Graphic Designer

• Graphic designers create designs using print,
  electronic, and film media.Look around your
  desk. What do you see? Perhaps a notebook, a
  magazine, a website on your computer screen, a
  bottle of soda, and a pen or two. If you examine
  each item, chances are you will find several
  things created by a graphic designer. The
  notebook, pens, and soda bottle each display
  company logos. The magazine has several
  illustrations in a single ad. The website has a
  cool new design and some animated features. The
  fact is, nearly everything has a "graphic
  identity" now. This helps people recognize
  different brands and companies.Graphic
  designers create brochures and ads to promote
  products or services. They produce logos for
  products or businesses. They create visual
  designs for company reports and other print
  materials. Some graphic designers work on design
  and layout for magazines or other publications.
  No matter what, graphic designers use knowledge
  about layout and design principles to guide their
  creations. Graphic designers do nearly all
  their work on a computer.
