroad? Thanks for any advice you can offer!

nice video; may I campaign for another tool? What about physical modeling? What about pepakura and paper models?

I have a bachelor’s in mechanical engineering and I want to be a car designer. Should I do my masters in automotive design or should I start with online courses?

Hey I’m thinking of being a car designer in the future, do you think you could critique one of my designs and give me some tips?

from which grade you started practicing

as a prediction, do these jobs pay well like i want 80-90k after 4yrs of being in the job , is that realistic ? will this job be good in the future at 2028-2029 or will ai take over?

Will interior design be a better choice ? ?

Hi great video¡ Berk,Can I be a car designer without a college degree?
