Layout design can be tricky to many designers, but today I will be showing you a step-by-step process for creating the perfect layout on your designs, each and every time. Also we will make great use of the Visual Attention Software (VAS) by 3M, as a means to make sure we are grabbing the attention of the viewer, and directing their gaze around our design efficiently.
You can learn more about VAS by visiting https://vas.3m.com and sign up for a free trial. You can also use promo code “Thomas” for five extra free trial credits when you sign up.
When embarking on a new design project, you will want to consider the layout as one of the most important aspects of the entire process, from start to finish. In the video we walk through that process starting with grids, and then heading onto aspects such as hierarchy, alignment, negative space and so on. The grid is one of the most helpful methods of getting all of this correct, and it can be considered much like the backbone of your layout, or the foundation of a successful graphic design. Layout design cannot and should not be ignored or underestimated.

yessir
"I don't like the golden ratio" – can you explain why please?
White space and negative are different.
This was the first video that I watched from your channel and I just enjoyed it! New subscriber ✨. Jesus loves you so much! and he's coming soon ❤️
I'm almost finished with my graphic memoir of how I used my health and fitness knowledge to stop my mother with mild dementia from forgetting me, and it worked. I tricked her off caffeine, then no prescription meds, forced her/tricked her/incentivized her to drink water, kept her away from high fructose corn syrup and other poison, because they made her mean and delusional, and kept her away from gluten. I labeled layers by text vs. images, and then by page number, and all of that is linked through word. When I add in pages, it becomes all scrambled. I thought writing this memoir digitally would be faster, but I don’t think so anymore. I did spend time going through all of my layers in every document in my 250-page book, renumbering the layers according to the new page number, but now reviewing all of my journals, I need to add in more. Do you have any suggestions for organizing?
Thank you for the tutorial. I had some trouble making sole layout design. This tutorial helps me to approach the layout design more properly but efficiently.
Like 50% of this was an ad for other services.
Love your clean/clear style of animation and explanation!
the thumbnail inspired by interactive design foundation 😁
I need to vietsub for video:((, i like your video
Thank you
thank you
Excellent explained 7 min amazing experience
This is a very useful video content. its worth the time to watch while the people in design field and your communication through your presentation style are really good to watch ….Thanks for the video😀
You don’t like the Golden Ratio 🙀 dude you’re missing out on perfection. Have a think about following the universe. 👌🏼 Maybe research the Fibonacci sequence and phyllotaxis those topics could spark some interest. Or Leonardo Davinci’s work. Our studio was named Australian designer of the year last year and we use it in nearly every piece of creative we do. Calculating it for proportion in logos, type scales, image cropping and general spacing. Love the channel mate keep up the great work.
a
This is great. Thanks!
What font is this
Why don't you like the Golden Ratio? Nature, the greatest designer, uses the Golden Ratio.
your vids are such a relief and helpful way to kickstart new projects!
Hi, Mr Satori Do you host classes for these Adobe Designs. I just started working with Indesign but I follow up well on YouTube with PS and Illustrator classes of yours. Kindly respond thank you.
I am a Graphic Arts major in school right now, and one of my professors taught us about the Golden Ratio. Why do you say you personally don’t like the Golden Ratio? I’d love to learn!
Thank you for all your teaching videos. Can yoiu recommend a graphic design software for a 70 year old noobie, whose is a slow software learner? My project is to offer free English language education worldwide via gaming. Currently I must create an EPK for sponsor institutions expressing interest. I have some ideas that I miss I could include here. Also do you do private consulatations?
Every time I try to make a home page or any time of grid I rewatch this just to remind myself of these principles.
THank you for the quality content sir!
thank you for your video😀
Some many client ignore that, how to explain it ? Please ? Maybe a video on the right discour for client ? 😊
This also works for character sheets for ttrpgs!! thank you.
3M iS ACTUALLY TRAINING AN AI WITH YOUR DESIGN TO REPLACE YOU AS A DESIGNER IN THE FUTURE.
Done likes & subscribe your channel. ♥️ It 👍🏻👍🏻
This man is awesome
You should have said A4, the reason being is that 99% of the Worlds population knows the size of A4 paper, I haven't got a clue what size A3 is, I am guessing it is slightly smaller.
I love the animations in your videos! It makes me more intrigued to learn Graphic Design as a beginner. Keep it up!
Super. Thanks
Im in this composition course and im still confused as too WHERE i should place my text and images on a document whether it be an editorial or poster design im just not sure where to place images or text to make a successful composition that looks pleasing to the eye on a page; Do i put up top or the bottom of the page the left or the right ? its not clear to me so is there a rule or method on this topic on where to place images and text on a document to create a successful composition every or what is the best or most optimal place to start on a document or page to create a pleasing composition every time
What software you have used in 5:42
I'm building a gd layout
I am so sad that I have found out this video so late and the code was already expired for the VAS free subscription account. Thank you for the great content. As a person who doesn't come from a design field and who self teaches, your videos mean a lot to me! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
great content! do you have a video on how you created the gird?
👏👏👍
Thank you Satori. So much appreciation. You speak gold in such a humble way!
me, a random 14 year old, watching this not really understanding any of it lol
i'm not graphic designer, but this is helpful for me to layout better powerpoint presentation in my work
Hi, do you have a tutorial on single column books, like what the margins should be ideally? Any calculations? How can Golden Ratio help ? Thanks
