THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUUUUCCCHHH🎉 I have watched tens of videos on youtube to learn about graphic design and you are the 1st one who able to explain them in a very simple but clear explanation. I don't have basic design background but eager to learn and your video is the 1st one that I can understand as a beginner without any basic knowledge. I can't thank you enough. God bless you.

[@TeamRonDi]

It’s awesome to read your message Tatiana 🫶 I’m glad you found the video easy to follow. Make sure to discover the other episodes of this graphic design principles series!

[@Ma.EdlynGrabillo]

Hi Ron. I just want to tell you that I watched all of your video regarding basic principles in graphic design and I've learned a lot. I really love how you simply explains the things so that we can understand it easily. I hope you make more videos about it. After watching your videos I have this feeling that I want to study more about graphic design and start to love doing designs. Thank you so much Ron.

[@TeamRonDi]

Hello dear, I'm glad you are learning from this series 🙌 And becoming a better graphic designer too! I'll see if I can create some new episodes!

[@mireidy4288]

Ok, now I need more graphic design tutorial. I love this videos.

[@jonathanpratama611]

Just finished these basic principles series. Thank you Ronny!

Fantastic! We will try to continue the series soon.

It's all about balance to make things visually appealing! 💙 Thanks for this amazing video, Ronnt. Looking forward to more videos from you! ✨ ^mm

[@TeamRonDi]

Happy you found it useful 😉

[@DenniskiplangatSang]

as a young designer have benefited from this video, thank you guys

[@HerbSilverman5]

Thank you for your knowledge and experience with the five videos on Basic Principles of Graphic Design I watched over the last several days. Your explanation was helpful, and I know a little more about the complexity and fun of the intricacy of graphic design. Additionally, using Canva for several years, I did not know about all of the tricks, tips, and descriptions that would be very helpful. So, I am subscribing and looking forward to more valuable topics in your videos. Thank you again.

[@TeamRonDi]

You're very welcome Herb, we will continue this series, so keep your 👀 on the channel ✨

[@davegarcia2525]

last time i commented on your recent video of principle of design and now finally im able to watch your new episode of principle of design., Thank you RonDi :D

[@TeamRonDi]

Welcome back! I hope you enjoyed this new episode 😊

[@sandrarose968]

Glad it was helpful!

[@pestcontrolrbc8860]

very comprehensive video elaborated on visual basics in very good manner. Awesome job.

[@TeamRonDi]

Thanks dear 🙏🥹

[@timdixon6664]

This is a great series of videos so thanks for making them! Quick question - do these same principles apply when making videos? I mainly make short videos with lots of static photos (animated with zooms and pans etc.) plus lots of graphics, transitions, text, etc. rather than cinematic-type productions, so it would be really great to know how to apply proper graphic design principles to these! Maybe a good topic to do another video on?

[@TeamRonDi]

The graphic design principles are general design principles that also apply to video making. That doesn't mean they should always be applied religiously, sometimes it's also good to break the rules 😉 We do have a playlist about making videos with Canva, I'll share the link here for you to check it out: bit.ly/rondiplayvideos

[@timdixon6664]

@@TeamRonDi Thanks for that! I've been through that playlist already and there's not much in there on graphic design as it applies to videos unfortunately, but still useful of course 🙂 If you could do another tutorial video specifically on that then it would be very, very useful imho 🤗

[@Lisaablogs]

You are mind blowing fantastic... Love from India

[@TeamRonDi]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@lucau1966]

I was waiting for next episode so much !

[@TeamRonDi]

Thanks Luca, there will be more each month 😊

[@stephaniemarielacandazo7753]

thank you so much for this. I actually bought your Udemy course and loving it and incorporating it with this video :)

[@TeamRonDi]

Awesome! Thank you and happy learning!

[@Skintobepretty]

Really is the course detailed am only comfortable with Canva but want to learn how to use it more

[@SegunIbitoye]

Great video Ronnie. I don't agree that the tape design was balanced but I will accept that we experience designs differently

[@TeamRonDi]

Fair enough! Asymmetrical balance is more subtle and I guess subjective 😊

[@matshagstrom9839]

Thank you for a really good explanation. One thing I’m trying to get a better understanding of is asymmetrical balance if there is a dominant aspect on one side the contralateral lesser side can carry more visual weight by being further apart. Like it is pivoting. The lesser side will the often create dominant negative space. Is this correct? I’m develop bonsai trees where asymmetry is often an important part and we are often inherently limited because while trees are not static they do not always grow as we had intended. It can take years in development so having the right visual concept to start with is important. Thank you again Mats

[@TeamRonDi]

Hey Mats, Thank you for your thoughtful comment! You’re on the right track with your understanding of asymmetrical balance. When one side has a dominant element, the opposite (lesser) side can balance it by having more visual weight through positioning-like you said, it’s almost as if it’s “pivoting” around a central point. Distance or spacing plays a big role here: placing a smaller or lighter element further away from the dominant side can create that balance. And yes, this often results in dominant negative space, which acts as a deliberate part of the composition. That empty space isn’t just “empty”-it contributes to the overall visual harmony and balance. Think of it like a seesaw: a heavier object close to the center can be balanced by a lighter one further out. The visual tension and flow between the elements make asymmetry dynamic and engaging. Hope this clarifies it a bit more! PS: super cool what you do with the bonsais 🤩

[@vashishtha001]

Wow... 👌👌👌👍

[@TeamRonDi]

Thanks for watching! 🙏

[@ITSMRMINE]

That was a wonderful explanation buddy, thanks a lot ❤❤

[@TeamRonDi]

I need to come back to this series, indeed 🤔

[@fluffypanda5405]

Thank you really understood the concept

[@TeamRonDi]

Awesome

[@RiyazShihabdeen]

Ronnie, you consistently produce fantastic videos. Extremely relevant material, always. The only thing I'd want to point out is that the mic loudness is much reduced, which makes it difficult to hear your vocals.

[@TeamRonDi]

Thanks for pointing that out to us Riyaz. We will pay attention to the gain in future videos.

[@Mu_the1]

😊 10:27

[@gr0win]

Ronnie, I ♡ your videos...I'm sure I've watched them ALL! I have a burning question. On the Pro account can I transfer ownership of a project to somonelse by inviting them to join my canva as a team member? They are also a Pro account user. I'd like them to take over and edit the project on their own Canva account. Possible?

[@TeamRonDi]

Thanks buddy for watching ALL my videos 🤯 The best way to do that, without inviting that person to your team (potentially bumping the price of your subscription) is to share the design as a template with the person.

[@Clouduniprincess]

Learned a lot of new stuff😍

[@TeamRonDi]

Awesome 🙌

Hi Stacy, sorry to hear that. Could you please let me know which country you are in? And if you ever used a free trial before?

[@estiannebodenstaff9705]

Is there any way to do keyframe animation its pretty useless without it pretty limited on creativity

[@TeamRonDi]

There’s no way to do keyframe animations as of now.

Thank you

[@TeamRonDi]

You're welcome

[@paradiseview]

Ronny, I love your videos. but please take care of the sound, as it is very low (content volume: 14.4). It should be at least between 0 and -3.

[@TeamRonDi]

Noted! We fixed that now Sorry 🙏

[@Mu_the1]

15:17 cool

[@naiseuh]

Peut être la leçon la plus complexe car les principes expliqués sont assez abstrait Merci pour les templates qui illustre chaque partie Je n'ai pas encore tout compris mais j pense qu'il faut que je m'exerce Merci Ronny pour tes vidéos et la richesse de tes explications

[@TeamRonDi]

Avec plaisir 💜
