Hi there! I’ve been working as designer in Toronto for the past 14 years, mostly for marketing/design agencies. In my role for the last 7 years I have been doing both front end design (html/css) and digital design (web apps/websites). I am looking now to make a move into tech and am unsure what I should be making, as someone who has both development and design skill sets. What are your thoughts on this?

Hi Creatives! mp4 help!

I'm trying to put an animation that is within a mockup on my portfolio site. Animation was created in Adobe XD then placed within a phone mockup in photoshop by using video timeline. Exported as "Render Video" and works perfectly fine when playing. My portfolio is on Squarespace, which doesn't support direct upload of mp4, I attempted to embed the javascript code, which doesn't look great. When adding an mp4 to a site what is the best way that you all have found?

Looking to pivot my career into Graphic + Web Design! I created a Learning Roadmap to plan out the things I need to teach myself in order to master the basics & start taking on clients.

1. Learn fundamentals of Graphic Design & Design Theory (I have a couple books I’m reading & courses I will take)
2. Learn Figma bc it is an advanced design tool/software (I only know Canva)
3. Learn Webflow as it is the premier web-designing platform (I only know Wix)

Is this a good start? Do I need Adobe? Ty

(1/2)Has anyone ever had their contract end early with no warning? I was hired as an “agile social designer” for a big box retailer as a freelancer. The gig posting said it was a couple months (until the end of june) but when I interviewed they said they were actually gonna extend me until next February. Anyways now they’re saying the whole agile team may be eliminated and I didn’t get any new work assigned this week… I’m kind of freaking out bc I thought I’d at least have until next month.

How do y’all get productive? My productive hours usually start after lunch 😅 the mornings have always been rough to me no matter what I do. Share your wisdom with me!

Hello! Q on how to follow up w/ recruiter about a role. DM’d them about Founding Product Designer role, they “love my background” but looking for someone with actually 10 YOE (JD says 4+). It’s been a little over a mo. with role seemingly still open on their site.

I’ve since updated resume w/ + experience (isn’t close to 4 years tho) and exp is aligned. Looking at the rest of the JD and type of company, I know I can fill the role.

Best way to strategically reach back out?
