Hey Ben, the image you used at 13:25 - the part where you mentioned Chinese moveable type - that image is actually Korean. I really enjoy your presentation, as a self-taugh graphic designer this kind of material is so helpful to me. Thank you for the great work!
I have a final in a course called "History of Graphic Design" and the final is to make a timeline of the history of graphic design, from cave paintings up till the present. I am watching your video now, but had to comment how thankful I am. Thank youuu for taking the time to film this very informative video. I will send this video to my classmates! ❤️
100 % agree This has been an amazing and helpful video for the class work and has made me change my perception of the class from “man why do I have to take this class” to “wow this is so cool & I want to know more”
My brother, I cannot express to you how grateful I am for this huge amount of knowledge that you have presented in this video. Continue, my friend, what you are providing is great.
Thank you for uploading this! I am teaching myself and free resources like this make me feel like I'm actually in design school! You are so wholesome and easy to learn from too!
hey, really appreciate this video:) just one thing I want to mention is where you're explaining about Typography around 00:14:00, the example is Korean not Chinese. It's Hangeul that's our own alphabet invented by King Sejong.
😱😲👏👏👏👏Hallelujah! You are a true legend in the design community. Never thought someone would be kind enough to dedicate this much time and effort into creating such great value. Hope bigger creators consider giving this some shine. This was kind of astonishing for me since I visited your channel after a long time. The numbers will catch up Mr. Kaiser.🙏
Hey Phil! Good to see you on the channel. I am stoked you appreciated the effort it took to put together this video. It was definitely a lot of thought and planning. Thanks for the encouragement.
Thank you so much for the great content Ben. I'm actually so glad that I found this video. Totally agree about the learning of the history of graphic design. I always feel like it is one of the most crucial fundamentals of being a great graphic designer. You have to understand what you are doing & saying. Again thank you for making such a great video!
Great video, I just want to make one correction that I haven't seen others mention. When you said the German Bauhaus designers were kicked out of Germany, you switched from saying Nazis to Communist. The Nazis were not communist, they were fighting the communists in Russia and they jailed and deported socialists and communists, of which many Bauhaus members were (which is why they were persecuted).
Really loved this video. I am about to go down a research rabbit hole to learn more about the movements and designers you introduced here. I didnt go to art school when I was young because I bought into the belief that I would regret going for the rest of my life. Now I am in my late 20s and there is nothing about my teens I regret more than not choosing art school, go figures 🤷
Hey man, quick question. could I use bits of your videos/lesson for my class. I teach a graphic design course and due to the whole quarantine in NYC all schools are closed. I will love to teach the history of Graphic design since my kids don't have access to Adobe programs at home. Thank you very much.
Thank you for this presentation. As a university graduate, I missed the chance to explore graphic design and get a degree in it and even though this is a brief session on graphic design history, it takes me back when I hear a well thought out presentation.
Thank you for video! I am newly studying graphic design at TAFE (Australian term for vocational colleges) and have found it to be quite helpful and enjoyable to watch.
thank you so much for sharing that precious knowledge for free ! i'm about to start graphic design studies and this presentation + your tech advices help me so MUCH 💜 ps : i just wanted to correct something in the quote u talked about earlier in the presentation : "I see further only because I stand on the shoulders of giants" is actually from Isaac Newton from 1675 📖 voila!
At 36:50 "The Swimmer," by Italian artist Giulio d'Anna belongs to the Futurism art movement and not Cubism. Thanks for putting so much time into this but its fundamental that you review the video for mistakes.
I think the actual language of the “chinese” moveable type at 13:50 is Korean (Hangul) rather than Chinese. I recognize some shapes from when I was there last summer. Just FYI should you use this powerpoint/keynote again. Now I’ll keep watching this interesting summary. :)
@@BenGKaiser Is there a next time? Did you create an updated version? If not, you may want to research the pronunciation of many names. In addition, when you briefly mention other artists in a list, even a small image of their work would help visual learners get more out of it.
Im looking into a career as a graphic designer. Im trying to learn with out a degree or to start a degree some day. Right mow im learning and learning a lot
Great video, I enjoyed it and it was worth the effort you put in. I'm surprised it doesn't have more views I will be sharing. Btw,the "shoulders of giants" quote was by Isaac Newton, a bone fide genius.
Hi, thanks for the video! 🙏 Just started Meggs' history of graphic design and getting this overview first will definitely help me get through the book. Question: What is the brand of the cup you are sipping from in the beginning of the video?
thanks man for this video I developed immense love for graphic design in lockdown period I was looking for something like this. Kudos! love from india🙏
Just a simple correction. time 13:23. The example shown is Korean, not Chinese. Thanks. Sorry, someone already mentioned it. Thanks for sharing anyway :)
I wish you had included the significance of the Islamic design, the mosque architecture and the symmetric structure and shapes they used which revolutionized style of design.
Very well organized and informative .. Thanks 🤘 I see what you did there with the look of yours, compared to your other videos .. Cool.. Like Helvetica to Garamond .. Haha 😀
hey mr ben thank u for sharing this with us , and I have just one question , do I really need to read and know about the history of design . cuz I see that it is just to get a background of design no more .
It is up to you how deep of knowledge of your industry you would like. There are many great designers that don't know the histroy, I for one, like to know where my craft came from.
thank u s m , last question pls , do I NEED TO BE GENERAL DESIGNER OR Expert DESIGNER , LIKE I HAVE TO FOCUS IN ONE THING LIKE LOGO DESIGN OR FLYERS OR BOOK COVERS.
Hey Ben, the image you used at 13:25 - the part where you mentioned Chinese moveable type - that image is actually Korean. I really enjoy your presentation, as a self-taugh graphic designer this kind of material is so helpful to me. Thank you for the great work!
yes my sentiments exactly, I turned it back just to see those familiar hangul letters just to be sure. I enjoyed the lecture nonetheless
没错

This is a great video. I am a graphic design teacher who is an artist that never went to school for Graphic Design.I found this so helpful!!
So stoked you found this so helpful.
13:24 by the way this isn't Chinese. This image is a metal type made by middle age Koreans.
Great video, I just want to make one correction that I haven't seen others mention. When you said the German Bauhaus designers were kicked out of Germany, you switched from saying Nazis to Communist.

Tanks for the wonderful teaching I loved

20 second static image intro?? Now that's great design
Very helpful. I live in Switzerland and didn't knew how much impact the designers from this country had. Will help me a lot for my future career
Extremely helpful for an insight on design history which has always confused me, thankyou!
So stoked you found this brief history helpful!
* The quote “If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.”
its from Isaac Newton (not Thomas Edison)
No, actually is a bit older, medieval. Commonly Bernard of Chartres. But is a bit more complicated: you can Google it.
I'll study first year of graphic design this year and I might need to study design history. This video is very helpful, thank you !!!
Thank you for video! I am newly studying graphic design at TAFE (Australian term for vocational colleges) and have found it to be quite helpful and enjoyable to watch.
Thanks for this overview! Just starting out my journey into graphic design and this was a nice little dip into the history of it all.
Thanks for this!! I am changing career to graphic design and learning his story has been fascinating to me! Thanks a lot for this!
Thank you for this informative video still useful until 2023 simply because you gived us a valuable information.
thank you so much for sharing that precious knowledge for free ! i'm about to start graphic design studies and this presentation + your tech advices help me so MUCH 💜
ps : i just wanted to correct something in the quote u talked about earlier in the presentation : "I see further only because I stand on the shoulders of giants" is actually from Isaac Newton from 1675 📖 voila!
I appreciate you sharing your vast knowledge. I feel inspired!
At 36:50 "The Swimmer," by Italian artist Giulio d'Anna belongs to the Futurism art movement and not Cubism. Thanks for putting so much time into this but its fundamental that you review the video for mistakes.
Thank you so much for this Incredible Insight about Graphic Design History
Thank you, please make more videos about design history or approach, it would help many graphic design students.
Your intro was on point. I needed this.
Is there video on How to work with these
Very helpful to get an overview. Thank you so much from Germany. 🇩🇪
I think the actual language of the “chinese” moveable type at 13:50 is Korean (Hangul) rather than Chinese. I recognize some shapes from when I was there last summer. Just FYI should you use this powerpoint/keynote again. Now I’ll keep watching this interesting summary. :)
Yes, that was a mistake that has caught many eyes... thanks for the comment. I will definitely update the slide for the next time.
@@BenGKaiser Is there a next time? Did you create an updated version? If not, you may want to research the pronunciation of many names. In addition, when you briefly mention other artists in a list, even a small image of their work would help visual learners get more out of it.
Massive work done here... BRAVO 👏🏿
Thank you beng for your video, I really needed something like this
Do you have a list of recommended reading?
Great informational 👍
Thank you. This is very helpful. Also, I think 13:31 is Korean instead of Chinese.
Yes, that was my mistake. Thank you.
Is this mentorship still available?
Thank you so much my friend. This helped me a lot preparing for my final exams! :)
Im looking into a career as a graphic designer. Im trying to learn with out a degree or to start a degree some day. Right mow im learning and learning a lot

Great video, I enjoyed it and it was worth the effort you put in. I'm surprised it doesn't have more views I will be sharing. Btw,the "shoulders of giants" quote was by Isaac Newton, a bone fide genius.

Really instructive video, thank you!
Hi, really like the video, but the first cave paintings are from around 30.000 - 20.000 BC
Just a simple correction. time 13:23. The example shown is Korean, not Chinese. Thanks. Sorry, someone already mentioned it. Thanks for sharing anyway :)
Nice!
Great video. Thank you for the upload.
Glad you enjoyed it
Amazing Video

I have since closed this Facebook group. I am sorry that this is no longer available.
@@BenGKaiser No problem. Where can i learn graphic design?
Very well organized and informative .. Thanks 🤘 I see what you did there with the look of yours, compared to your other videos .. Cool.. Like Helvetica to Garamond .. Haha 😀

hey mr ben thank u for sharing this with us , and I have just one question , do I really need to read and know about the history of design . cuz I see that it is just to get a background of design no more .
It is up to you how deep of knowledge of your industry you would like. There are many great designers that don't know the histroy, I for one, like to know where my craft came from.
thank u s m , last question pls , do I NEED TO BE GENERAL DESIGNER OR Expert DESIGNER , LIKE I HAVE TO FOCUS IN ONE THING LIKE LOGO DESIGN OR FLYERS OR BOOK COVERS.
Any books in your suggestion?
Yes! Philip B Meggs "Graphic Design History is amazing - amzn.to/39mO9Uc
Thank you so much Ben, for sharing that much of Design History and Knowledge , I really need to know the roots of design for my study and practice.
So stoked you found this so helpful!
@@BenGKaiser is there any platform where I can see your design works ??
Nice
Hard to find this scroll of William Leavenworth, I love them. Where did you get this image. Thanks
Thank you so muach for video, this will help me for the interview ^^
So stoked this helped you out! What are you interviewing for?
@@BenGKaiser fine arts university graphic design department! 😊
very surprised to see "dislikes" on such an amazing video... strange !
А есть видео с русскими субтитрами?

Thank you.. I will make sure to correct this in my next history video.
Absolutely loving that brown toilet roll.
