I have more experience in visual design than in research and breaking down problems. Because of this, I feel more drawn towards UI, but I feel like I would still do great as a UX designer once I'm able to learn the ropes and gain more skills in it. Thank you for this video!

This video was extremely helpful in my decision on what route I should take. Being a more visual creative, I have been a Senior Graphic Artist and Illustrator for many years, the UI side of the house is more alluring. Your presentation really helped in defining the difference in the roles and expectations of the UX and UI designer. I have also been an Art Director, so the research and big picture mentality is a big part of my work ethic. Client interaction is also a favorite aspect to my field of work, so the overlap of UX/UI appeals to me as well. Again, thank you for the clarification and keep up the great work.

I wanted to know more and decided to look it up. I've always been a visual person. I like looking at satisfying things and I like making cool and satisfying things. Now listening to your explenation, UI is something I wanna try.

Great video explaining the differences in these two career paths. I'm a business analyst in a company with no UX or UI Designer, so I'm called on to do a little of both in my work. I enjoy the UI side of it more, but as an analyst, it is really important for me to understand the big picture including the user needs. I'd love to see another video that also splits out a BA role separately from these two as I'm working to get my company to see the need for these two concentrations.

So much good information here, but this video bizarrely omits that UX and UI designers are VERY often ONE combined role, especially at product companies like Spotify. It's not just that some roles have overlap - Product Designers are generally responsible for both UX and UI, including prototyping wireframes and mockups (and sometimes even some front end development and/or user research). As someone who has spent my career as a Product Designer, I can promise this is kind of essential information to provide.

Thank you! I am looking into changing careers and UI is more of what I’m drawn to. However, in looking for open jobs just to see what the market looks like in my area, I find that most positions are titled ux/ui . I’ve yet to see just UI designer listed by itself in job listings. This is very important information to know for those who want to get into this field so they can know what they need to learn.

I've been studying UX Design but even though I'm loving it, I was thinking that something was missing, that I liked what I was studying but it was not 100% what I wanted. Now I'm 100% sure I should move to UI Design, it's much more in tune with how my mind works. Thank you!
