"The real art is knowing which mistakes to keep."

This content it's so high quality, why there are so few people?

as a graphic designer student artist I found this sooo amazing

Why isn't KZfaq flooded with more content like this?!

Sonia here, from 홍익대 (Hongik University) in South Korea, one of the top schools here for Art and Design. This semester I was given a class (that I didn't ask for) outside of my knowledge base-- English for Games Graphics Design Majors. I reached out to some of the major professors before the semester started, and several responded by sending me their syllabi and course content (and interesting articles). Of course, I also did a lot of internet searching on my own so that I could get a basic understanding of (and appreciation for) GGD and teach in some context. (I am a 50-something year old woman whose gaming career started with Pong and ended with Ms. PacMan). I have found this series to be life-saving (OK, maybe not, but let's say class-saving!). SYWMG is basically my textbook! The subtitles are on-spot, so students with lower level listening abilities can read along. The graphics are helpful for visual learners (also, for teachers like me who need to connect the words to their concepts), and the length is perfect. I cannot thank you enough for creating these and putting them out there for me to find and use!

The advice at the end brought me so much comfort I can’t even explain

UI design looks sooo cool and fun to do, the UI in Persona 5 was so f*cking fantastical and eye catchy and I've always loved the HP bar shape in Kingdom Hearts

I just found this series a couple days ago and I love it so much. I want to get into the games industry but had a hard time pinpointing exactly what I'd like to do and this series gives a great overview of a bunch of different roles and advice. Thanks riot!

Three years have passed, and it is still freaking useful!

Fantastic video. I always liked topography and UI design, and your video really opened the doors for me to explore visual arts now that I have a much better understanding of it in such a familiar context. Great job, you're gonna blow up someday (hypothetically, of course).

I'm a graphic designer trying to get into the game industry. Though I found this video two years later, still gained a lot of useful knowledge from it. Thank you so much for this amazing video!

Hi, i just want to say "thank you so much for these videos". I'm a french student in a video game school and your videos are so helpfull. I'm working on my last project with my team to finalize our studies, but with the covid we are currently alone without help , so we do our best to learn and skillup for our student game. Your stuff helped me to make my decision to start without any art skills 4 years ago, and now your stuff helps me to finalize my studies and maybe start to work in this industry. So you're right, you should never be afraid about trying, if you want to get in, start working on it now, it's only time and efforts. Thank You Riot

This video is fantastic - it’s answered all my burning questions in a fun and engaging way. Thanks so much!

My favorite episode so far, thank you Riot Games.

Just wanted to say thanks for making this. As a web developer (and gamer), I found this really useful.

Thank you for uploading this information! It is easy and straight forward about the UI design. Before that, I thought that the UI designer create the interactive interface page, after that the UX designer will test on it to see if the UI is functional or not.

Great video and content. Answered a lot of questions I had and opened doors to new avenues I plan to pursue.

Thank you for taking the time to let us know what games you referenced cuz I definitely looked a few of them up and thank you for this awesome content I'm learning so much

You offer the world gold content and the algorithm gives you dirt. Very underrated channel.

Crazily informative. Love this vid. Thanks!

10:33 Good artists copy and great artists steal PICASSO ✍️

Thanks for this! I’ve been trying to get work as a UI Artist for soo long. Been getting interviews, passing art tests, but I think I failed every time I got asked ‘what I think’ UI is 😂, I don’t think I understood UI properly. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 thanks again

Great video. I don't usually comment but this was pretty solid advice.

What an amazing people! Thank you guys!!!

The drawings in this are A+ superb

I loved this - "Trying is half the battle. You should never be afraid of trying. Cause once you've done it, you've taken the biggest step. And from that point on, it's just a matter of polishing it."

searched for "Game Design Mockups" WHILE launching Valorant. Didn't Know rito is posting these kind of videos beside the vlogs i've read about TFT, LoL and WR. Thanks for your games and awesome videos!

This is so well explained even for me who just wants to know about UI in general

Love these!

These videos are gold!

Great videos, thanks for making them!

We need more content like this!!!

The UI of this video is very good. Thanks for yhe great UX i had watching the video. 😆

Thanks for this! I really needed some help with the UI on my sloth MMORPG

This is so good!

Yo what? A great game developer making free tutorials on KZfaq? That's awesome! Thanks for this video.

Loved it! Will we be getting a video to the topic of UX as well? Would love to watch it!

Tyy for sharing this great content!

I can't get the image of the Indian guy with super big eyes telling me 'go work on something, right NOW' out of my head...

Great video, wow your team rocks

One of my dreams as a teen was to be a UX/UI designer for Riot

it was amazing, thank you so much

This is so insightful! Im an artist who is trying to find their nishe in games. I think UI is looking like it!

Wonderful talk!!!

I believe that on a non techical level this videos are great. Especially for those programmers that are not familiar with design.

What a killer video!

singlehandedly made a better and higher quality video that ACTUAL Game engine companies

Super helpful content.

Super Useful thanks alot

"real art is knowing which mistakes to keep" niiice

I am currently a Junior UI/UX Designer with a video production background, and this video with all the advice at the end really inspired me to never give up on getting into my dream company - Riot! :) As an international, I know I need to take a step further than US citizens, and I know it's a long way to go. But I hope that one day I will be at Riot and come back to see my comment! To Future Me: How's working with Riot? LOL :D

Good stuff in here!

This is GOLD.

11:35 that’s the part that resonated with me the most

I love this video!

Love it!

great vid!

thanks guys

love this video

Shout outs to people who actually enjoy UI design, I absolutely hate working on that shit 🙌 but boy do I appreciate good ones made by people who care

I want to be a designer at Riot!

The only game from Riot Games that I tried to play was Valorant. After some minutes in the tutorial, I was kicked out of it and the game displayed a modal dialog with a numerical error code and no further explanation. The only option was to click the button, which caused the game to close. This was reproducible consistently. There was a list with error codes on the web pages of Riot Games, but the one that I got wasn't even listed. I found the error code in some web forums and found out that there can be a number of reasons that lead to the same code (!). The issue was probably related to their anti-cheat solution and might be caused by unsigned drivers or other software installed on the PC. I tried a number of solutions proposed by users on the internet and then gave up after some hours. I later retried with a newer version of Valorant, where the only change was that it displayed a different error code. Regarding UX, I would have expected the dialog to show a human-readable text that explains the exact cause of the issue, including the specific software that "causes" the problem (while the actual cause of the problem is the anti-cheating program misidentifying a driver as some kind of cheating software). In case the specific "suspicious" software can't be known by Valorant (which I doubt), I would have expected at least a human-readable text identifying the anti-cheat technology as the cause of the issue. While I don't see why you wouldn't display a human readable text at least in addition to the error code, the code should at least be specific and not be the same code for several possible problems. Obviously, the code should be documented on the web pages.

Riot Games, you rock!

Good artist copy Great artist steal . I have learnt a lot .

OMG, OMG, OMG, I am having an interview tomorrow for the role of UI Visual Designer, just passed the creative test! I'm so pumped because I love gaming, art, and UI, it will be my dream job.

3:46 - thank you for using stellaris. this game is so, so good ; ;

added to my favor list ！！Riot!!

This is the video for the UI designers to refer to.

thank you♥

mn oya software eka goda kaalayak use karanawa superb

I chosen move from printings graphic design to UI/UX in this year. I really anxiety to intro in game industrie. I almost 30 yo now, everything seems big to me but I want to try, I want this because I love games!

wtf finally found a great and hidden series

8:17 - Great name for an Elder God :-)

thank you for the advise, but the problem i have is that i cannot decide which specialziation i wanna take, animation, modeling, coding, level design, ui, texturing, etc.. is all interesting

Nice video

wow thanks a lot amazing

why is the dude in the bro fist tee peeling his eyes so hard

Bro Riot is helping people to become their rival someday.. i appreciate that and i am coming just wait for me

Awesome

Hi Riot :3

I don't know if that dubstep drop was sarcasm but it was fucking hilarious

Gold!!!

Where do you practice this? What tools do you use? Do you just recreate the screens on something like Figma or is there a specific tool needed?

The music intros was terribly jarring but the content is preeeemo😌👌🏼

Dear Riot Games, I want to wireframe a 2D top-down MMO (like The Escapists 1/2). Do you have any recommendation which Wireframe tool to use in that particular case (Sketcher, Figma, Balsamiq, inVision, ...)? In the end, the game should look something between the games you showed in this video min. 0:08 - 0:09 and 8:46 - 8:53. PS: Could you please tell me the names of these two games? Thx a lot, keep up the fantastic work. And thank you for this series of videos.

Their reson for animations = Responsivnes. My UX = WHY I HAVE TO WAIT AND WATCH THIS ANIMATION 1000 TIMES!!!.

I use this video to explain to my family what I do for work. LOL
