Elliott, your work is such a great example of how powerful design can be without needing to be overly polished. I love how you mix humor with simple, bold designs-it's like you bring your personality straight into your work. Seeing you stay so true to your style has inspired me to be more real and embrace my own quirks in what I create. Thanks for showing that design can be fun and meaningful at the same time!
I mean, this guy right here, defeated imposter syndrome + procrastination + creative block & idk what else *right in front of my eyes.* I'm speechless tbh. More like inspired too.
This video truly inspired me to create simply for the joy of it, without any pressure. It’s a helpful tip for overcoming creative blocks. What usually inspires me, though, are Patterns. They have always been a huge source of inspiration for me. I remember sitting on the bathroom floor as a kid, staring at the tiny specks in the tile. If I looked long enough, those little dots would start to shift and form new shapes, almost like they were alive. That’s how I’d come up with new ideas to draw. These days, I don’t draw as much, but I’m still creating in different ways-and I’m still mesmerized by patterns everywhere I go.
Wow. as a graphic design major this is truly the first time I've felt so inspired and motivated that I want to start designing from a place of pure passion rather than obligation.Thank you so much Elliot
elliot i may be a digital artist but you actually manage to get my UNdivided attention when i'm watching youtube videos while i work. but you also make me want to draw really bad. very inspiring stuff that is also impossible not to pay attention to
i’ve been in a rough patch for months, feeling burned out as an artist while dealing with some heavy stuff, but i just wanted to say thank you for always inspiring me no matter what kind of content you put out. you’re truly an inspiration and a big reason i keep pushing forward as a designer.
i'm going into a chem/science-based profession once i graduate and this channel always reminds me of when i was once a fellow creative child growing up, i think you really bring out an imaginative side to everyone who watches you :]
Elliot!!! I haven't seen you on my feed since literally September of last year (if youtube history is anything to go by lol), so seeing you pop up again is genuinely so refreshing!! It's been so long since I saw one of your vids that I literally graduated college and have been in an extended creative slump, but seeing you do your thing's got me a little more inspired again :) and also, you killed it with these posters dude! This video legit had me grinning at several points. Great work as always!
I'm so inspired by your work. I've used you as an example in EVERY graphic design class I've taken since high school (I'm a sophomore in college now). I love a simple color palette and a catchy phrase. I have even stolen a few of your font pairings (shhhhhhh, nobody needs to know). A new laptop would be a great advantage going into my motion-media classes. :D
Inspiring work Elliot. I have been digging through yours & kels catalogs of videos after discovering the podcast, and I feel like I've reignited my passion for design work for the first time in the last few years of my 7 year career. I feel like I'm finally making breakthrough's again. This came at an amazing time to see something new from you after that. Keep on designing
Yo Elliot if your reading this that means I'm inspired and 12:39 to be honest that hasn't happened in a while so thank you for being you Becuse that's something we've almost forgoten in todys society
The thing that inspires me most as a photographer is capturing where I'm from, Darwin/ Garramilla. I plan to apply for RMIT to study arts next year and my folio will surround the beauty of Darwin suburbia. When I first moved here at thirteen, I was suffocated by the monotony and daggyness of the Top End, craving an escape to the big city. To survive, I discovered my creativity. I repositioned long days at a sweat-reeking middle school as fodder for my artistic pursuits; recreating expressions I noticed on the bus, meandering conversations I overheard, and spectacular wildlife I saw, in drawings, scripts, and designs. Eventually, I saw the beauty of living in a town defined by 80s architecture, horrendous screen-printed fishing shirts, and smothering humidity. My creativity came from finding beauty in spaces that go unnoticed in the search for more exciting things, so pretty pls give me the laptop elliot!
Big BLESSUPS in the hope that these fleeting moments of joy, when Elliot uploads, don't come so far apart. The video was pretty decent too. GDIME forever.
100 posters is crazy, if anything you inspire me Elliot. Other designers that have such solid identities are so great to look at for people still figuring out there's (aka me lol) 😅. Great job!
Contest already over? anywhoo love the video feeling inspired to do for sure. I have wanted to try multiple design styles to dig into graphic design history but this feels a bit more approachable
What inspires me in graphic design? Well, honestly, it’s a mix of caffeine-fueled chaos and the power of undo/redo. The thrill of taking a blank canvas and turning it into something that makes people say, “Wow, that’s.. okay!” keeps me going. Also, I can’t walk down the street without shaming every bad ad design I see. Billboards, posters, flyers-nothing is safe from my relentless inner critique. My friends are kinda tired of this☠. Plus, knowing that Comic Sans exists ensures I’ll always have a purpose: to make better font choices..
You better sell this BEAUTIFUL poster, Elliot. I want to wake to this BEAUTIFUL poster above my bed every day to inspire my day. I know you're cool guy, please.
I hope you know Elliot I combined all my attention for this video, I saw it on my page while drawing and threw my sketchbook across the room. Nothing but me you and my glasses slowly falling off my greasy nose. Great vid
ELIOT, i LOVE your work and after watching this i am still confused how you managed to make all of the posters so unique from the other, are you just freestyling it? or are you actually just the graphics design god🤣
OMG WOAH IS THAT MY IDEA IN THE VIDEO WHAT A SLAY, my idea submission was not my monkeys, not my circus. Love your videos ur actually my fav graphic designer.
other artists inpire me, especially those in my circles (outer/inner). ppl i dont talk to much but had a class or two with in uni years ago. seeing them create things make me want to create and its such a good feeling!! also my laptop is dying haha ha ha h a
put my designing job activities to a side just to give this video my undivided attention, best thing ever fr, now i gotta go back to work hoping my crappy laptop doesnt make illustrator crash 😔
Elliot I am going to print this video and put it in my ceiling so I see it every time I go to bed
everyone take note… THIS IS SUPPORT!!
Fun fact: you’re in a Gawx RUclips comment thread.
@@jmg9509 Oh my goodness I'm in a Gawx RUclips comment thread, I should print this.
@@skadoomosadi1411 well, if all artists are thieves, then I'll steal that idea from you.
I'm gonna take a photo of my reply in a Gawx RUclips comment thread and sell it as an NFT.
*Graphic design* IS *my Elliot*
GDIME FOREVER
Stripping myself naked and watching this on all fours to feel like a hippo in the desert meeting the first rain in years
yo?
Don't say that ever again
oh!
Trying to decide if I should just ignore this comment or share it with everyone I know
goated video. gave it my undivided attention and didn't regret a second of it.
Wow Elliot finally posting after 8 months! I wonder what finally motivated-
“This new laptop from Lenovo has a GREAT keyboard!”
lmaooooooo FAIR!!
I HAVE NOBODY TO SPEAK TO ABOUT THIS
I feel the exact same way. 😔. I have to start indoctrinating people somehow
I’m right here Indigo !!
the only reason I keep an ex contact...
I feeeeel the same way likee this is crazy
Let's all scream about it together in a circle
i love the “not my circus not my
monkeys” design the most personally
You can't spell "graphic design" without "elliot is a cool guy", welcome back dude
This is so epic please sell these as unique prints
hehehehe PLANNING ON IT
@@welliot LETSSS GOOO
@@welliot YAHOO

WE ARE SOOOOOO BACK
For now, then we gonna have to wait more 8 months for a new video 😅
This man singlehandedly made me not drop out of college
legacy… legacy…
@@welliot btw I did a presentation about your social media lmao
This video truly inspired me to create simply for the joy of it, without any pressure. It’s a helpful tip for overcoming creative blocks. What usually inspires me, though, are Patterns.
They have always been a huge source of inspiration for me. I remember sitting on the bathroom floor as a kid, staring at the tiny specks in the tile. If I looked long enough, those little dots would start to shift and form new shapes, almost like they were alive. That’s how I’d come up with new ideas to draw. These days, I don’t draw as much, but I’m still creating in different ways-and I’m still mesmerized by patterns everywhere I go.
The fact that it is so casual makes the designs so much better!
5:23 ok but the “Lorem getsum” poster is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wow. as a graphic design major this is truly the first time I've felt so inspired and motivated that I want to start designing from a place of pure passion rather than obligation.Thank you so much Elliot
elliot i may be a digital artist but you actually manage to get my UNdivided attention when i'm watching youtube videos while i work. but you also make me want to draw really bad. very inspiring stuff that is also impossible not to pay attention to
guys we've been fed, time to be motivated to design
i love this beautiful australian man
01:03 I did in fact forget the feeling of laughter for about 8 months
i’ve been in a rough patch for months, feeling burned out as an artist while dealing with some heavy stuff, but i just wanted to say thank you for always inspiring me no matter what kind of content you put out. you’re truly an inspiration and a big reason i keep pushing forward as a designer.

Elliot: "I know I get divided attention"
Me (casually cooking my dinner): ashamed

absolutely adore your videos, so glad ur back😮💨🥳🥳
Those reds, yellows, and blues are always doing something great to my eyes
thanks for the reminder to save-- I was working on a piece for a client and went all day without saving. Elliot saves the day as usual
Man that bass at 2:38 went hard
This is fantastic Elliot. Beautifully crafted and hilarious mate. And the final poster is sick
It‘s amazing what Lenovi did. They truly made the first laptop
my fellow styeheads, the wait is finally over
I'm so inspired by your work. I've used you as an example in EVERY graphic design class I've taken since high school (I'm a sophomore in college now).

LETS GOOO ELLIOT, YOUR VIDEOS ARE AMAZING
7:29 thank you. I needed that reminder

hell yeah!! ! my graphic design phase is BACK and now there's no end in sight!!!! bless you elliot !!
how did i never know this beautiful man existed these videos are incredible
god your humor each video is unmatched... i aspire to be as funny as elliot guy
Who knew an Elliot + Gawx collab would work so well? Everyone. We all did. But ty for all of your hard work and making it even better than we imagined
Yo Elliot if your reading this that means I'm inspired and 12:39 to be honest that hasn't happened in a while so thank you for being you Becuse that's something we've almost forgoten in todys society

I am genuinely proud that you did all of these in illustrator no joke
I think about you so oftend ur graphic design videos n style is just top notch. i love it.
100 posters is crazy, if anything you inspire me Elliot. Other designers that have such solid identities are so great to look at for people still figuring out there's (aka me lol) 😅. Great job!
Incredible to see how this came together from so many different sources! 🤯

Kudos to elliot for using up so much ink 🙏😭
he's finally back!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(i love the yellow third-world tint that you added in the color grading)
I’m so glad your 3D self can keep you company
Ahhh just finished my first watch through - time to go back and pause to get a better look at all 100 of these beauties 💯👌🏼
"CREATIVITY KNOWS NO BOUNDS...EXCEPT THE BORDER OF THIS PAGE" 🤣🤣🤣
ur vids always get me so creatively inspired!!! never graphic designed in my life but maybe i shall start
You better sell this BEAUTIFUL poster, Elliot. I want to wake to this BEAUTIFUL poster above my bed every day to inspire my day. I know you're cool guy, please.
I hope you know Elliot I combined all my attention for this video, I saw it on my page while drawing and threw my sketchbook across the room. Nothing but me you and my glasses slowly falling off my greasy nose. Great vid
What I find inspiring... is this video! Such cool posters, I love your style!
4:37 that's a brazilian way of saying how fool someone acted
ELIOT, i LOVE your work and after watching this i am still confused how you managed to make all of the posters so unique from the other, are you just freestyling it? or are you actually just the graphics design god🤣
Bloody love Lenovo. Runs avid like a beast 8 hours a day 5 days a week. Such an appropriate sponsor!
Gracias. Un video perfecto. Te admiramos desde Mexico. Thank you, Elliot.
THOSE COLOURS AND DESIGNS ARE GORGEOUS YOU ABSOLUTELY NAILED IT!! 😫
So happy you and Gawx got to collab. You guys are both really cool guys
genuinely i find your work inspiring, you make me want to pursue graphic design
this was an amazing way to make a sponsored video! thanks for including your clone everytime you have the chance to do it
no joke i remembered this channel earlier this week and i rewatched some of the old videos, felt so happy when i saw a new upload
I forgot how much I love Elliot's humor
I need these on my wall right now, theyre bringing so much joy. I gave myself a migraine using light mode MEEE! So good
Elliot I’m so proud of your illustrator progress
I feel like a proud parent 🥲
"I know I get divided attention" right after I unpaused the video - never felt more called out in my life
Gawx is how I found Elliot… and now I’m hooked
Talking about your creative process to someone you don’t know inspires me to create more
Yayaya I made it !!! And it’s true, I do tell people I’m in marketing because it sounds more stable 😻
elliot is like a graphic design deity to me - 100 posters is so crazy to me
man i would love a print of the 100 posters before the revisions, looked so cool
OMG WOAH IS THAT MY IDEA IN THE VIDEO WHAT A SLAY, my idea submission was not my monkeys, not my circus. Love your videos ur actually my fav graphic designer.
This is pure genius! Nice work, Elliot!
This was a great video. (I have not watched it yet) 🧟♂️
He's BACK
1:50 was peak humor
Final result is insane as always
OUR FAVORITE COOL GUY IS BACK
what a nice color graiding + my favourite elliot + waited a year + cool posters
4:54 clone high reference!!!
I don't have any words to convey the feeling I got after watching this, just amazzing
i might sound like im glazing but im not i swear when it comes to graphic design you and your works heavily inspire me!
Elliot your videos are consistently my favorite on youtube!
brooo ! we missed u here ! now lets watch .
half expected it to be a mosaic where when you put the mini-posters together in the right combination it makes the bigger poster
other artists inpire me, especially those in my circles (outer/inner). ppl i dont talk to much but had a class or two with in uni years ago. seeing them create things make me want to create and its such a good feeling!! also my laptop is dying haha ha ha h a
when elliots return to youtube is a lenovo ad
My biggest flex in life is the fact that Elliot used my phrase as a design. I don’t even need a job anymore
put my designing job activities to a side just to give this video my undivided attention, best thing ever fr, now i gotta go back to work hoping my crappy laptop doesnt make illustrator crash 😔
I absolutely love the blender elliot skit
NEW ELLIOT VIBEO RIGHT AS IM LOOKING FOR MY MANDATORY LUNCHTIME RUclips VIDEO?!?!?! THIS BOUTTA BE YUMMY YUMMY
epic video!!!! welcome back elliot, missed you
god you never miss elliot please dont die 🙏
You have a beautiful soul and a powerful mind. Everything is inspiring
The amount of effort to put the posters on the wall is insane
NEW ELLIOT VIDEO. the best notification one can receive.
I’m inspired by watching something or reading and then feeling inspired. Usually it’s good stuff I’m inspired by.
