over 2 years ago from Stephen Piercey, Senior Designer at Chalk
I'm on the hunt for some great design videos for a casual work lunch. We're a trio of designers (working in UI/UX/Sport) but are open to basically anything design focused. Not too worried about it being focused on the specific industry.
Any free videos online that folks have watched that you would recommend? Thanks for your suggestions.
Anything by Chris Do and his team over at The Futur. What you'll learn here is truly valuable in all aspects of the design business. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-b3c7kxa5vU-bnmaROgvog
This series by Luke Wroblewski is worth a watch (if you haven't already).
Hey Stephen - I'm going to throw in some shameless self-promo here but I've just launched my first video in a series of reviews on design tools that maybe you'd dig. This first one is perhaps a bit basic for a veteran in the industry but I do plan to mix things up on my channel. I also publish a weekly show on design and development news called Yo!
High Resolution - Bringing clarity to how the best companies approach, communicate, and deploy design. Link - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzBkNPSxw15qrW_Y8p-oCUw/about
Local company in Toronto: https://www.ynotmade.com/en/shop/neo/?sku=5033. Very popular here with cyclists. Durable, washable, customizable and rain-proof. I've had mine for two years now without any issues.
I'm not sure where you are in the world but in Seattle, Lynda is free if you're a member of the public library system. Lynda is a great resource for general design. To be honest, haven't watched any videos recently so I'm not familiar with the current state of content. Their videos are usually really in-depth which is nice when it comes to learning new stuff. It might be worth a quick google search to see if this is available in your area.
Other resources - (Some Free)
Skillshare.com - Lots of content when you first arrive and can be really fun. I can't tell you how many lettering classes I've tried to take. Maybe hard to cut through all the channels.
This Video is about branding but still really good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKu2de0yCJI
Youtube is a great resource, I often times learn about development as well as to know how things can be constructed as well as how much time it could take. Designing flat screens is one thing but building that app is another battle.
Lynda of course.
Hope that helps!

I'm also looking for sites like this, but the only place that consistently works is YouTube. I'll keep looking and update you as I find more.
