No problem. You can also try a different song, something that is a little slower and that goes with the pace of the person talking. You see when the song's BPM is higher than the voice, it makes it harder for the brain to focus on one.
Great work. Except the song. It really grabs my attention making it hard to understand what the voice is saying. Maybe tone it down a bit?
I think learning to design consists of two things:
Knowing what tools exist out there. Leaning how to use them, and most importantly becoming so good at them so that you can pick the right tool for the right job. For example, a logo designer would pick AI and not Sketch.
Knowing what is a good design and what's a bad design. This partly comes with experience, so design and experiment as much as you can.
However, the most important thing you need to do is to study. Study other people's work, try to understand why they did things the certain way they did.
Follow some designers that you respect and try to pick up the little tricks they involve in their projects. Great works are great because of the thought that has been put into producing them. You need to learn how to think like a designer.
Look at everything in your everyday life with *design( in mind. The bus stop sign: why that color, how would you improve it. etc.
Hope this helps.
Completely agreed. I liked the last one the most, it really showed the "stickyness" of the material.
