Comment below what your design process looks like & what creative things you love to do! âșïž
I dont like instagram , only CZcams
Sorry, supersupe sorry
Hi. I really like your video :)
But can you tell me where you bought your devices from?đ
Thanks đ
Especially for your big computer, I really don't know what it's called, that's why I hope you tell me where I can buy it. Thank you.đ
@@esraafahad9642 thank you so much! I have a video on my channel about my desk setup, with all details on my equipment there :)
I have a degree in Media Design and I'm now trying to get a degree in software development. You don't know how much appreciated videos on those topics from a WOMAN like you, who has the exact same job background, whom I can look up to, are. If anyone reading this knows of other software development/designing channels run by women with similar aesthetic and vibe, please let me know. Maisy, if you are reading this I love your vibe and it makes me happy to see other women thrive and accomplished â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
Im studying also Engineering and your vids are giving me more confidence to strive for my goals, thank you very much!
Iâm so happy to hear that! Keep at it đȘđŒđ€
This is nice change from the usual quick edits where people talk at you with no breaks in between sentences, this feels more like your having a conversation with us ..very cozy đ
Thanks for the lovely comment đ€ cozy is the way to go!
It's rare that the video is just as beautiful as the thumbnail
Iâve never found a youtuber that captures the quality of life as well as the aesthetic that I love!! Also Maisys words are so comforting!! Je tâaime đ
Wow thank you for this sweet comment đ„°
I'm also a software engineer and recently I have been feeling lost about my path, but after watching this video I recovered the inspiration to keep learning more. I have liked design since a long time ago but never really got into that and I think now it's the right time. thank you for your outro it really inspired me.
i really like the tip about looking at magazines for design inspiration -- it's something tech culture's overlooked
Girl, Im so glad I found your channel. Your videos and your voice is soooo relaxing. You sounded like a siri korean/chinese/japanese version. Your voice is so peaceful in the ear. It sounds like an angel making youtube videos hands down!
hahaha aww thank you so much!
your videos were randomly suggested to me on my CZcams homepage. I know nothing about design, but have always been curious and appreciative of it. Your videos are informative and very pleasant to watch. Looking forward to more of your content!
This is amazing! Thank you so much for watching đ„°
thank you for taking us through your design process maisy! this is so informative! and i also love dribbble for searching inspirations. i like the step where you just go through magazine layouts and articles for design inspiration, thatâs one thing i never thought i needed to do. thank you for sharing this! đđ»đđ»
thank u so much jeorge!! đ€đ€
love it! :) your voice is so peaceful
This keyboard is so joyful !
I love the way you approach your design ideas. How you use your tools to help you bring to life what is actually in your mind is quite an interesting process.
You should put together a book showcasing your design layouts and commentary on how you came to each particular design. Keep creating!
Thank you so much Mark! đ„° Iâm thinking maybe Iâll make videos about my design sessions and can go into deeper commentary, thatâd be a cool concept right? đ
@@maisyleigh For sure MaisyLeigh! I would say that your video is a good indication that you will do well as an online creator.
You have the right mix of skill sets in terms of how you put together your videos on how you execute your approach.
But most of all its how you apply your humbleness and your willing ness to share, that is your real magic.
Keep creating!
I am so glad, I finally found someone I can relate to! I am going to study computing next year with a prime focus on software engineering and what to spend my free year is trying out new things. You made programming and designing even more appealing and exciting! Just subscribed ^-^
WARM AN COZY! Exactly!
Thank you for sharing your experience, tools, and your processes. This helps me so much since Iâm trying to learn how to design my apps better.
i'm and electrical engineering student and i started to love design too!! i just loved your channel and i hope i could learn more about your routine and your journey!!

Just fantastic approach to create videos, really high quality đ
Dang y are these videos so aesthetically pleasing....
Thanks for uploading. Great content! I'm am especially in love with your keyboard.
Thank you so much Andre!
Thanks for sharing your process, it helps me on how to start the design of my project!
i am a user research and now trying to transit to design, this provides details for me to understand the thinking process. thanks thanks!!
thank you so much for watching! i'm so happy that the video helped you :)
Very inspiring and motivating, thank you đ
love your content! very high quality
thank u so much!! đ„°
I just discovered your channel through the desk setup video when I was browsing for videos about the Samsung ultrawide monitor (cuz Black Friday lmao) - and then fell into a rabbit hole of watching all your videos!! I love your editing aesthetic/vibe and find your content so inspiring! I've also been trying to self teach myself graphic/UI design but feel unconfident with no guidance/mentor. Watching your thought process inspires me to just make a project for myself and start creating. I've been thinking about transitioning to the tech space and would love to see a video about how you became a software engineer and how you started teaching yourself design.
wow thanks so much Victoria! đ feel free to ask for advice on my instagram if you need some guidance. im so happy to help. I will def make a video on that topic, stay tuned! â°
Been loving your content !:) youâre and awesome designer
It would be great to know how you learned design, like the books you read or courses you took. Thanks for this great content!
Absolutely loved this
I can't thank you enough! This definitely helped me get back on track and focused on UX. I am new to the field and still trying to land my first UX position. Thank you, thank you, thank you. đ
Wow thank you for your kind comment! Best of luck to you! đ
Girl this was SOOOOO motivational!
Keep the good work!
Wow thank you! Iâm so glad you liked it!

i can not wait for your app to come out
I hope you gain a lot more subscribers as you keep making videos, you really deserve it! Absolutely everything is so well done, I'd watch a vid on any topic from you
Hi Victoria! Thank you so much đ This makes me so happy!
For a while now, Ive been having "creative block"! In other words, it was difficult for me to be inspired, thinking new ideals/designs. Literally my life was simply work, come home and sleep. I stop using my old Dell laptop, which had all of my designs and productivity, and eventually I paused all creative activities and production. Since watching your channel and other CZcamsrs, Im able to push myself in investing a MacBook Pro and get back to the swing of things. All and all, I just want to say thank you for staying consistent with all of your videos and enlightening that fire I had in me all along. Stay bless and full of light.

Thank you so much for leaving this message! đ best of luck to you on your creative journey. Donât be too hard on yourself too! Sometimes itâs good to just live and enjoy living - and not feel pressured by being productive or putting things out. I get creative blocks all the time too, but itâs comments like these that pick me back up âșïž
this video is amazing, so happy to have found such an amazing channel. i'm binge watching all your videos đ„°đ„°

Im starting to learn sewing and fashion design by my own and i want to make youtube videos of the process, you inspire me a lot! :) Glad that your channel came across my feed â„
Thank you so much! This makes me so happy! đ
Believe it or not. This is what I've been looking for since I've been shifted from another kind of career. So thank you so much
I'm studying computer science and I feel like giving up because everyone else is so good at coding and here I am getting errors every second. Can you make a video about how to stay passionate, to be better at coding and to like idk not give up coding? Really love your videos xoxo
i love your videos!! â€ïž
Thanks so much!!
Wow, this is sooo beautiful đ„șđ„ș.
Omg Shantanu I never realized this was YOU who commented on my video! Iâm a huge fan of yours and have been watching your videos since you started CZcams! So honored that you enjoy my videos as well âșïž
