So beautiful! ^^
👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
Cool thanks beautyful
i am so inspired by this decision and will be in your dm’s soon asking about it lol
I'm on the lookout hahah
siiighhh i think i'm also coming to this realization. i love creating but idk why i lose all motivation when it comes to client work :(
Very creative!
Useful
i feel like ths is the video that so many of us need to hear. i remember starting design feeling so excited to work with clients and having my soul crushed by constant revisions, low pay, and uneducated opinions on "what looks good." quickly i realized that taking on multiple of these projects at once to support myself was not very fun at all and lacked the experimentation, intuition, and collaboration that i do enjoy. i've become much more selective with clients now and enjoy working contracted for larger companies + extended time periods where i can put my skills into a larger collective project and keep my artistic and nuianced side of design to myself to enjoy. i never liked doing logos, i'm not good at illustrating, and i'm still a very successful designer in many regards; even if i thought that's what you had to be to make it in this industry. good for you paola for not ignoring your true passion and making it work! there really is space for EVERYONE.
this comment. omg. you get it! everything you've said makes so much sense. and it's exciting to move forward knowing what you want and not feel the guilt of saying no. sometimes you need to! I have found my niche in content creation and now in a design direction and from now on will be taking clients accordingly, but first I'm laying the ground work. and I'm excited to do it! I'm so happy you've found your path as well, working with companies is just so much more secure sometimes. we got this!!
Sister are you freelancer?
Thanks, a bank asked me to write a proposal to their mail and add a link to my portfolio, I don't really know how to go about that
Hey paola , really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with more Quality Editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail and also help you with the overall youtube strategy and growth ! Pls let me know what do you think ?
Hey Hi Paola how are you i would love to get some information about your freelancing i also sent you a message on Instagram
Im shocked to hear someone else say they don't want to do client work. I quickly realized it wasn't for me. I love brand design, I love designing as a whole but client work specifically I just don't necessarily enjoy.
I've been doing it for years and I'm finally over it! I think there are so many spaces you can fit as a designer and not everyone needs to work with clients directly. Good for you figuring it out right away!
Superb ideas! How do you do those 4 in 1 squares that the object dont go outside of the frame?
clipping mask!
@@PaolaKassa thank yuou
0:55 I have been feeling the same way about things lately😭 very inspired finally.
You might take a look at my book, Advanced Typography, published by Bloomsbury.
very helpful thanks so much
Wow. I wish I could just not take clients and not have a full-time design job and still be able to live and pay my bills. I wish I could just dedicate all my time to my personal website and portfolio and ideas. This is not a realistic image of what being a graphic designer is if you have to support yourself in the real world. Most designers I know irl work a full-time design job Mon-Fri and do freelance on their off time just to make ends meet. Also design, by definition, is not about your own ideas or feelings. It's about purposeful and effective visual communication to an audience. Usually on behalf of someone else. Zero percent of my design job is about doing what I want.
woooo I’m sorry you’re not happy it seems! I’m not saying do what I do, just that when you want to make a change, listen to your gut. I’ve been working as a designer for years now so it’s time for a change! I live in the real world and support myself too, no reason to be upset xo
uhh. design is about the designer's ideas. that's why they're hired. and graphic design isn't so cut and dry like yoy seem to be implying. it can be personal and informative, and still impactful
this mindset change is eeeeeeverything. I'm so excited for you
thank you! Let’s see where it takes me🤍
Love love love. Making work work for you is so important and yesssss to it all clicking once you’re on the right track. Yay. ❤
omg stop, I have been considering pivoting from client work for so long and this just feels like a sign (me choosing to see the littlest of things as signs 😂), I don’t find joy in it as I used to and I think that’s part of getting more experience tbh. I just don’t want to design for other people anymore, or have to limit myself in my creations. There are a lot of ways we can have a career as brand and web designers that don’t include 1:1 or the final consumer and that’s what I’ll start focusing on this quarter. As always, crazy how much I relate to you and your content! edit: lol and now youre talking about taking things as signs, IS THAT ANOTHER SIGN HAHAHA
WE ARE THE SAME hahaha but seriously if it feels right, at least follow that feeling and try it out!☺️
I'm a novice graphic designer, and right now, I'm trying to figure out the path towards a stable, long-term career. It's been really overwhelming because of just how much there is to do, and sometimes I can't help but worry about what space there may or may not be in the community for me because there are so many good designers with way more experience I have out there, but your channel keeps me inspired and reminds me of what I want for myself.
I’m so glad! There is always space in our field especially when we lift each other up☺️
for the yt algo thanks Paola <3
its great to hear that everything is clicking for you Paola Thanks for the inspiration <3

I have recently finished my bachelor's degree and my grades are actually quite good, but for some reason I am absolutely lost with my portfolio and I don't even feel confident in the projects I have good grades in... Any tips or help how I can feel more confident in my work? I am truly lost
Very good ideas. Thank you.
Ma'am I have too many questions to ask on making graphic design portfolio. How do I approach you online directly? Coz every videos in youtube they give different advices do not know which one to believe.
Bro all I need to know is what website!
i rly want to work in the design studio field it seem rly interesting. anyone have an experience in that?
Thinking with Type and Design Elements were assigned textbooks for my graphic design classes in university, highly recommend!!
I have a question to you ma'am I design visiting cards for clients. Should i include my visiting cards work in portfolio? Coz my friend who is a graphic designer and other graphic designers tell me never to include my visiting card design works. I do not know who to believe different videos tell different advices i don't know which one to believe is authentic creating portfolio advice. And i have not studied Adobe illustrator graphic design from school or university I just purchased the book and completely learnt from the book and became a Graphic designer. I can show you my design works.
Thank you for an helpful video! Question: For example I would like to do a magazine design, so what should I do with the magazine content? I can come up with photos related to magazine topics but have no idea about writing content. Should I use generator or write it myself? Let’s say it’s a fashion magazine.
You can use a word generator or even placeholder text! No need to become a writer just for a design project haha☺️
Can you help me to learn I will pay you for that
Lmao gurl, I understood everything! No words needed! I gotchu!
How do you afford to live in bondi? I make $150k a year and cant afford it.
I don’t live in bondi lol
Where can I find many typefaces and etc. for free? I currently use Adobe FOnts with my student subscription but I'm wondering if there are any other platforms for finding good fonts?
this is so helpful! thank you sm <3
thanks for tips 😍
I’m starting graphic design school this fall and your videos have been so helpful ❤ thank you!!
