and the first part of today's video is the advantage over ai

and in case you're wondering why my voice is like this

and where i've been i'll talk about

that later in the video you've probably heard it a thousand

times by now ai is coming for your cushy design job

you see the incredible designs it generates in seconds the interfaces it mocks up in minutes

and the voice inside your head tells you

that you're going to be replaced

and let's be honest here it's not entirely wrong is it i mean for a certain kind of designer anyway

but here's what you might have missed

and something i missed for a long time too for every skill

that ai can do there are deeper human abilities

that it cannot even get close to we're not just yet anyway these are the skills

that great designers have been using for decades to create work

that connects that persuades and

that actually matters the other end first let's be clear ai

is a beast in of itself it gives us speed volume

and a level of consistency no human can actually possibly match

it's an amazing brainstorming partner it spits out hundreds of concepts

and visual directions faster than you can finish your iced macchiato it can kill tedious repetitive tasks

that used to drain our will to live you know resizing

a million assets basic color tweaks you name it on that front it does it

that is all true

and any designer who refuses to learn the new workflows are going to get left behind in the dust

but that's where the power ends

and your advantage begins think of it this way ai is an engine

but there's no one really in the driver's seat it can generate options

but it has no opinion it can mimic patterns but it has no real fundamental purpose or crux

the mistake is thinking that design is merely the act of production of producing something

when it's not design is the act of discernment and in that arena ai is completely out of its league

so let's break down the skills

that give you the edge these are the abilities ai can't just copy

and they're your new currency in this creative modern future world the first

and maybe the most important unfair advantage you have is taste but it goes probably deeper than you think

an ai can generate a thousand technically good designs you can follow entry -level rules of composition color theory

and layout perfectly not always perfectly but it cannot tell you

which of these feels right or

which one of these works it has no way of understanding

that subtle almost invisible line between a design that is merely correct

and one that is truly compelling

and functional now taste isn't some kind of just mystical ability

that you're born with it is a collection of experience as a graphic designer

and as you move through this world of design

it's built from watching real people get frustrated with an app you designed

it's built from launching a campaign

that completely flopped where you spent weeks figuring out why it's

the muscle you build after hundreds of clients call you

when you finally learn to translate make it better into a

smart design direction ai has none of this it has no memory

or fighting for good ideas in an email thread or the intuition

that comes from seeing your work fail in the real world it's a machine trained on the past so

while it can create an excellent remix of what's been done before it does struggle to create something genuinely new

and contextually perfect for right now novel and new being the operative words here

and as ai floods the market with generic good enough aesthetics

what people are calling ai slop the value of genuine human curated taste skyrockets your ability to discern to choose

and to look at 100 options

and say hey this is the one based on a deep understanding of the brand target audience

and the culture that is a skill no machine can automate it's your first

and most powerful advantage so next up is the power of deep critique

and iterating with intent because it sounds like a mouthful

but let's get into it an ai can generate variations

but a human designer iterates with actual real memory

when we refine a concept every change is built on the last one we remember what works what didn't

and most importantly why that's why does actually compound

and then that leads to a final product that is more coherent

and more smart

while modern ai tools are getting better at remembering context in

a single conversation they don't truly understand the intent behind your

choices they're just kind of responding to new inputs really

and this brings us to critique a human's critique goes way beyond the surface we can look at our design

and analyze how its hierarchy the typography of negative space all work together to achieve a specific goal

and we also ask questions such as, does this actually guide the user's eye where we want it to go?

Does this font actually truly feel like the brand's voice?

Is this call to action clear enough to get someone to buy this thing?

An AI can't ask these questions with real understanding.

Its feedback is based on data patterns alone.

They can tell you if your color contrast meets accessibility standards, which is helpful, sure, but it cannot tell you if your color palette is going to resonate with

that specific subculture that you're trying to target with your design work.

that requires a human perspective i .e your brain

and by the way if you are finding this breakdown valuable

and you want to go deeper on the future proofing of

your career i put together an entire playlist for designers in

this age of ai it's all about staying ahead of the curve

and that link is in the top right corner now here's a massive advantage

that almost any algorithm will find impossible to replicate we're talking about context politics

and also people

so great design design has always been born from navigating a

complex messy web of human factors just think about it for

a second how many times has the best design on paper being killed

because it doesn't really fit the true agenda of the brief

how often have you had to read the room in the presentation

and completely change your pitch on the fly this is the world of human dynamics

and AI isn't built for it it cannot model the subtle

power structures in a client's office it cannot grab a coffee

with head of marketing to truly understand their fears about a

project these aren't soft skills as such they are really core

strategic competencies ai also lacks a true business context it doesn't know about the budget cuts

that just happened the internal rivalries

or the unwritten rules of a company culture a human designer

100

learns to work within these constraints turning them into creative challenges

101

instead of just roadblocks we have the emotional intelligence to give tough feedback without crushing someone's spirits

102

and the storytelling skills to frame a design so

103

that everyone in the room gets excited

104

and on board as the execution of design gets cheaper

105

and also faster with ai your ability to communicate the why becomes one of your most valuable asset skills

106

now that brings us to the final and arguably one of the most important

107

or powerful advantages you can have and

108

that is strategic problem framing ai is an incredible answer engine

109

but it can't tell you

110

if you're asking the right questions the most valuable designers are

111

the ones being paid to help to find the problem in the first place

112

and your role is evolving from make this design get accepted

113

by your client to what should we even be building

114

and why this requires a strategic mind

115

and something i keep coming back to on this channel

116

and that's because

117

if you are serious about design this is going to be

118

a huge part of your future it means doing the research

119

to find unmet user needs analyzing the market for a gap somewhere in there

120

and working with products

121

and business leaders to set a vision a true bona fide

122

vision AI can support this work sure it can summarize research data

123

or transcribe interviews but it cannot lead the charge

124

that is your job

125

and problem framing is about empathy feeling the weight of a user's frustration it's about navigating the ambiguity

126

when no one knows the right way forward

127

and it's also about having the business sense to connect a design choice directly to a business goal

128

or goals many companies are realizing their biggest risk right now

129

is around building the wrong thing entirely the designer who can set up

130

and help to find the right problems to solve becomes indispensable

131

so is ai actually coming for your job well in some cases yes

132

and definitely live designers who you know they're just doing repetitive tasks mindless non -thinking design

133

but if you are someone who leans into

134

that unique human side of design design thinking the strategy and the psychology then you are going to become

135

less replaceable you're going to have more of an advantage over ai and other designers

136

let's say there are 1000 beginner graphic designers all with an eagerness

137

and a passion to excel in this industry if you understand

138

and start to develop the theory of emotion as i'm about

139

to explain you will likely be in a one to two

140

percent group of those first 1000 designers who actually understand this stuff

141

and thus you're going to be ahead of the game from

142

the very beginning here are two designs take a look at these designs

143

and ask yourself which design feels more energetic which one seems more peaceful

144

and more relaxing now it should be really obvious right

145

and the only reason it is obvious is

146

because the creators of these designs understood the theory of emotion

147

so this floral hello design is obviously more peaceful and more calm

148

but can you actually determine why from a design point of view.

149

firstly the colors used are desaturated and muted washed out pastel

150

and desaturated colors automatically appear more calming contrast

151

that with the vibrant lime green on the other design

152

which is energetic also on this floral design we have well flowers

153

and nature this kind of imagery is automatically peaceful and calming

154

because it triggers the nature side of emotion there is a

155

lot of open white space on this design as well

156

which allows everything to breathe and to have peace on the design itself

157

and then also we have that freehand cursive fonts on the word hello

158

and this is very organic and very personal and

159

that just adds to the more peaceful nature and

160

so as you can see each aspect of this design can be linked back to emotion in some way shape

161

or form if it's a typography the color the imagery whatever it is it's all emotional based

162

this process has three simple steps

163

and the first step is to identify the emotions you want to evoke on your design

164

and to do this just simply take your design brief

165

and then gauge what emotions you want the audience to feel from design brief

166

and to show you how

167

that works let's take this video game poster design brief as

168

an example a lot of designers will look at this and they're

169

and miss the crucial key points on this brief the emotions notice in the brief it says excitement

170

and also fomo

171

or fear of missing out these two golden nuggets of information

172

are what we're looking for in this first step next step write down somewhere four categories of color typography imagery

173

and layouts these are the main essential building blocks of your design

174

or any design for matter the third step is to write

175

down ways you can express the emotions within those four categories

176

so for color we might want to use reds

177

or possibly vibrant bold colors this is because these colors are hard -hitting

178

and exciting which leads back to

179

that emotion of excitement for typography we might want to go with futuristic bold sans serifs

180

and that's again leading back to excitement

181

when it comes to imagery we could maybe include a countdown timer on the poster

182

and this would make the audience feel like they don't have much time left to buy the game

183

or to wait for it to launch.

184

Or we could even make the poster look like it's a really crowded virtual world of many different players.

185

See it's simply about linking emotion to design choices

186

and yes you will need to learn about the basics of things like different typefaces and how they evoke different psychological attributes.

187

But stuff like that does come with experience.

188

The emotion is the key factor

189

or fabric of a design however there is a trick i've got on my sleeve

190

that you will want to see now this is chat sonic it's kind of like chat gpt

191

but some would say it's better and hashtag not sponsored it could bring up articles

192

and information all the way up to the present day something chat gpt cannot do

193

but for today's video here's the trick

194

that you can use for any design project using this thing now here i'm explaining to the ai

195

that i'm working on a poster design project for an electrical gadget store

196

and like we saw in today's video i want to leverage emotion within those four categories of color typography imagery

197

and layout a chat sonic is free by the way

198

and as you can see here it gives us some guidelines

199

for the design in regard to those four categories now importantly as you can see it explains every single suggestion

200

and it backs it up with some theory this is great for those who want to learn

201

but also it gives you ammunition in any design pitch to

202

a client it allows you to back up your reasoning

203

and your design choices now i can take things a step further

204

and i can ask it to expand on the typography section

205

and suggest some actual typefaces for my poster design

206

and with these results coming in we can see some suggestions for headlines

207

and key messages and then some typeface suggestions for the body text

208

and so on these suggestions should be considered

209

and thought over by the designer rather than just blindly following

210

them also at the bottom here chat sonic has other further suggestions

211

that you might want to explore for example some color palette suggestions yeah this tool is really cool

212

and again i'm not sponsored by this i just think it's a really cool thing to use

213

when working on design projects let's reverse engineer a design using

214

that three step system we looked at earlier and this is just

215

so you're very crystal clear on how to use it on next project

216

so we have a branding project by vadim karazhan and

217

that is netrunner now i do love this branding project

218

and before we reverse engineer it as i briefly scroll through

219

the project think about everything we spoke about in today's video

220

in regard to emotion this is what professional graphic design is

221

all about consider what emotions this design might want to leverage

222

and evoke and why does it want to do that how has a designer made sure this design does leverage emotion

223

but yeah this branding project is really neat

224

and let's just scroll back up to the top

225

and actually talk about it so we know the first category is color

226

but what do you get from the color palette in terms of emotion on this design

227

so it's mainly blue purple and a kind of black and

228

when considering emotion typically what do these colors represent well blues

229

and purples do represent a lot of peace calmness and trust

230

and that makes a whole lot of sense when we read here

231

that the brand deals with healthcare insurance

232

and biotech industry sectors the emotions of peace calmness

233

and trust are perfect reflections needed in those niches the color palette here isn't a fluke

234

or just a random choice that should be obvious

235

but hey let's move on to typography

236

which might be a bit more complicated looking at the typeface what can we notice here in terms of emotion

237

for me firstly it's the recognition that this is a sans -serif font

238

and it's an ultra sleek sans -serif at

239

that this helps evoke emotions of modernity which plays into the biotech industry

240

but also it's quite clean which helps point to healthcare as well

241

furthermore the logo is seen in lowercase letters the designer could have easily used uppercase here

242

but the use of lowercase letters is more informal and more soft

243

which does help evoke trust again that's great for the insurance

244

industry sector also notice how the clean curves on the typeface mimic the style of the logo

245

and speaking of the logo

246

if we look down here we can see the logo is slanted it's almost italic

247

and also it's split up which according to the designer evokes a sense of speed and movement

248

that plays into the modern approach of this logo in terms of layouts we have a very clean

249

and a very minimal layout and this helps reinforce the other emotional connotations we mentioned earlier

250

and when looking at the imagery it plays right into the modern

251

and the cutting edge industry sectors so yeah it's not a fluke

252

that this brand new project is a success

253

and it works well the designer has used the theory of emotion to make design choices

254

and has excelled in their role of brand visionary.

255

I'm about to show you the websites

256

that will give you an unfair advantage as a graphic designer

257

so get that mouse ready to click and bookmark these hidden gems.

258

The first site is called Product Hunt

259

and it will keep you updated with the latest design tools exactly on the day they launch

260

and as you can see here there are the design tools

261

and products launching today as of making this video now you

262

can see how many likes each one has as well as

263

browse over the comments to see what the design community is thinking about each product

264

but importantly check this out at the top we can browse the best products

265

and skip into certain categories so perhaps simply graphic design tools

266

and the cool thing here is that we can filter the results

267

if we want to but crucially we can arrange them from top rated

268

so now we can see the relevant icons here showing just how acclaimed each tool is

269

and this list just goes on and on and on guys

270

and so it really does keep you informed in the design community

271

and later in the video i'm going to show you what

272

i think is the best ever design related website i've ever found i found it

273

while making this video next however something i have dreamed about for a long time in my life as designer

274

and that is filtering out typefaces based on psychology the cool thing is

275

that the filter here is in real time

276

and you don't need to use every filter option in the list i find this very quick

277

and it does narrow down the selection really well and

278

if you can't find the font you want it does give

279

you a good idea of the kind of direction you want

280

to be heading in also you can play with this screen ui settings right here

281

and they also have a list of the best fonts

282

and the newest ones or the freshest ones shall i say

283

but yeah for me the psychology filter really is neat

284

and it does work quite well too we're now going to

285

take a look at what is coined as the google for color schemes

286

this is another tool that lets you narrow down a design choice in lightning speed

287

and for example you might be working on a project for an insurance company

288

so let's drop that into this search

289

and yeah we immediately get some good results what i like here is

290

that the cohesion that shows us that the pattern

291

or trends of blues and pastel colors does run throughout the insurance company niche

292

but we can click one result and then simply click to copy the hex code.

293

The downside here is that you need to copy each individual color instead of the entire group.

294

You can always save the image or just screenshot it

295

but this is a good way to get a read on the industry standards

296

and the norms in terms of color psychology and color schemes that you're working in right now.

297

but next up we have a really in -depth icon library

298

from streamline hq now this is a freemium service meaning we have a bunch of free icon sets

299

but also some that are exclusive to paid users

300

but there are a ton of free icons to snag here

301

and they are all quite good quality as well the paint sets are obviously larger

302

and are labeled as pro you can also browse the newest icon releases

303

and other categories as well at the very top overall it's

304

a resource you probably want bookmark as like many of the

305

websites in today's video it will save you time now the next website is completely free

306

and it's a great glimpse

307

and insight into the most professional depths of the design world

308

with brand book you do need to sign up with your email

309

but it is completely free you can see the latest brand books

310

or search and filter your results as you need to

311

but you can get a look at how the best

312

and top brands have arranged their brands and branding guidelines

313

which as a branding a logo designer it can give you inspiration

314

and show you how to fully lay out a brand style

315

guide i mean like right here citron have gone into great

316

detail on how the logo should be used even on dealership signages and

317

so on seeing how the top level brands do things can

318

translate into your own work very very easily now i really really love this next website

319

and it has some of the best curated inspiration specifically speaking for web

320

and ui designers but you have categories at the very top

321

and as you can see we have some of the most creative ideas

322

that make websites and apps that much more interesting

323

and more functional like here on the 404 page results these are some really neat ways to make a boring

324

and annoying web experience become a bit more interesting

325

and a bit more of a joke

326

and then here we have some apple website easter eggs

327

and i just love seeing the creativity in these results here

328

but hang on a minute someone has seriously put a six

329

seven easter egg in the age form on an app now i don't really know what to think about that honestly

330

but next on this channel i always talk about design psychology

331

and design thinking well this gem of a website appeared on my radar very recently

332

and it literally goes into detail on teaching you every psychological design principle there is

333

or the vast majority of them anyway now it approaches the teaching from a ui

334

or web design point of view but the content does translate

335

and education is very very on point

336

and it is an amazing resource to bookmark that is

337

if you want to improve your knowledge of the deeper style of graphic design something ai cannot touch

338

but most of these are still coming up soon

339

so it shouldn't be too long before they can finish up this list

340

and now the granddaddy of graphic design websites that will give you an unfair advantage

341

as i said at the race starts i found a website

342

that truly is the best resource i've ever found and

343

that is tools .design it's like a giant search engine

344

that has most of the resources

345

that exist on the internet in one place you have a ton of categories to search over

346

and each resource is shown as free paid or freemium

347

and really there is

348

so much to go over on this website it would take all day realistically

349

but here for example some free open source fonts

350

and how can i actually say know and already i found something

351

that i love about house archive i'm going to be downloading

352

that one later for sure but yeah this website has

353

so much stuff to look over

354

so i do actually urge you to go take a look none of these advantage websites are sponsored today

355

and they are linked in the description box for today's video

356

but do make sure to bookmark this video

357

so you can refer back to it any time in the future

358

so i hope you found that video useful

359

and you now have an unfair advantage

360

but going back to where i've been well i've been traveling

361

and in doing so i called a sinus infection hence my voice is like this

362

but next week we'll have new and fresh content

363

so kind of sorry for the clip show but yeah until next time guys design your future today peace

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
