>Can somebody photoshop X? Can somebody make me a logo?
All requests for photoshopping belong on /wsr/ - Worksafe Requests or /r/ - Adult Requests. /gd/ doesn't take requests or do free or even paid work sometimes. However, if you're new at something, asking "HOW can I X?" rather than "CAN YOU make X?" will give you better results.

>Can I post some of my work for critique?
There is usally a critique/What-Are-You-Working-On thread, and that is where work for critique go.

>Can somebody find [font]?
http://www.mediafire.com/download/027xjs3ujvyqxmd/Fonts.zip
also check out your local torrent site or the font-share thread.
Remember to share and not just take. Also remember that using liscensed fonts in commercial works is a bad idea.

Looking forward to be a Freelancer Graphic Designer and Blender Artist.

I'm a 19 years old male, I decided to not attend to college because In my point of view, it's just not worthy it, paying thousands for something you can learn online. Here is my problem though, I don't know where I should start. I feel like I'm not confident enough, and I don't know many places where I could capitalize over my work.

I'm currently working at my family's business, but it's so annoying having to work with public, and being at a family's business doesn't make you feel like you are independent. Which is what I'm looking forward to be.

It's been hard since everyone tries to push me into college, because in their mind, college = easy life. And I really don't bother getting minimum wage as long, I'm doing something that I enjoy.

NO ONE anywhere online has a years-long structured system of tutorials and exercises that are going to get you good at design - and that you are going to follow thru on.
"i dont know where i should start:"
you cant even get started, guy!!!!
your view of education is flawed. and your family's view of education (according to you) is also flawed. you want an easy life, become a lawyer or a plumber or a garbage collector. a freelance design life, college or no, is not an easy life. no clue what you are doing with your family but you are utterly fucking wrong on education.

Can I talk about video editing here? I really want to talk about it but I don't know what board really suits it, people at /tv/ just aren't interested at all

Nowadays, the only thing Premiere has over Davinci right now is the AI shit and communication with After, which is very useful, but Davinci is so good, is Premiere only so hegemonic because it's adobe?

Resolve is horrible.... anyone who thinks otherwise literally has no idea what they are talking about. Resolve MIGHT be used to do color correction by some professionals, but that should and is likely to change soon because Resolve has countless problems. I did what most people did where I couldn't stand using Premiere at one point because of Adobe's bullshit, so I tried to switch to Resolve, I went RUNNING back to Premiere. Anyone claiming they switched over is not editing anything substantial. Here's a short list of things Resolve sucks at:
1. the display is all fuzzy; it's meant for color correction but the program can't even display the video in the quality that any other video player can; this is because it can't scale down without making the image go to shit.
2. Text made in program will look like shit, when I used it I couldn't make titles without them having colored fringe around the edges... so you'll need to make 100% of your titles in another program.
3. I figured that because Resolve is at the very least used for high end color correction it could be used to do green screen composites... well it actually can't. Even the keying in Premiere which is also pretty shitty is about 1,000 times better than what Resolves exported composite look like, they are 100% unusable with Resolve.

Even when it comes to color grading Resolve almost under no setting will actually export what you see in the timeline... and not only will the gamma shift in various browsers or video players, it won't even look the same when reimported into FUCKING Resolve!

>NOOOOOOO YOU HAVE TO USE ADOBE SHITWEAR THAT HASN'T BEEN UPDATED SINCE 2010
>I'M A PROFESSIONAL BUT I DONT KNOW HOW TO USE CHROMA KEY ITS THE SOFTWARES FAULT AAAAAAAAAAA

Fusion is a 1000x better at compositing, AE is 20% better than Fusion at doing motion graphics.
Learning Resolve + Fusion is the better time investment unless you want to be an Adobe slave forever. Resolve and Fusion are bound to surpass AE and Pr in every way (already the case for Pr, literally abandonware at this point)

source: I actually use my brain

Which one do you think is the best?

Paint Tool SAI 2 (pirated) then save whatever the fuck you made as PSD then change it into whatever the fuck you want in Illustrator (pirated). I have been working using this method for the past 4 years and nothing bad has happened.

I downloaded this one from somewhere a month or two back, it had a broken grave (u0060 `, would overlap onto characters typed in certain places like Windows Terminal and vscode), so I went into fontforge and edited the character (Element>Glyph Info>OT Glyph Class> Mark --> Base Glyph).

this is v1.008, not the newest v1.009 (couldn't find it anywhere)

alegria is one (of many) names for the widely used illustration style that you associate with tech companies.
you can find the wiki article under its more widely known name 'memphis':
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_Memphis

people here have a tradition of equating this style with political believes they themselves do not identify with, which keeps them stuck in a perpetual cycle of unintelligently ranting against it.
it is the careworn midwit version of a political statement, "disguised" as an artistic/cultural criticism (...or sth. I am not even sure what it is supposed to be). sure, you *could* have interesting conversations about artistic characteristics of that style or the anthropological context it is coming from. but from experience this forum is not the right place to do so in a productive/insightful manner

>genuine expressions going on being delivered in a tacky way
I feel like genuine expression is the biggest thing lacking in art at the moment
everyone just wants to make a statement or signal this or that with no real desire to get THEIR emotions across, but the emotions of whatever they've ascribed themselves to projecting

Hey everyone! I'm new here and i don't really know how this all works but i made my website some time ago now and didn't get much feedback from it, about the design etc...

I'm very curious what y'all think about it, what i should change/improve/get rid of/etc...
Design-wise but also on the overall, comments on anything is welcome! :)

It's a very basic portfolio showing some of my work, still a junior so i don't have much to put in there but i'm working on sub projects to add.

Here's the link:
https://romain-gerard.com/
and thanks in advance :)
>>
looks fine but the images you are using in your projects are low quality.
you can get good quality pictures from unsplash.com
>>
>>454408
sort projects from newest to oldest
decrease border radius on things
make dropshadow on elements more subtle, not black, more like grayish/bluish and blurred a little
not understanding "new presences" element, might be good to make it more obvious what is it/changing it
"3 words to describe myself" sounds like something out of hr talk, I would be seriously considering yeeting this out
"Some other competences i like to touch" also kinda sounds strange, it kinda implies that you everyday work with JS, but only occasionally with CSS and HTML


Besides that, overaly pretty good portfolio, seems that you're doing things and learning more. Keep it up. As a personal advice, if you wanna learn something, try to learn react/angular and some backend framework like Nest.js or other alikes. Work with node, also learn opsing a little, it's very helpful.

Rien à redire sur le design mais retravaille le texte au plus vite. Littéralement la première phrase que l'on est amené à lire n'a aucun sens, on dirait que c'est de la traduction auto :

> J'ai un vrai plaisir à donner un coup de jeune à l'image de marque des entreprises qui veulent se démarquer en ligne.
