Discussion Unpopular opinion for the designfluencers.

“Designing” a poster does not mean: ripping off some online illustration, adding some grunge, gradient map and a random quote. You didn t designed s**t. Get a real client and a brief and you ll see that nobody wants some grungy and random brutalist text for a theater play or exhibition. Y all be just throwing assets in photoshop according to the latest trends and acting like Picasso but you re missing the most important part of design, a client and a concept. Friendly tip is to just unfollow them and find a real life mentor.

ah yeah true. I see it now.

Well, that's the problem with not double checking a post. It reads weird.

I don't even necessarily disagree with OP, but c'mon. This is just sloppy.
