This video is really good, it was on point and very informative. I feel like I have no more doubts about UX/UI . Ty. Also check my RUclips channel and give me any suggestions to improve my UI in its content. It will be very helpful for my growth.
I have more experience in visual design than in research and breaking down problems. Because of this, I feel more drawn towards UI, but I feel like I would still do great as a UX designer once I'm able to learn the ropes and gain more skills in it. Thank you for this video!
Same with because I come from a graphic design background, but what I concluded is that they both solve problems, UX designer solves the strategy problems, and UI designer solves visual problems.
So much good information here, but this video bizarrely omits that UX and UI designers are VERY often ONE combined role, especially at product companies like Spotify. It's not just that some roles have overlap - Product Designers are generally responsible for both UX and UI, including prototyping wireframes and mockups (and sometimes even some front end development and/or user research). As someone who has spent my career as a Product Designer, I can promise this is kind of essential information to provide.
Thank you! I am looking into changing careers and UI is more of what I’m drawn to. However, in looking for open jobs just to see what the market looks like in my area, I find that most positions are titled ux/ui . I’ve yet to see just UI designer listed by itself in job listings. This is very important information to know for those who want to get into this field so they can know what they need to learn.
Where have you been all my life? I am an incredibly visual person and love thinking about how to improve flow/process/organization, I had no idea this could be a JOB.......I'm in my 30s, I'm wondering how I can go about making a career shift, really grateful for these resources and I'll keep watching and investigating your resources. Thank you!
I've looked at so many articles and googled this for so many times but was still confused. Thank you for making this 10 mins super clear and worthwhile 🙏
1:10 - 1:33 Dee turns on the lights and explains very clearly a difference that basically no one cares to give a short explanation for! Thank you so much Dee
It took me 36 years to admit to having a good sense of taste and being creative. So after your video I am thinking of becoming UI Designer. Appreciate your video!
Before watching this video, I was in confusion about where should I move, It made everything clear. And now I am able to see a path, where I must go. Thank You so much.
Awesome explanation of these career paths! Now I fully understand that I have qualifications to do the work of both UX and UI, but I’m definitely more of a UI person. Thank you for helping to make this so much clearer to me!
This was very helpful to me, thank you so much for taking your time to make this video! I am a graphic design student and I finished taking my second UX class in June. I really enjoyed taking them! I love the whole process of creating concepts and working with others! UI Design sounds really fun to work with because I love to see visual content and how the interaction works.
Great video explaining the differences in these two career paths. I'm a business analyst in a company with no UX or UI Designer, so I'm called on to do a little of both in my work. I enjoy the UI side of it more, but as an analyst, it is really important for me to understand the big picture including the user needs. I'd love to see another video that also splits out a BA role separately from these two as I'm working to get my company to see the need for these two concentrations.
Thank you for this! I've been struggling for the past few years trying to find what I wanna do next with my life now that I've finished high school. Nothing seemed to be something I liked and wanted to dedicate my time to, but then a couple of days ago my co worker recommended UI Design and that was something I've never heard of. I wanted to know more and decided to look it up. I've always been a visual person. I like looking at satisfying things and I like making cool and satisfying things. Now listening to your explenation, UI is something I wanna try.
Hi Brian, thanks for your comment, it generally depends on what kind of organisation that you're working in / for. Often this would apply to digital products such as applications, websites, and interfaces, though it can also apply to services and other practical products. We've got a detailed blog article that might be useful here: careerfoundry.com/en/blog/ux-design/the-difference-between-ux-and-ui-design-a-laymans-guide/ Hope this helps?
They're both interesting career paths, but I would feel more comfortable in UX over UI. I love collaborating and being on the ground floor of an idea, and it seems like you can't get started on the interface until you've decided on the experience you plan to have.
Hey Amanda, great point, and yes we'd agree. UX is a very 'people focused' role so you'll do great if that's of interest to you. Have you got started yet? If we can be of any assistance just let us know! And best of luck on your journey!
as an artist with an eye for design I thought for sure I'd be drawn to UI but working collaboratively and breaking down the big picture energizes me so I think UX is the way to go!
OMG thank you so much for this intro it really helped me a lot before watching the video l knew nothing at all about the UX designer and the UI designer but now l understand very well and l can say it has absoutely helped me in my choice which is go for the both UX and UI because l find them both interesting and kind of depending on each other.
Thanks, glad it was useful and helped you make an informed decision! There are definitely quite a few things that overlap from both fields, that's why it's common for companies to look for someone who can do both UX and UI design. Good luck on your journey!
Heard about UX from a stranger, sounded interesting, changing career fields so I'm looking into this as a potential path. This video definitely helped make sense of the 2.
I've completed a 33 week course with UX Design to earn a certificate and so far, you have been the best when it comes to explaining UX in short, precise, easy to understand information about UX. I'm preparing for my first big UX job interview and it all your videos have been extremely helpful as a fresh reminder of terms. Thank you, you do an amazing job with all your videos!
Hey Luis! That's great to hear, and congrats on finishing your course. Good luck with your interview, we can recommend this video for sure, also from Dee: ruclips.net/video/vu3xcQm7cEo/видео.html , we also have a great blog article that can help you prepare: careerfoundry.com/en/blog/ux-design/this-is-how-to-prepare-for-your-next-ux-design-interview/ Thanks for the feedback, we'll continue to make content like this here! Anything else you'd like to see?
@@pallavibhartia1064 @Pallavi Bhartia yes that it's correct a 33 Week Course, you can do it at your won pace. Me/Myself I did the course full time Monday to Friday 8-9 hours a day because I wanted it to complete it and it took me 3 months. And Yes I succeeded getting a job with alot of hard work (full time monday to friday search), the course give you the tools, but you must work even harder to get a job, succeed in interviews and continues work on your portfolio. I got a job in 3 months, but I applied for over 300 jobs (that I qualified) a, spoke with over 60 recruiters and had 10 actual interviews in total. I watched videos like this one, I met with mentors twice a week.
Thank you so much for your insight and expertise! As a CEO, I was a bit confused about the specific differences, but thanks to your genius examples, everything is clear now and I know who to hire for what :)
Even though I've heard about UX/UI design for a while, I never really delved into it until last week. I somehow never thought about it as a possible interest of mine and turns out I really like it. Thank you so much for this video, it was great to understand both career paths! In the end, I still haven't made up my mind though since I can see myself enjoying the tasks in both roles. Do you have any advice for people torn between the two like me?
Thank You! This was a wonderful explanation. In the states, I find that UX/UI usually go together in job descriptions. I guess employers want the employees to know both.
No, we very rarely see any requirement for this. Some basic understanding of terminology and some functions would come in handy and add extra value though, particularly when / if working with development teams, but it's by no means essential.
Thank you for this nice Video you really helped me!!!! Two small questions: 1.Do I have to be good at drawing to become a ux designer? 😂 2. Can I learn both (UX, UI) with carrierfoundry and would it benefit me or should concentrate and specialize on one area? Thank you!
Hey Lampe, hanks for reaching out! To answer your questions: 1. No you don't! 2. We offer two full programs on both UX and UI design. They're taught as two separate professions though you can go on to specialise in many areas within each industry. we'd recommend booking a call with one of our program advisor to get a better idea of which course would fit your requirements best! careerfoundry.com/en/connect/all-contact-advisor/ Hope this helps!
I Practice UX design and Ui at same time. Illustrating graphics design and photoshop editing as well you know just started small business no budget for expensive Designers. Thank you for the info. subscrubed
Thank you so much for clearing up my doubts. When I apply to UX/UI jobs, there is always mentioned HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Is it really that important for UI/UX design? if yes then where is it applied?
Thanks for sharing this video! 🤗 I'm learning self-taught type both of them(UI/UX). Sometimes I can get confused. Learning basic, rules, watching, and analyzing projects and replicas. After that I do daily practices, creating fake clients and trying problem solve. But I can't know how far can I progress, how can I create a portfolio, and based on what? Actually, I think I would learn faster if I could do a remote volunteer internship. 🤔
Hi, I just have a quick question... I’m very passionate about art and visuals, but i’m not so sure about math, physics, calculus, and such. I want to start learning how to code but I’m a little scared about the math side. Do I need physcis or calculus or trig, etc. to become a ui designer?
Hi Tanzeel, we have an article on our blog with a list of the essential UI design tools and what they are used for here: careerfoundry.com/en/blog/ui-design/essential-tools-for-ui-designers-a-beginners-guide/
This was crystal clear. Thanks. I now know what career path i want to go. UI design seems like a better option for me but i do feel that Ux design would also benefit me as well
Oh my, I am so grateful for this video. I've been studying UX Design but even though I'm loving it, I was thinking that something was missing, that I liked what I was studying but it was not 100% what I wanted. Now I'm 100% sure I should move to UI Design, it's much more in tune with how my mind works. Thank you!
@@careerfoundry Sure! since I recently decided to quit my job and learn UI UX, I'm currently looking for an updated UI UX "roadmap" / path that consist : 1. What are the fundamentals skills / UI UX Skills to cover that can help ease the learning progress 2. Additional skills / tools / knowledge that might come in handy and relevant to the latest current UI UX work demand (design trend, new tools etc) 3. Difference in area of expertise to cover and master between UI designer and UX designer (to determine which one are more suited for me) 4. Estimated time of learning and mastering the field, at least to be considered professional This is what I've been researching on lately and hopefully relatable to people who are newly interested in UI UX or just want to switch their career just like me. In short I want to see the holistic view of this career path before committing further to the study. Thank you for asking and hopefully this can give several new topic to cover.
Thank you for this! I've been struggling for the past few years trying to find what I wanna do next with my life now that I've finished high school. Nothing seemed to be something I liked and wanted to delicate my time to, but then a couple of days ago my co worker recommended UI Design and that was something I've never heard of. I wanted to know more and decided to look it up. UI is really something I wanna try.
Great video!! I have had the opportunity to be a part of UX when collaborating with the creation of an app. I must say, no matter how hard you dream up a user experience, the UI is where my heart wanted to dabble the most! Thank you for this informative video.
I work as a deaigner from 2003. Back then it wasnt ui ux just design. Good design that works. You made your research discissed it with marketing team who made their own research and you started creating a wireframe or directly the design. It depended how complex it was. I dont understand why this has beeed split up into 2 separate jobs
Hi! Yes, there are numerous job listings where the companies are looking for one person to do both. It often occurs in startups where you might need to have quite a few more responsibilities, but these can be especially useful to grow in your role or become specialized in one or the other.
Thank you so much for the explanations ❤I've been studied Graphic Design for 8years and I wanna know which one is better for me? UI or UX? Should I learn how to code?
Honestly I like both I don't mind working with people and being understanding and I have lots of patience but if I had to pick one I'll say UI I like putting the finishing touches on products
Awesome!! I would go UX Designer, because I prefer influencing ‘the Big Picture Concept,’ than merely, making it so, simiotically (to make it ‘look right/efficient/competent’!)😊! Best wishes…❤
Thannnnk you very much, I am french and don't speek english very well. I was looking for UX UI experience informations (in english) for a first cam meeting for a job. Your video help me a lot. It was accurate and easy to understand ;-)
I want to learn about both. I am most probably leaning towards UX designer. I am willing to work hard and learn about UX and little bit of UI so I get the whole picture. I am leaning towards UX because 1- I love to design, 2- I like to work with people, 3 - I like to solve problem. Thank you Dee for explaining the difference between UX and UI. This field is totally new for me. I am trying to decide which one should I choose from these two and a graphic design.
I don't seems to understand this trade UX / UI. It seems to me a redundancy ...is more like laying out things to be press on a 5" x 4" screen. I think the critical part in this trade is the programming. I'm curious & wonder why the software engineer or the tech guy who is doing the coding can't can do it & cover such subject of this trade? Why need 2 tradesman to do 1 thing? If I am the boss, I will consolidate this 2 trade & just employ the software guys to do it rather than paying extra wages.
I disagree. Before the term "User Experience was adopted there was no confusion. Designers did research, writing, usability, information architecture, and user interface design. UI Design is simply a task within overall UX Design. All of these combined are the EXPERIENCE.
Does a careerfoundry ux course teach ui as well? I'm finding that there's more places that teach ux and not ui and im not sure if sure what to do. Does studying ux lead you into ui as well?
Hi, thanks for reaching out about this, we have to separate courses covering UX and UI respectively, however we have an advanced course that teaches UI to UX designers. You can find more information on that course here: careerfoundry.com/en/courses/ui-for-ux-designers/ and if you would like to chat to a program advisor to talk over any specifics relating to our courses you can book a short call here: careerfoundry.com/en/connect/all-contact-advisor/
I build websites on the WordPress CRM for years and had no idea what UX/UI meant. I don't understand why these developers get paid so much. Most websites are cookie cutter with all that built in. Sounds like a bunch of bullchyte to me. There's only a few UX UI designs being implemented now, especially with the advent of cellphones.....bcoz there's only so much space.😕
God! Okaaaay, so I'm a Motion Graphics Designer & fluent video editor (I can also do animation). I use Adobe Premiere Pro, Illustrator & After Effects. So long as I can produce assets then does this qualify me as a UI Designer? If so, where do I look for the jobs and what salary should I be expecting? Thanks.
Nice tutorial guys .how to unlock account..if i din"t purchase.. account wil not activate...huh ??guys plzz tell i just want to know about that........
I would be drawn to UI Design as I have a background in Graphic Design. What path and/or coursework would I need to complete to become a UI Designer? Any suggestions/guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I just changed the Device from asio to SPDIF-out (soft blaster z) TNice tutorials improved the soft quality dramatically. I tNice tutorialnk tNice tutorials did the trick!
Hey! i have a degree in Graphic Design and I am looking for my first job post studies. I would like to work in ux/ui design and ask for some guidance on landing my first job. In my portfolio, i have two ux\ui projects and the rest in branding, packaging, illustration and photography. I feel that i would be comfortable doing UI design but I would really like to learn and be a part of the UX process as I am passionate about finding creative concepts to solve problems.
Hi! Question for you : I am an hyper-introvert (my social battery is super limited) so UI design seems to be a better fit. How much presenting do you do as a UI designer ? Is it significantly less than UX design ? Thank you for the content. Very informative !
Awesome, brightens up my sky :-) ....as i created my whole company by myself and so i doing all on my own i clearly can say i m more into the micronerding stuff of an UI designer.... ....since i m stumbled over this video looking for a wireframing tool in linux, - cause i see the neccesaryty of it ! .....The UX Designer and his big-picture mode actually reminds me on the job description of a copywriter ! But great video
Information is either outdated or simply incorrect. Spotify doesn’t have UI designers, nor do most big tech companies. The product manager will come up with a new feature or idea. The UX designers will create wireframes, full mock-ups, and prototypes of that idea using components created by the design systems team (think color schemes, fonts, button shapes, etc). UX designers (also called product designers) at pretty much every major tech company will both design the visual UI and optimize the overall experience for the user.
I feel like a UXer can do UI but a UIer can't do UX. Does that make sense? Because the UXer will know why and for whom and what, but the UIer is only taking the information from UX and translating it visually (which is also important work!) But if I want flexibility, I would choose UX.
Quite the opposite really. Before UX was recognized as being able to be a totally separate job from UI, it was UI designers that had to consider the experience of at least the UI portion of a project(this is the part they talk about where UX and UI overlap). UX is a new career path when compared to UI because we've realized that expanding that thinking to the entire project rather than just the experience of the UI was something that could be highly beneficial. So you see UI designers have been doing UX before we even called it UX and they still have to do it as part of their jobs, its just that now we also know that tackling the full user experience is something that often its worth having a totally separate person for. Both jobs suffer from an looking intuitively easy from a perspective of an outsider or someone starting in the field, but to be good at either one it takes education, mentorship, and a lot of experience. Also UX being new is not fully adopted and often times still mostly being placed on the shoulders of UI designers, so you're more often going to find UI designers also doing UX rather than the other way around, or that UX is handled by a group of people that includes the UI designers, rather than by a single person.
Hi, I'm fresh out of high school and want to get into the UX/UI design field. I'm not exactly sure how to get from point A to point B though. I've heard there are a lot of different ways to get the education and skillset needed but I'm not sure what would be the most helpful. Does it make more sense to get a college degree in a related field or spend that time learning the skills on my own through things like bootcamps and RUclips tutorials?
Great video and exactly what I needed to know! Quick question, who handles the animation for UI designs? I come from an animation background and I'm looking to shift my career in UI design but I also want to hold onto my animation career.
I am a graphic designer, with a BA in Design in Comunication Design. I have worked in publishing, newpaper, ad agencies and in the signage industry. I would really like to expand my skill set by adding UX or UI training. The problem I am have is I don't know where to start and where to go to get the best training. Do you have any suggestions?
As what I understood u can take a example of cameraman and editor.. cameraman is responsible for taking photos with nice background and quality i.e.can say ux and ui will be editor,who adjusts brightness,contrast ,crops image,etc..
I have a passion for being a pure UI designer myself, is it recommended to also have knowledge in UX design considering a lot of job offers want both UX/UI designers?
So I understand UX designer is like FATHER who plans necessities finances for over all career of a kid and "UI" is like mother who care and structure every moment . Yet they both contribute for the same result from different angles.
I don't know, UX Design sounds like some junior level UI Designer that doesn't get to work on the actual thing and is instead a glorified idea machine. Wouldn't a proper UI designer take care of UX inherently already? What's the fluff for? Seems redundant.
I found your descriptions of the two very enlightening. Though, I get the idea it's much more like a graphic designer compared to a production artist. The company that hires you probably wants someone with design/experience capabilities who doesn't mind doing the grunt work for someone who has already designed it. Or more to the point, if you are the one who does both, the employer wants someone who can do it all for the price of the one who does the grunt work. Is it like that? Do most UXers expect UIers to finish the work they created?

so tell me if Iam right...
UX is like html
UI is like CSS

I got a job in 3 months, but I applied for over 300 jobs (that I qualified) a, spoke with over 60 recruiters and had 10 actual interviews in total. I watched videos like this one, I met with mentors twice a week.

Would you mind sharing which course did you take? And would you recommend it?
@@Luis-qh4iw Hey please could you recommend us which course had you taken?
Thank you so much for your insight and expertise! As a CEO, I was a bit confused about the specific differences, but thanks to your genius examples, everything is clear now and I know who to hire for what :)
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the feedback too!
@@careerfoundry does a UI Designer have to study UX?
Even though I've heard about UX/UI design for a while, I never really delved into it until last week. I somehow never thought about it as a possible interest of mine and turns out I really like it. Thank you so much for this video, it was great to understand both career paths! In the end, I still haven't made up my mind though since I can see myself enjoying the tasks in both roles. Do you have any advice for people torn between the two like me?
Hi, did you figure out which one you want to do?
also curious if you figured out which?
I'm pretty sure he's doing backend development now
Many many thanks, appreciated!!
This is my best Video on youtube... She explained the difference and even made it easy for me to choose my next career path.
Thank You!
This was a wonderful explanation.
In the states, I find that UX/UI usually go together in job descriptions. I guess employers want the employees to know both.
What are key softwares to learn for this??
Does UI designer need to know any programming language to apply
No, we very rarely see any requirement for this. Some basic understanding of terminology and some functions would come in handy and add extra value though, particularly when / if working with development teams, but it's by no means essential.
Thank you for this nice Video you really helped me!!!! Two small questions:
1.Do I have to be good at drawing to become a ux designer? 😂
2. Can I learn both (UX, UI) with carrierfoundry and would it benefit me or should concentrate and specialize on one area?
Thank you!
Hey Lampe, hanks for reaching out! To answer your questions:
1. No you don't!
2. We offer two full programs on both UX and UI design. They're taught as two separate professions though you can go on to specialise in many areas within each industry. we'd recommend booking a call with one of our program advisor to get a better idea of which course would fit your requirements best! careerfoundry.com/en/connect/all-contact-advisor/ Hope this helps!
@@careerfoundry Okay Thank you soon I will do!!!!
As I can see in her eyes, she must be happy what she's doing
Hi Danish, UX is a really rewarding career path!
I Practice UX design and Ui at same time. Illustrating graphics design and photoshop editing as well you know just started small business no budget for expensive Designers.
Thank you for the info. subscrubed
Thank you so much for clearing up my doubts.
When I apply to UX/UI jobs, there is always mentioned HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Is it really that important for UI/UX design? if yes then where is it applied?
Thank you so much! This gave me a more clarity! awesome examples!
Thanks for sharing this video! 🤗 I'm learning self-taught type both of them(UI/UX). Sometimes I can get confused. Learning basic, rules, watching, and analyzing projects and replicas. After that I do daily practices, creating fake clients and trying problem solve. But I can't know how far can I progress, how can I create a portfolio, and based on what? Actually, I think I would learn faster if I could do a remote volunteer internship. 🤔
This is really great intro to UX/UI design, easly recommended to everyone who's staring in these branches. Great job!
Thanks, glad you think so! Are there any other topics you'd like us to cover in the future?
Hey everyone, I feel disappointed in myself for tNice tutorials having to be the case, but I feel the need to be honest. Life stuff got down hard
When I made tNice tutorials, there was no working Mac version. On mac, a right click is a 2 finger press on the track pad.
Hi, I just have a quick question... I’m very passionate about art and visuals, but i’m not so sure about math, physics, calculus, and such. I want to start learning how to code but I’m a little scared about the math side. Do I need physcis or calculus or trig, etc. to become a ui designer?
What tool you use for UI Design Maam?
Hi Tanzeel, we have an article on our blog with a list of the essential UI design tools and what they are used for here:
careerfoundry.com/en/blog/ui-design/essential-tools-for-ui-designers-a-beginners-guide/
Finally Finally Finally ...I understand the difference between UI design and UX desing....Thank YOu so much...
This was crystal clear. Thanks. I now know what career path i want to go. UI design seems like a better option for me but i do feel that Ux design would also benefit me as well
Oh my, I am so grateful for this video. I've been studying UX Design but even though I'm loving it, I was thinking that something was missing, that I liked what I was studying but it was not 100% what I wanted. Now I'm 100% sure I should move to UI Design, it's much more in tune with how my mind works. Thank you!
I'm hooked so far, finding Career Foundry on my journey of learning UI UX is truly a gift.
Thanks Fahri, we're glad you find our videos useful! Any other topics you'd like us to make videos about?
@@careerfoundry Sure! since I recently decided to quit my job and learn UI UX, I'm currently looking for an updated UI UX "roadmap" / path that consist :
1. What are the fundamentals skills / UI UX Skills to cover that can help ease the learning progress
2. Additional skills / tools / knowledge that might come in handy and relevant to the latest current UI UX work demand (design trend, new tools etc)
3. Difference in area of expertise to cover and master between UI designer and UX designer (to determine which one are more suited for me)
4. Estimated time of learning and mastering the field, at least to be considered professional
This is what I've been researching on lately and hopefully relatable to people who are newly interested in UI UX or just want to switch their career just like me. In short I want to see the holistic view of this career path before committing further to the study. Thank you for asking and hopefully this can give several new topic to cover.
Thank you for this!
I've been struggling for the past few years trying to find what I wanna do next with my life now that I've finished high school.
Nothing seemed to be something I liked and wanted to delicate my time to, but then a couple of days ago my co worker recommended UI Design and that was something I've never heard of. I wanted to know more and decided to look it up.
UI is really something I wanna try.
Thank you very much Dee! This video was so informative!
Great video!! I have had the opportunity to be a part of UX when collaborating with the creation of an app. I must say, no matter how hard you dream up a user experience, the UI is where my heart wanted to dabble the most! Thank you for this informative video.
I signed up for a UX/UI course after watching (and really because of) this video. Brilliant!
Thanks Lunathi, we're glad you made the choice to pursue this! Best of luck on your journey!
I work as a deaigner from 2003. Back then it wasnt ui ux just design. Good design that works. You made your research discissed it with marketing team who made their own research and you started creating a wireframe or directly the design. It depended how complex it was. I dont understand why this has beeed split up into 2 separate jobs
Can you be the 2?
Hi! Yes, there are numerous job listings where the companies are looking for one person to do both. It often occurs in startups where you might need to have quite a few more responsibilities, but these can be especially useful to grow in your role or become specialized in one or the other.
Thank you so much for the explanations ❤I've been studied Graphic Design for 8years and I wanna know which one is better for me? UI or UX? Should I learn how to code?
Honestly I like both I don't mind working with people and being understanding and I have lots of patience but if I had to pick one I'll say UI I like putting the finishing touches on products
I am more of a UI Designer. But, I also want to be like you, so I want both 😂
So a UX designer's main focus is to draw out customer requirement and needs?
Thanks for your wonderful explanation I now have a clear idea of what UX and UI are ❤❤
Awesome!! I would go UX Designer, because I prefer influencing ‘the Big Picture Concept,’ than merely, making it so, simiotically (to make it ‘look right/efficient/competent’!)😊! Best wishes…❤
Thannnnk you very much, I am french and don't speek english very well. I was looking for UX UI experience informations (in english) for a first cam meeting for a job. Your video help me a lot. It was accurate and easy to understand ;-)
tNice tutorials is how an editing software beginner tutorial is done. tNice tutorials video is a standard for all editing software tutorials
What should I do if I have strong personal qualities of both careers and really enjoy both for different reasons?
I want to learn about both. I am most probably leaning towards UX designer. I am willing to work hard and learn about UX and little bit of UI so I get the whole picture. I am leaning towards UX because 1- I love to design, 2- I like to work with people, 3 - I like to solve problem. Thank you Dee for explaining the difference between UX and UI. This field is totally new for me. I am trying to decide which one should I choose from these two and a graphic design.
I don't seems to understand this trade UX / UI. It seems to me a redundancy ...is more like laying out things to be press on a 5" x 4" screen. I think the critical part in this trade is the programming. I'm curious & wonder why the software engineer or the tech guy who is doing the coding can't can do it & cover such subject of this trade? Why need 2 tradesman to do 1 thing? If I am the boss, I will consolidate this 2 trade & just employ the software guys to do it rather than paying extra wages.
I disagree. Before the term "User Experience was adopted there was no confusion. Designers did research, writing, usability, information architecture, and user interface design. UI Design is simply a task within overall UX Design. All of these combined are the EXPERIENCE.
Does a careerfoundry ux course teach ui as well? I'm finding that there's more places that teach ux and not ui and im not sure if sure what to do. Does studying ux lead you into ui as well?
Hi, thanks for reaching out about this, we have to separate courses covering UX and UI respectively, however we have an advanced course that teaches UI to UX designers.
You can find more information on that course here: careerfoundry.com/en/courses/ui-for-ux-designers/ and if you would like to chat to a program advisor to talk over any specifics relating to our courses you can book a short call here: careerfoundry.com/en/connect/all-contact-advisor/
I build websites on the WordPress CRM for years and had no idea what UX/UI meant. I don't understand why these developers get paid so much. Most websites are cookie cutter with all that built in. Sounds like a bunch of bullchyte to me. There's only a few UX UI designs being implemented now, especially with the advent of cellphones.....bcoz there's only so much space.😕
definitely UI for me... have a very keen eye for VISUAL PRESENTATIONS
God! Okaaaay, so I'm a Motion Graphics Designer & fluent video editor (I can also do animation).
I use Adobe Premiere Pro, Illustrator & After Effects.
So long as I can produce assets then does this qualify me as a UI Designer?
If so, where do I look for the jobs and what salary should I be expecting?
Thanks.
UX...I'm a fan of big pictures!
Thank you so Much!!!!
Finally i understand the difference between UX and UI
🙏🙏🙏
This video is definitely a great experience :) Clear, simple and easy to understand.
Before WatcNice tutorialng the video - Ok, I guess it will be easy...
Thank you for this! I am definitely leaning more towards UI for sure, although I am open to learning both! They are both useful skills to have.
Nice tutorial guys .how to unlock account..if i din"t purchase.. account wil not activate...huh ??guys plzz tell i just want to know about that........
the tone and control of ur voice says "I know my sNice tutorialt!". Good stuff buddy.
I would be drawn to UI Design as I have a background in Graphic Design. What path and/or coursework would I need to complete to become a UI Designer? Any suggestions/guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I just changed the Device from asio to SPDIF-out (soft blaster z) TNice tutorials improved the soft quality dramatically. I tNice tutorialnk tNice tutorials did the trick!
Hey! i have a degree in Graphic Design and I am looking for my first job post studies. I would like to work in ux/ui design and ask for some guidance on landing my first job. In my portfolio, i have two ux\ui projects and the rest in branding, packaging, illustration and photography. I feel that i would be comfortable doing UI design but I would really like to learn and be a part of the UX process as I am passionate about finding creative concepts to solve problems.
Hi!
Question for you :
I am an hyper-introvert (my social battery is super limited) so UI design seems to be a better fit. How much presenting do you do as a UI designer ? Is it significantly less than UX design ?
Thank you for the content. Very informative !
Every Producer, DJ, soft Maker and writer will love tNice tutorials feature. Please encourage soft-soft to make tNice tutorials happen. Fingers
Awesome, brightens up my sky :-) ....as i created my whole company by myself and so i doing all on my own i clearly can say i m more into the micronerding stuff of an UI designer.... ....since i m stumbled over this video looking for a wireframing tool in linux, - cause i see the neccesaryty of it ! .....The UX Designer and his big-picture mode actually reminds me on the job description of a copywriter !
But great video
Information is either outdated or simply incorrect. Spotify doesn’t have UI designers, nor do most big tech companies.
The product manager will come up with a new feature or idea. The UX designers will create wireframes, full mock-ups, and prototypes of that idea using components created by the design systems team (think color schemes, fonts, button shapes, etc).
UX designers (also called product designers) at pretty much every major tech company will both design the visual UI and optimize the overall experience for the user.
I feel like a UXer can do UI but a UIer can't do UX. Does that make sense? Because the UXer will know why and for whom and what, but the UIer is only taking the information from UX and translating it visually (which is also important work!) But if I want flexibility, I would choose UX.
Hey! Thanks for your thoughts on this Vicky, and great to hear you're interested in UX! Have you started your journey yet?
No you are wrong ui designer can do ux but most ux designer
can't do pretty ui
Quite the opposite really. Before UX was recognized as being able to be a totally separate job from UI, it was UI designers that had to consider the experience of at least the UI portion of a project(this is the part they talk about where UX and UI overlap). UX is a new career path when compared to UI because we've realized that expanding that thinking to the entire project rather than just the experience of the UI was something that could be highly beneficial. So you see UI designers have been doing UX before we even called it UX and they still have to do it as part of their jobs, its just that now we also know that tackling the full user experience is something that often its worth having a totally separate person for. Both jobs suffer from an looking intuitively easy from a perspective of an outsider or someone starting in the field, but to be good at either one it takes education, mentorship, and a lot of experience. Also UX being new is not fully adopted and often times still mostly being placed on the shoulders of UI designers, so you're more often going to find UI designers also doing UX rather than the other way around, or that UX is handled by a group of people that includes the UI designers, rather than by a single person.
As an soft soft Mobile producer, tNice tutorials is confusing, The directwave, equalizer, and GMS I am using is different from what he is using.
Hi, I'm fresh out of high school and want to get into the UX/UI design field. I'm not exactly sure how to get from point A to point B though. I've heard there are a lot of different ways to get the education and skillset needed but I'm not sure what would be the most helpful. Does it make more sense to get a college degree in a related field or spend that time learning the skills on my own through things like bootcamps and RUclips tutorials?
Great video and exactly what I needed to know! Quick question, who handles the animation for UI designs? I come from an animation background and I'm looking to shift my career in UI design but I also want to hold onto my animation career.
I am a graphic designer, with a BA in Design in Comunication Design. I have worked in publishing, newpaper, ad agencies and in the signage industry. I would really like to expand my skill set by adding UX or UI training. The problem I am have is I don't know where to start and where to go to get the best training. Do you have any suggestions?
As what I understood u can take a example of cameraman and editor.. cameraman is responsible for taking photos with nice background and quality i.e.can say ux and ui will be editor,who adjusts brightness,contrast ,crops image,etc..

BROTHER, YOU ARE THE BEST!!! You oooh really helped me!! THANK YOU VERY
So in short, the 2 areas of responsibility in web-design are:
UX --> macrostructure
UI --> microstructure
True?
Thank you for creating tNice tutorials playlist in soft soft, just starting out in soft production and there is so much to learn
I have a passion for being a pure UI designer myself, is it recommended to also have knowledge in UX design considering a lot of job offers want both UX/UI designers?
Ux designer: let's me sure is functioning properly and works
Ui designer: LeTs MaKe IT PreEtTty!
😂🤣
Social Justice Warrior O had the sa problem. click GMS and inside the Program push app and Analog 1 TE. Hope tNice tutorials helps ✌
So I understand UX designer is like FATHER who plans necessities finances for over all career of a kid and "UI" is like mother who care and structure every moment . Yet they both contribute for the same result from different angles.
I don't know, UX Design sounds like some junior level UI Designer that doesn't get to work on the actual thing and is instead a glorified idea machine. Wouldn't a proper UI designer take care of UX inherently already? What's the fluff for? Seems redundant.
I found your descriptions of the two very enlightening. Though, I get the idea it's much more like a graphic designer compared to a production artist. The company that hires you probably wants someone with design/experience capabilities who doesn't mind doing the grunt work for someone who has already designed it. Or more to the point, if you are the one who does both, the employer wants someone who can do it all for the price of the one who does the grunt work. Is it like that? Do most UXers expect UIers to finish the work they created?
