This is a goldmine for everybody that's starting or who want to step up their game. Thank you so much! Gonna rewatch it 3-4 more times like the client to stick to my brain 😆

[@rachelhurry3449]

Glad you like it Cosmin! Thanks for watching ☺️

[@Ladefuss]

What a professional piece of work. Respect. Thank you Rachel. Really enjoyed this and it will inspire my own work.

[@rachelhurry3449]

Thank you Henrik! Appreciate the kind words!

[@soumyadeepgoswami4730]

@@rachelhurry3449 i have a query regarding font selection in branding ... can i ask you here ?

[@yxlim8981]

This is my favourite series on Flux! Love how you walk us through the whole process, thanks Rachel!

[@rachelhurry3449]

So happy you enjoy it!

[@niravparmar7856]

The best video I have seen on branding in web design so far. Thank you ma'am.

[@rachelhurry3449]

Thanks Nirav! Happy you liked it 😁✨

[@JeremyMuradesign]

Rachel is a boss at brand identity, 10/10.

[@rachelhurry3449]

Thank you Jeremyyyy! 🙌✨💃

[@alexam225]

I love watching Rachel go over her brand projects step-by-step! Hope to see her more!

[@SaltLake180]

I am blown away by this detailed break up of branding for a start up. It is an invaluable lesson. My only question is how much time went into it all. Also I am glad that she included the rejected mood board just like it happens in the real world. Thanks

[@GilangD21]

More of this please!! Its very interesting to hear every detail of thinking behind every aspect in the work.

[@maciejdoczyk8196]

I love your design and the process Rachel. I believe that the right structure is the important aspect of the designer work. Without a right foundation it’s almost impossible to create a quality design. Great job!

[@iLitTheSun]

I appreciate the journey so much in this. Showing your iterations and how you tried many solutions before landing on the final output is super relatable and reassuring to me as a design student because my process (and Artboards!) are very similar so far.

[@nicosmat]

This is amazingly helpful, thank you so much Rachel, you rock! The content you have been releasing here recently as well as your work on the course has just been incredible. I'm just closed my first brand design project and this content is really helping me through this. So grateful, please keep it up!

[@rachelhurry]

SO happy to hear that Nico! Congrats on your first client!

[@fullcircledesignire]

This is a brilliant presentation Rachel, great work! I was actually thinking of including a video presentation for my own portfolio. Rather than sending a long presentation that a lot of clients don't have time to read, include a video similar to this where they can get a sense of how I work and the benefits of working with me.

[@FluxAcademy]

Go for it!

[@aliounet7009]

Thank you! It's precious to see the whole process :)

[@FluxAcademy]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@cr8tivemo]

Goldmine of information that I've stumbled across at the right time!! Thanks

[@danieladebajo7974]

As a beginner, the amount of knowledge I gained from this is immense. I am truly grateful. Looking forward to more of this.

[@santiagorivas1570]

Amazing. KZbin chapters to navigate the 40 minute video would be AWESOME, keep it going!

[@FluxAcademy]

Noted!

[@HaychCe]

Thank you so much for showing your process. I find these kinds of videos so useful but I know how much effort it takes to make it so I appreciate it

[@rachelhurry3449]

Thanks for watching Alice ☺️

[@WijdaneAZMZM-qd2kd]

That's really helpful , you can't find content like this everywhere . Thank you for sharing your creativity with us . Sending love to all of the academy members

[@fisshermangaming7420]

This is a really amazing video. Tons of knowledge here! Thank you Rachel. Looking forward for more videos like this.

[@DanieldePedrosa]

Thank you for your sharing, it was delightful and made me think about my process and how to be more organized. Really inspires me. I will save it for later!

[@soufianeloukili1858]

What a brilliant branding we really need to explore Rachel's magnificent portfolio

[@livingeastofeden]

I'm needing a brand identity for my business which i started in April this year. I was so disappointed to find out that you're no longer taking on clients. I'm really enjoying your videos, thank you

[@fannizsozso]

Soooo impressed...just checked the website...wish i had the chance to travel and try out this company in person

[@minesioantonio2066]

I loved how it was developed. Minesio here from Mozambique

[@michelsoriano7289]

Nice work. I hope your client understands that this project isn't a cheap one. You put a lot of effort in the whole process. 💪😇

[@mickeylu2001]

love the branding process

[@yashkalra6518]

She explained all the process so easily. Loved the video 😍

[@rachelhurry3449]

Thanks for stopping by ☺️

[@thekofiannan]

The strategy of identifying the norm first before making a decision helps a lit with achieving a unique outcome

[@reemab3403]

This is absolutely great. i'm so grateful for the amount of detail you went into your process. 39 minutes packed with invaluable insight. thank you so much!

[@haggiesm]

beautiful work. Love that you included the negative initial feedback. That's how it is and so many designers lose heart when it happens.

[@drewehrman]

Great video, thanks so much for going through your process! Makes me feel like I'm not crazy since I design like this too!

[@FluxAcademy]

Thanks for watching! 😀

[@TheAfnan00]

Thank you for sharing this invaluable video. There are tons of lessons and takeaways from this. I can already feel like I am better designer now by watching this. This sure is gonna help me improve my work. The way you explained everything, the whole process that is pure gold. Thank you so much.

[@MDATIK-id5uk]

Thank you so much Rachel. I really enjoy this full video. Very professional your work

[@rachelhurry3449]

Thanks for watching!

[@rafalpotasz]

This video pushed me over the top guys, I'll be buying the branding course 😩😁. Thanks for the extremely insightful content. I wish there was more content like this as it REALLY stimulates my own thought process. Question: What level of drawing skills do you think is required to be effective throughout this sort of process? And I realise that drawing 100% helps as a lot of ideas seem to appear on the page. I just suck at drawing but nevertheless I am working on improving it so I'm curious how paramount it is. Thanks 😅

[@SaltLake180]

Drawing is just not that important for graphic design; coming up with good ideas is. These days you have so many resources available. You can definitely tweak things in illustrator or any other vector art software.

[@rafalpotasz]

@@SaltLake180 Agreed. It would be beneficial but it is not necessary. In my experience, so far, anyway.

[@coopersamp6002]

Beautiful work, Rachel! I find it awesome how detailed you communicate your thinking behind the design, your process, and also the client’s feedback as well. Looking forward to see this live! Out of curiosity, how long does this process typically take from start to finish?

[@rachelhurry3449]

Thanks Coooer! This particular project took us over a year to complete due to Covid and other challenges but we got there! Typically though a project like this with branding and a website would be a 3-4 month long process atleast.

[@Kiki-mt7iz]

I love your video. It’s so informative insightful educative in fact it’s a gem thank you ❤

[@FluxAcademy]

Glad it was helpful!

[@CreativeCraze59]

Your talent is a true inspiration to others.

The way you present is on another level..learnt soo much from this video.. just loved it. as a brand designer this is like a guide video for me ..

[@pauljohn3898]

This is an absolutely amazing video showing the whole process of brand design from scratch. Hope to see more of your work!, keep going!

[@ShaddeyNNM]

Love this! This is the second video I'm watching by Rachel and I love her process. This type of videos are helpful because I'm starting a business myself and have basic graphic design principles from my time in architecture school. This video was especially exciting because I'm from Costa Rica

Very nice work. I use CORE too, I'm a graphic designer, but I want to move away from «painting pixels»... I'm tired of it, I just want to do strategy and help clients with that... Anyway, keep up the great work! All of you there, at least the ones that come in front of a camera, ahahaha!

[@haggiesm]

When you delve down so deep into a project, going through iteration after iteration, how do you keep your mind fresh and open to discovery? I find that I often need a break from a project, so that I can actually what and judge what I'm doing.

Beautiful work, so inspirating

What about showing mobile version of the website design side by side with the 36:30 ? Would be nice to see the process how you modify for desktop > ipad > mobile....

[@carriealways90]

Thanks so much for sharing your process! Love to learn about your thinking too! :) Just curious, how long does it take for you to design a brand identity like this?

[@WhiskeyThieves]

If we were to use this process as a template for building a portfolio of several projects across different industries. Would it look dull if the projects followed the exact same pattern of layout?

You rock ❤🎉

it's fantastic, is there any possible to get that pdf?

[@danieldelapena972]

Hi Rachel, is there any way i can buy the brand guideline that you're using in this video?

[@mubeensurti]

Would you mind if I ask you, How much time it took you to create this whole brand identity including the website?

[@SigmarSommer]

How many hours did it take you to design the brand identity from the beginning till the end?

[@rachelhurry3449]

I would estimate anywhere between 100 and 350 hours :)

[@laravaz9640]

what kind of research you do to come up with the personas?

[@rachelhurry3449]

It’s usually a combination of reaching out to the existing audience with a few questions as well as educated assumptions based on experience with these types of audiences :)

[@dn3462]

What program have you used in presentation?

[@faizankazmi2000]

How do you guys get free Mockups and free designs I'm a newbie and everything seems to be out of reach for me. So to make a portfolio or branding I need mockups. Or do help me how to make these style boards to show my brand design...? Any guidance is appreciated!!!

[@GavinKohAquascaping]

Can anyone tell me what kind of art board Rachel is using? I do enjoy creating my own brand and would love to play around with ideas as Rachel did. Cheers!
