What Do Graphic Designers Do?: Understanding Design

Описание: According to the American Institute of Graphic Arts, graphic designers practice the art of projecting ideas and experiences with visual and textual content. Graphic designers use a range of tools to convey information in aesthetically pleasing and legible formats.

Join Prasad Boradkar, a professor emeritus of industrial design at Arizona State University, as he presents a short online graphic design course to explain what graphic designers do. He explores the discipline of graphic design, which is also referred to as visual communication design.

In this video, you’ll learn how graphic design encompasses both physical and virtual products. These include print media, books, magazines, websites, business logs, motion graphics and more. You’ll understand how graphic designers work with typography, type, text and images to create a series of different artifacts. The design discipline is broad, and the work can happen at any scale, from the design of a single postage stamp to a national postal signage system.
