Thank you, Abi! I will be very happy if you make a long logo name of a brand (fake or real) using articles and connectives (the, of) because I’m having a hard time making it work.
"A warm hug", that's a great way to describe your channel! I just love coming here! You're the only RU-vidr/content creator who has and always been authentic 🤍 Love how vulnerable you are and never fail to remind us that we are all human 🥹 I have been binge watching your videos while I’m sick 🤒 Thank you for gifting us with them!
This video has made my day. Im a start up graphic designer and web developer. Something I have always genuinely enjoyed. Your videos are so inspiring and amazing Abi! We couldnt ask for a better mentor ❤️
amazing! i had a course about brand identity at my uni and you explained it way better in under 10 minutes! they would only tell us to do this and that and not give us any explanation as to why, which led to confusion, so thank you so much for everything that you do!
Welcome back! Just wanted to say - this was a great video, but I hope you won't let production keep you from coming on. I've been a longtime fan, and honestly my favorite of your videos were when you used to just talk to camera and design in mostly real time. It was great to just see your process and feel like we were hanging out in your studio. The more highly produced and scripted videos are nice, but something is lost in translation. I hope you feel free to just hang out and be yourself in this space as well. Anyway, all the best to you, and excited to see more!
Really appreciate this comment, thank you 😊I'd be lying if I said it hasn't stopped me in the past, but what you said is good to hear¬ I'll be bringing back those type of videos every now and then this year!
I am currently studying graphic design and I come back to this video so much. So grateful to your channel, so much knowledge and your videos are easy to follow and well organized always!!
This is brilliant Abi. I'm in the process of creating an identity for my personal brand and I had no idea where to start. This pointed me to the right direction .
Hey Abi congrats on your new course! Although I can’t afford it yet I appreciate you sharing this video as I’ve been struggling with my overall process ❤🙏🏽
Thank you! Been a long time in the works, but super happy with how it turned out! No worries if you can't afford it, I'll still be putting out informative content on here 💛
You presented the detailed information exceptionally well. This exemplifies true professionalism, where success is measured by zero amendments from the client. I've gained valuable insights from observing your work methods. Thank you😃
Genuinely great to hear you are back, I get the emails from you but was recently thinking how much I miss seeing you work particularly your brand design videos, regardless of the content I’ll be watching
I mean I’m not a brand designer and not even an aspiring one but your videos make me reconsider this direction, cause it looks so damn cool! Calculated and analytical but creative and beautiful at the same time
Abi YOU ARE THE BEST!!! I’ve learned so much with your videos, it’s crazy! Question - when you create the logo, let’s say you have the name and you want an icon/image with it (similar to your Whoopie example), do you always need to incorporate the icon + text in everything you use? What if the text doesn’t have anything from the icon in it?
Only if I could give you a hug in person. Thanks for so much value and videos that are well planned and help me take action. I literally watched your videos back to back multiply time cause everytime i learn something new form the same vedio. thanks dear
Glad it was helpful! 💛Not tired, just started to stop shouting in my RU-vid videos 😂 Didn't realise I was doing it until I looked back at some old videos!
Glad to see you back on RU-vid Abi! Great video btw, could you also do video on storing and securing files and important stuff? I'm super paranoid on losing my design files haha
Glad to hear you found the video helpful 😊 The course is mainly aimed at designers who have clients or are looking to go freelance, so don't worry I completely understand! I Knew it wouldn't be for everyone but I'll still be putting out helpful stuff on RU-vid and Instagram :)
@@abiconnick we all love the value you provide and the energy that you bring in, whenever I'm out of ideas or i feel burnt out, i watch your videos. Thank you.
I love all your videos - currently binge watching them all! (Better than Netflix!) I would love to learn a bit more about how you deal with font licences....do you purchase them on behalf of the client and include them in the files when you hand them over? Or do you give clients a link to where they can purchase them for themselves? Also, do you discuss their budget for a font? Some fonts are pretty expensive....!
Thank you for the kind words, means a lot! 😊 I actually have the perfect video coming out for you on Monday (I documented the process of working with a client and it shows how I deal with font licensing) But the shower answer is I always get them to purchase the licensing, I provide links for them. The point you raised about discussing a budget for a font is something I've never actually considered, (mainly because I use Envato elements for my fonts and they all tend to be super cheap) But it's for sure something worth bring up with the client if the font you're using is pricey!
Glad it was helpful! 😊 good or bad vibe change? One thing I'm doing is being less 'shouty' and dramatic with how I speak, I want my videos to feel more of a conversation you'd have with a friend!
@@abiconnick knowledge will always be happily appreciated whether if it is Exciting Sound or Soothing. I just felt the difference in the vibe but it doesn't mean it is bad. I just felt so I said because I Follow you deeply ✌🏼
Abi can you please make a full video on how you get your clientele for projects? As a fellow designer i would appreciate it. Thank you for providing such valuable content.❤
Can you make a full depth video about brand strategies? I struggle with a lot as a student..like how do you present the solutions? what are the problems the brand is facing that a graphic designers can solve?
Comments like this are the best 😊 So happy to hear I've been able to help! Don't worry I'll still be putting out content consistently on hear, the course is more fore people who are already making money from design and want to elevate their design business even more!
Such a great breakdown of the numerous stages & I would love to take your course, but the link is currently broken 😢! Thank you Abi for providing amazing, invaluable content & making us all excited about design again 🎉
Glad you found the video helpful! I've got a few people to test the link and it's working fine for them, could I ask what is coming up so I can fix it. Here's the link for easy reference: www.abiconnick.co.uk/the-client-process
Have a video coming on this soon! But essentially, used make the changes then reuploaded the brand presentation with these new changes for the client to approve 😊
I have question to u/ u can make a video on this if u want actually..💥💥 How can I express same shape with many variation, in many mnemonic design / many logo design we can see people adjust shape with typeface.. What process do we follow to create or generate combination mark logos.. Example -Let's say 'kinn' a switch company, so someone visually makes the i -looks like switch expression! 'Zihp' a construction company, maybe H can be emphasis looks like House! So, I wanna know overall process and how manys ideas can be implement to get many variation logos
Hi Abi , i have been watching your videos for so long and really loves your content. I have a question regarding this video. In brand assests what is difference between brand illustrations and brand pattern . As you make one thing as used is noth style. Also how we export brand assets as it's using as a pattern so each design separartely or as a whole. Help me out . thanks
This is great when the client agree to the first proposal. But when he/she did not ? How to elaborate enough distinct graphic direction from first idea ?
Hello! Thank you so much for this. Can you tell us how u get ur mockup? Is it ok to take mockup from free resources like freepik ect and give it for the client?
Hello, hope you're doing fine. How long does a project like this usually takes? Apologies if it's mentioned in the video and I've missed it. And thank you for the video! Been watching you for about a year now, it's nice and inspiring to see your growth. Wish you the best
Hey, I'm good thank you 😊 So when I work on branding projects I book out 4-6 weeks for them, but the design process usually takes around a week. Appreciate your support!
