Have a message or a invention you
want people to notice? If you're trying interactive a concept in a visual way
(maybe not you’re shopping list, unless you're feeling particularly creative)
then you'll be using graphic design to get your message across. From pouring
your morning cereal to come for the last bus home from the pub, you’ll find
yourself looking at the work of a graphic designer. A graphic designer uses
text, diagrams, symbols, photography, textures, coolers and letter forms to
create print and web-based design for a huge variety of clients. They're
essentially visual problem-solvers who work fields such as branding, packaging,
issuing, advertising and digital project. Movie posters, concert tickets,
corporate reports, your favorite apps and of course this website … all rely on
effective design to get the user's attention and get to the heart of what the
client is trying to say. Good communication skills are an essential part of the
designer’s toolkit. Making designs that look great on the page is nice, but one
of the most important parts of the graphic design process happens even before
you put pen to paper—listening to and interpreting what the client needs. What
is the underlying problem they're trying to solve? Once this has been
established the designer can work with the client to find the best way to
visually communicate their message to the bull audience and impact them in a
positive way.
