This is my dream job… either working as a freelancer form home or at an office for a company! Just being a graphic designer! Currently i am 26 years old working at a factory, you think 26 is too old to start studiying for graphic designer? I know some school give 6 months lessons to learn every photoshop programs! I hate working at a factory doing something i don’t like… these videos motivates me also to start doing it but u am just insecure about starting to do it..
@danielalonsodesigns Жыл бұрын
Hey! I just replied to your response from another comment 🤣 But like I said, 26 is still very young! Don't compare yourself to others and don't feel the pressure to meet societies expectations. We all have different journeys. Starting from scratch is very scary and stressful. I would say to do your research first. Learning the adobe programs is a great way to start your journey! If this helps, I went to a community college first and then transferred over to a university and got my Bachelors degree. I learned the basics in school, but a lot of it I learned by watching KZfaq videos and working in the field. I would love for you to pursue design, if this is truly something you love! Best of luck! 🙌✨

Hey! That's amazing! Moving to another country is very scary, yet exciting! Congrats on the move! I got this job because of my past experience. This is actually my third full time job. My first job as a graphic designer was right after I did an internship while I was in school. It helped gain experience in the field which later helped me land my first design job. As far as how long will it take you to get a job, it really depends on your experience. I'm not sure if you already have experience in this field or if you are just starting out. Regardless of that I would say it can take a few months to land a job. But again, I can't really answer that. That will depend on you. Some tips I can give you are to network in social gatherings, put your work on social media, and work on your portfolio. I hope this helps! Good luck! Let me know if you have any other questions, always happy to help! 🙌 🔥

Hello Daniel I've been following you for a long time on youtube and really appreciate your work. The Content is amazing. However, you seem to be inconsistent on YTB and Instagram. Of course, you're swamped with work and have busy days. So for these reasons, I want to be part of this journey and would like to help you as social media manager. This will help you to save days-hours of time and effort. Please let me know when you are available to discuss this.
