This course suited my learning style so perfectly. It pushed me creatively while also giving me the freedom to work on the course at my own pace and pick any dream client to design for. Puno is such a fun instructor and I felt supported every step of the way by her teaching and the amazing TAs.
Read MoreI took the Video Creator Course because Jenn and Rachel are two creators that I have admired for a while now. I wanted so badly to learn from them and I just knew my art would never look the same. I was right. I just learned so much about what I'm capable of. I overcame a limiting belief that told me I wasn't creative. And I proved it wrong!
Read MoreI love how thoughtful the course material and structure are! The way the clips are broken out into super digestible pieces of content learning is a really lovely way to learn. The pacing is easy to follow, and the little details like the final page reminding me to grab some water and take a quick mental reset are *chef's kiss*. I really feel like y'all are holding my hand through it which is pretty impressive for a fully digital course.
Read MoreJust launched my website designed and developed by Hello World Studio who I found on the ilovecreatives directory Not only was my site so custom that it didn't look anything like a Squarespace site, it actually was a Squarespace site that I could edit myself :) Thanks ilovecreatives for helping us connect!
Read MoreMegumi has done such a wonderful job in lifting the veil behind how Shopify is structured with very simple explanations of how HTML, CSS, JSON, and Liquid all work together. The simplicity is truly amazing and very much appreciated!
If you love designing for e-commerce but really want to strengthen your coding muscles to transform your creativity into dope Shopify websites, this course is for you!
I took the Video Creator Course during a period of feeling super stuck creatively. I had an idea of what I wanted to say but no vision, and I felt really alone with where I was in my process. I had watched Rachel for years and I thought about taking this course for at least 6 months before taking the leap! I was ready to have some accountability and learn how to unleash some of that same creativity and power I saw reflected in Rachel's work.
Read MoreMy favorite thing about this course, was the Community! Starting any new hobby or creative endeavor is very intimidating, especially as a women of color. The virtual sessions whether it was 1-1 with Rachel/Jenn or the group classes made it easier to bounce ideas and get direct feedback. Being part of such a talented and creative was truly so inspiring to me. I loved how everyone's style/thought process shined through during the showcase and how everyone interpreted the concepts in the workbook.
Read MoreAs a video producer at a brand, I wanted to be able to communicate more effectively with my editors and other members of the creative team. The Video Creator Course helped me more deeply understand the editing process, but the best (and unexpected!) side effect was the major improvement in my creative ideation at work and in my own personal creative endeavors.
Read MoreI took the Squarespace Design Course to learn more about Squarespace features and feel more comfortable using the platform. I loved discovering my own style along the way - including a ton of (unexpected) knowledge and growth in typography, color palettes, font pairings and more. Resources section alone is a reason to sign up for this course. Plus, I was able to use all my learnings to relaunch my personal website.
Read MoreI took the GDC and it is amazing. I wanted to freshen up my design skills and get out of my head. Also, I am like a forever student at ilovecreatives. I am THEE ideal client for y'all.
I feel more comfortable presenting my creative ideas to a client with proper backup. And, I love the Edutainment, technical skills and the visual brand audit!
First & foremost, I love ilovecreatives aesthetic & the content that they produce. I respect the whole team & have learned so much from them being such strong designers. I wanted to take this course to expand on my skills, knowledge & to get a fresh perspective on how I approach design projects. I learned so many invaluable skills & am happy that I have access to my course portal for life so I can go back & rewatch / refresh my memory on certain things!
Read MoreThe course helped in sooo many ways I didn't even realize at the time! I actually recently went full time freelance so the class's resources have been great when it comes to budgeting and client communication. I love the fact that I will still have access to all the videos and resources even now that I have completed the course! I've referenced the resources many times in the several months since completing the course. And, I loved learning the studio's process to approaching a brand identity. Everything from the brand audit to the deck design were very interesting to hear about.
Read MoreI took "Finance Friends Forever" from ilovecreatives to address my student debt and lack of budgeting for my freelance endeavors. Also, it's taught in an audio format by Puno and Caroline so I was able to fit it into my busy schedule listening in the car. They use humor to teach all aspects of finance and portfolios which was a must for me. Also, it came with access to an insane amount of game-changing materials, like their workbook and several tools like the hourly rate calculator.
Read MoreI was doing Squarespace websites for clients but had reached my limits of my design ability and felt restrained in the Squarespace ecosystem. I knew I needed to level up and become more polished and stretch how I thought of the platform. The creativity the course sparked in me, and how hard it pushed my design ability was my fav. thing about the course. It was truly the web design stretch I needed – exactly what I was looking for!
Read MoreThis process was way more introspective than I expected. I thought I came in knowing myself and how I like to edit, only to discover I had so much more to dig and evaluate. In school, normally you wouldn't share your work in progress and only show up with the results. Revealing each step of the process was foreign and uncomfortable for me, especially with such a personal video.
Read MoreI truly believe in investing in your people, especially when there are great resources like ilovecreatives. In a small organization, there isn’t always the opportunity to learn from others so ilovecreatives gave our design employees a chance to network with other likeminded professionals, learn from the class, and also be inspired. There was a noticeable improvement in the quality and thoughtfulness of her work! Not only with design, but with presentation. Everyone on the team agrees!
Read MoreThis course is so accessible and has changed my life. I cannot thank you ENOUGH for creating this space, you have a team of badass folks who have shown more personal interest in me as a student than any of my professors/teachers since maybe like 3rd grade. This is unreal. Crying real taco tears.
Read MoreAs simple as it might seem, just the way that the course was designed from the systematic standpoint to visually was very captivating. It feels very intimate.
A lot of what I wanted from this course was to engage with new people that I haven't been able to meet or people from different corners of the internet, or maybe even my corners that we just haven't been able to cross paths before.
As far as what I enjoyed, I really enjoyed learning a new approach to video creation. It is hard sometimes to really build off of ideas in your head into a process of it actually becoming real. This experience really allowed me to explore my own formula of the creative process and now I am able to have the confidence to really make anything I am struggling with or learning into art. I also loved meeting other creatives. I managed to form beautiful bonds with people that I did not know at first, this really felt like a second family in a weird way lol. I have so much love for all of you and it's one of those experiences that you smile about when you think about it. It was extremely tough and at one point I was having thoughts of giving up. Having a community behind me to support me and work through my problem areas really helped me in those moments. I started to understand that sometimes this is just as equally a part of the creation process as are the more triumphant, flow-like moments.
Read MoreFirstly, my favorite was going to Rachel's office hours every week. She was so attentive to our questions and answered with such honesty that you felt she was really letting you into her world. I love the way she processes and sees the world and then aims to express that through her work. My second favorite part was meeting such amazing, creative, and genuine people. I've become close with many people in the class in such a short time span. We're all so different but this class brought us together in such a beautiful way. I haven't had this experience with an online course before.
