Graphic Design Careers: Imagine the Possibilities

What are some Graphic Design careers available to you after graduation? Just a few options include:

Advertising Designer – These graphic designers work almost exclusively in advertising, designing print, television and Internet ads. They need a strong understanding of the message the business is trying to convey, with the ability to effectively convey that message in a way that grabs the attention of the viewer and intrigues them enough to explore the product further. Advertising combines elements of art, business and psychology together to create compelling advertising and marketing materials.

Desktop Publisher – This Graphic Design career typically involves working on smaller publications, using desktop publishing software. They might even be employed by a single company to design internal newsletters and communications. Desktop publishers use tools like Quark to design and layout the publication before sending it to print.

Illustrator – An illustrator often brings a great idea to life by drawing a picture of it for use in advertising or publishing. They draw diagrams, graphs, pictures and more, and do so either freehand or using software. Illustrators can work in almost any industry, including publishing, television, movies, Web design and others. It’s a very versatile field that offers many opportunities for those pursuing a Graphic Design career.
