You got this!

Glad it was helpful! Creating high quality hi-fi prototype takes a lot of practice. I suggest you to also check out how other apps/websites have in their design 👍

I'm so glad!

Thank you!

Thanks for watching!

Thank you for your comment!

You are very welcome

You're welcome 😊

Glad it was helpful! I'm aware that most online courses and bootcamps don't teach you how to put together a case study. It also took me a really long time to figure it out and to put this video together, because it's risky to show someone a "right" way to do it since no two projects are the same. I'm really glad that my video is helpful for you and let me know if you have more questions ❤️ Have fun with bootcamp and portfolio building!

This was the most helpful video on case study and portfolio building that I’ve watched!

Thank you so so much for your kind words! My bilibili is so trash because of the translation issue 😂 I'll make it better one day! For now, I'll focus on KZfaq and yes, more meaningful things coming in.

Did you ever end up working in UX?

SAME! I've been struggling with the end of Google as well. Aliena is a lifesaver for sure :)

You can do it!

@@AlienaCai Thx! Never saw this reply, sorry. But I legit have 12 days left before I'm done and I'm using your vids now more than ever!!

Thank you 🥰🥰

@@AlienaCai How do do use emojis in Figma? I tried ctrl+ command+ space, it shows the emoji but it doesn't appear :'(, it only appears in the layout page :(

You are so welcome

I'm so glad!

You’re very welcome! I’m very happy for you 🥰🥰

omg sameeee. I’m on the 5th course.

@@sayoa.2532 wow! congrats!! you're so close to the finish line!!

Thank you!

Thanks for the comment 😄

Ahaha I didn't recall planning to have humor when making this video. I'm so glad you like it 😄

Wow, thank you!

Hey there, for each case study, there's no need to showcase the process chronologically and there's also no need to showcase every step. With that being said, it's helpful to showcase the important steps that drive important design decisions or iterations. If you are proud of the storyboards and it's something that helped to make the design decision, then include it. Otherwise there's no need 👍

Thanks for the comment! I've noted down your suggestion 😊

Maybe check out www.uxtweak.com/ I actually did all my usability studies with my friends/roommates and it worked since my products don't have extremely specific audience. If you want to become a UX designer, you don't have to focus too much on user testing. In fact the project that got me a job actually doesn't have any user testing because that startup I worked with didn't have the resource to do so, so I went ahead and presented how I made design decisions without direct user feedbcak. If you are taking courses, please do a user testing, and it's fine to do it with your friends 😄

go ahead! 😀😀

These are great questions and I've note these down and might make a video on it. To answer your questions: 1) I don't use any pre-made wireframes component for wireframing. It's a personal choice, simply because I think the purpose of wireframing is to sketch out ideas asap and I don't try to make a wireframe look great. Hence, all I use are rectangles, circles, and text boxes with different shades of grey. 2) I make my design system when there's no pre-made design system (e.g., when I'm working on a personal project and when a startup don't have a design system yet.) However, I would sometimes borrow assets from bigger design systems, especially icons, to put into my own design system to save time. / I would stick to a larger design system only if I'm working for that company. E.g., if I'm working for Airbnb, I will use their design system from head to toe. But if I'm just building a personal project, I'm not going to make my app looks like another airbnb. That's a lot of words and I hope it kinda answers your questions 😊😊

Thank you Kalvin! Squarespace's learning curve is not bad and it's great for first UX portfolio. However, I would also recommend to check out Webflow. Webflow is more advanced but might fit Senior designers need better.

This is a great great great question, I have to be honest with you that for new UXers, your first few projects may not be implemented or measured at all, so you have to estimate the number (that's fine to do) to emphasize your biggest impact/strength. Or else, you can leave out numbers and put quote from users (or people who participated in your user study). The idea is to emphasize that your design solved a problem/ led to an impact.

@@AlienaCai I appreciate you!

Figma is a design tool where you can visualize some ideas. To find design inspirations, I still suggest you to look at different websites and apps or go on dribbble or Behance, two design platforms :)

Figma is just fine for prototyping too.

thank you so much

I would suggest you to start building your portfolio after you finished the first project. That will help you to practice how to piece everything together and present it as a story 🙌 After you finish the course and look back to the portfolio you prepared now, you will probably hate it, but in a good way, because your design sense/skill will increase and that's the time where you can do another iteration on your first project both on its design and on the portfolio.

@@AlienaCai Thank You, I appreciate it!

If you don't have work experience, then highlight education and projects on resume 👍 Check out this channel too: wonsulting

It's at alienadesign.squarespace.com/ and the password is ilovedesign (I'm on a free trial so the website may be expiring soon)

That’s weird😥 I was using the newest version actually. I suggest you to look up squarespace tutorial on KZfaq or directly ask their help team.

@@AlienaCai Hey. Idk how my boyfriend could figure it out. So it's working now. Thanks anyway :)

You can view it now at alienadesign.squarespace.com/ with password ilovedesign (I didn't pay for the domain so this will expire in a few days)

@@AlienaCai okay I see thank you !!!

Well it has to be your original project 😄

In Figma community page search mobile mock-up. Many explained it in the file. Usually you need to play around with where to place the layer of your design, or simply add a rounded corner to your design layer.

No particular topic comes to mind, but try to identify a problem with existing products you use every day and then try to solve it. For example, you might find that choosing what video to watch on KZfaq is a problem, and that can be a UX project to take on.

My personal suggestion is that you have to choose a topic in which you are interested and you like to do that, like camping, shopping, workout, or anything you would like to do,

The design is done on Figma and the web is built on Squarespace. I recommend checking out Figma channel on KZfaq and checking out the Google UX course www.coursera.org/professional-certificates/google-ux-design?ranMID=40328&ranEAID=vgdR6kEGfog&ranSiteID=vgdR6kEGfog-ceSiuPAdulLi368lrKAmTQ&siteID=vgdR6kEGfog-ceSiuPAdulLi368lrKAmTQ&R6kEGfog

Taking the Google UX Course is probably a good idea, and the Figma channel can also help as Aliena suggested. I'd also recommend Dev Ed on KZfaq for Figma.

Not really. I'm on a free trial while making this video. You still need to pay if you want it to be published on a customized domain :(

@@AlienaCai is there any way where we can make and domain portfolio website for free. OR any other way to create portfolio for free?

@@durgeshchore8665 I'm not sure, but Heroku could be an option worth considering, however it might require some coding knowledge. I've used it during my Full-Stack Web Development Course. Personally I'm considering doing my own website, but Heroku definitely could be a viable option for a portfolio. Perhaps Wix could also be worth considering, especially if you do not have prior coding knowledge. It also seems to be a viable option. Best of luck! If you have any questions, let me know, and I'll try and help when I get time.

Oh no I forgottttt
