Thanks my Guy
This video is so inspiring and as a designer myself I have been considering producing similar videos myself. But kind of lacked the drive to do it. Really appreciate your wonderful design work and the way you work.😊
I appreciate you Terence, and I say you should start putting out those amazing ideas. Quick one: what’s your thin design?
@@paulzana Not quite sure what you mean by "thin design".😲 I just sketch out ideas in pencil or natural media of various kinds, then scan them into my computer and work the ideas up into finished artwork using either Freehand or Adobe Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop depending on the effect I want. I have twitter account which has a lot of examples of my work. More recently I have been exploring 3D artwork and rendering using the free 3D application called Blender.😊 Anyway I appreciate your reply and I'll keep watching your brilliant videos here on RUclips. I'm also experimenting with animation. Can see some examples on my RUclips channel. Cheers for now.😊
My bad for the lag in response... Good to meet you pearl. Share with me your twitter would love to follow some your visuals!
Plus... I admire you doing more than one thing! Its safer that way.
Watching you using Figma, reminds my first days on Web Design's class days
That’s inspiring - you do d’web dou
Great video thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
awsome !
Well said buddy... Thanks. 😁
I love that sticker on laptop. Simplifies what i do. Sorry but i am going to have to "redesign" it and use it on my laptop 😂
Surething pearl goahead to have fun with it!
That shoe logo turned out amazing! 😊 I just posted a day in the life of a graphic designer video as well. My video needs more Rick and Morty though
Thanks pearl, will have to check it out!
This video was amazing! Your creativity was shown throughout the entire video(:
By the way, which software do you use to edit your logo's?
And if there are other softwares for grafic design associate you recommend I'd be thankful to know:)
Glad you dig the workflow... About the software: I actually find myself jumping between... illustrator, Figma and Photoshop "illustrator mainly for logos"
@@paulzana Oh nice! Thanks a lot(:

Great job.

Why I don't use a mouse:
I used to use it till I started working on the move, being in places, working on thighs :-) A mouse couldn't keep up...
I guess I got used to it!
@@paulzana I see 😉

Which platforms you use to get graphic design jobs?
I don’t use any platforms in my business... In a contrary I focus the effort on Instagram, RUclips and good create relation - securing recommendations!
@@paulzana how do you earn bro?
Where are you at bali?
Kampala, Man
Where do you find the jobs, which platforms?
Hi man, this is a great question... when it comes to jobs there is no special platform I use, it’s just me and instagram per se! To add a thought on how this works for - I focus more on personal projects, not because I don’t have client work but self projects best represents my way of thinking! Do this for 90 days and come back to me that’s November for feedback
Paul Zana thanks for answer. 👋🏼
Omg, are you Ugandan too? Lol, I'm not sure but I don't think any other places have Safe Boda.
*Yep... I’m a proud Ugandan... born and lives in Kampala. Nice to meet you!
