Not many videos on logo design that have this level of info. All of em are pretty much same thing we've heard before. Not this one.

[@willpatersondesign]

We worked hard on this one to bring new things to you. So thank you!

[@RowdyChocolateOfficial]

@@willpatersondesign Oh absolutely, you deserve it. Hard work shows!

"Don't let your conscious mind sway your subconscious creativity." You have no idea how much I needed to hear that today.

Will, I can’t thank you enough. Though you may not have intended it, this video is cram-packed with exceptional advice for youngsters in STEM classes. (Actually, in my case it’s “STEAM” because some of us add Art into the mix of SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING , and MATHS.) As you carefully spelled out all the steps you go through in creating your designs…from “20 ideas in 20 minutes” and “don’t use erasers” and on… your concepts were just dripping with wisdom. My young designers, engineers, scientists, etc., (ages 10-14) all need to hear these words from a young, successful, charismatic professional like you so very much and I am forever grateful. Phenomenal!

Hi there! Amazing content as ever. These tips and tricks always get me motivated to do some of my own work. I'm currently an English teacher and own a small server wherein I teach. I was thinking about giving it a bit of a rebrand, especially its current server icon and server name, but I can't seem to find any original ideas. Most names and logos already exist. If you're keen on helping us out, feel free to shoot me a message with some server name ideas, or even som server icon ideas as I'm a bit lost right now. Thanks in advance, you're awesome!

Hi will can you make a video on logo presentation, i make good symbols & typography but somehow my logo looks bad, due to balance & colour & background colours, though i have found out my problem i am trying to work on it, but it would be helpful you share your tips & make video on it 😊

Got a Question. What's the name of that Mobile Software/ Application you use when designing logos on your tablet?

This video could use chapters/time stamps to make it easier to return to as a reference

I was meant to add them when the video went live. I’ve added them in now. Thanks for the reminder :)

Would u recommend graphic designing as a career in 2024?

[@-The-Golden-God-]

Hell fkn no. They industry is currently being decimated by AI and this is only the tip of the iceberg. Focus on a career that AI will struggle to replace.

Hello sensei!.....Will you do some indept reaction about nadestraight losing his job because of AI?

[@willpatersondesign]

I’ll take a look

[@AnAngryGranny]

Just curious, was the spelling of "REFELCT" done intentionally in order to emphasize the importance of using reflection to proof read your work, or was it just a typo?

[@willpatersondesign]

Just a typo :)
