A great designer and public speaker, but terrible at speaking to people at parties | Elliot Ulm

Well loved for his KZbin channel and funny, tongue-in-cheek typographic posters, Elliot Ulm told the New York Nicer Tuesdays audience why he is in fact simply a “cute Aussie” who “posts pretty pictures online”.

Elliot is a cool guy. This crowd was not very enthusiastic though which seems about right for a design talk.

[@KILOPOWER]

i think that's because of the mic placement. I've listened to a few of public talks and imo crowd here was even more enthusiastic than ususal. deservedly ofc

[@nikhedonia3431]

Yeah, it definitely sounds more like noise suppression rather than a bad crowd

[@ChumpWumber]

was gonna say the crowd is really not giving him anything to work with here lmao

[@bordengal]

Don’t let the recording fool you! I got to see this live and the crowd really LOVED Elliot! Everyone was laughing and engaged during his talk. I remember people swarming him during a brief break asking for pictures and stuff. It was clear the majority of people attending were there to see him (as was I) :]

[@ames-inthe-grass]

he is so funny lmaoo this crowd is dead af

[@prettybinx]

I think they’re muting them out? It comes across really odd, idk why they muted the laughs to a severe degree lmao

[@inkyoggy]

The fact that he used papyrus makes this so much funnier

[@twicelands]

elliot is a cool guy

[@art_means_artificial]

he is a lovely clown

[@matthiasalart4225]

Man, I can't remember the last time I saw such a cool guy

[@santiagoaguillar582]

Elliot really is a cool guy

[@art_means_artificial]

he is a lovely clown

[@116stuart]

as a graphic designer who at the moment only lives to design for clients, I hope one day I can be as cool as Elliot. This is a great presentation and got me thinking about how serious I should take my work

[@LucaTheScientist]

damn

[@lateksu5]

That was genuinely one of the best speeches ive ever heard. Funny, sweet, inspiring - the passion really shines through, whether that be for designing or the designers.

[@danielcapitaoo]

Elliot is such an inspiration on how to take on design, the process and its ups and downs. Seriously, he deserves all the credit.

[@gigoe]

wow its so cool there are a million people in this room. thats so cool and im so jealous of you elliot coolguy

[@casparhollow]

[@blazehaze233]

I love Elliot! he's so fun and talented, I'm glad to see him have more exposure

[@bluwbyte]

man i cant believe how cool that guy is, and a good cook too!

[@Barrrt]

I think the laughter is rather muted to what a mic would pick up at my laptop right now

[@l1p0v]

Elliot says he doesn't care about graphic design and that got me thinking if I actually care about it or not. Should I have a caring attitude in this line of work? What is it even like to care about graphic design? Is there a preferred gatekeeping way of caring about it? Do I actually like designing? I think I do. I enjoy both the process and the end result. But what if I'm lying to myself?

[@sander-wit]

Elliot is a cool guy.

[@sophietyrrell4797]

Coolness scale absolutely off the charts

[@CristianArtlejandro]

Elliot is a very funny and cool guy

[@space_1073]

Presentation venues like this aren't usually mic'd up to highlight crowd laughter like a standup set is. I guarantee the crowd was a lot more into it than it sounds.

[@jasperdhaene4275]

[@jogurtt1a]

Cool guy this Elliot fella

[@christiancastano8369]

what a cool block

[@okrack5527]

Well well welliot is the cool guy

[@worshipdemons]

How ugly that they generalize the type of person who wants to be a designer, given that there are many possibilities and trends in this discipline, but it is still very annoying when a horde of NPC followers without identity arrive to spam the comments and wont make discussion. Overall i feel that Elliot is good talking to people and leaving his position on design since communication it's key to designers and many young people identify with him, his personality is a gift that he has.

[@progress_games]

Sorry boss, won't let it happen again!

[@kriss12loverap]

Thumbnail contradict itself lol

[@raheelshayaan]

[@Atskas]

as a wise person in the comments section once said, "Don’t let the recording fool you! I got to see this live and the crowd really LOVED Elliot! Everyone was laughing and engaged during his talk. I remember people swarming him during a brief break asking for pictures and stuff. It was clear the majority of people attending were there to see him (as was I) :]" -@bordengal 2024
