Graphic designers combine artistic ability with technical knowledge to create designs used in print and electronic media. First-year courses introduce students to graphics software, typography and design fundamentals that are essential for success in the graphics media industry. Second-year students apply these skills in a unique instructional setting that blends marketing and advertising concepts with art production. Design ability is strengthened through instruction in printing, pre-press …
The problem with that is that there is way too many programs in America that teach graphic designs. Saddest part is that there ain’t as many design jobs in comparison to the design programs. Graduate students don’t only compete with the people that have degrees, but they also compete with the people who are self thought designers. There should be guidelines in this country on how many students per year can enter a design programs.
i’m in the yearbook staff and we have to do a lot of graphic design stuff and yea you do have to meet tons of deadlines!! plus you have to learn to accept criticism.
Thank you for that message about graphic design. That really sets the rules.
Who wants a graphic design job? It’s cut throat and lousy pay. If you partner up with somebody they’ll steal your clients and you come to work to an empty studio. “Here’s $5! Make me a logo!”
if your a graphic design degree can i have you so i can get a job

Good Art Is a Talent. Good Design Is a Skill.
Good Art Sends a Different Message to Everyone. Good Design Sends the Same Message to Everyone.

How’s Deviant Art go for you?
does anyone know any graphic design websites where i can upload my work for free…
hell yeah!
Never thought about newspapers, but I might try local mags first,. And Im not lookin for a full time job, just freelancing on my own. When im done Ill post the portfolio on here first. thanks
Thanks for answering, but I should have said an illustrator who dosent use a computer, just paint ,pencil and paper. Thats why I said vector art, becuase of all of the pc graphic work thats out now. But I do no its not a program. Now that you have said it, I think its gonna become a program soon though…lol.
find out the art director of whatever newspaper you would like to work with. Send them small samples of your work, maybe postcard size at first. Call them back to. Be warned that not many newspapers hire full time artists. Most just hire freelancers for what ever job they need filled.
With all the vector art out now do you think its possiblle to freelance with illustartion work now. Its been awhile for me but im putting together a portfolio of caracture drawings. Do you have any suggestions on getting into magazines or what ever, like what type of promotion i should use?
graphic design is art and technical knowledge thats not a question
graphic design is not a program it is a process of best relaying the companies or persons message across to an audience
