Graphic Design Job Assignment

A graphic designer is a career that may involve many jobs to open up.  It has to do with so many different things which are why it creates many fun jobs that you may want to turn into a career.  One of the jobs a graphic designer does is create covers for magazines and books.  If you really love reading a certain magazine and the layout you may be interested in creating covers for them.  You would get the chance to create something that you like and think others would appreciate for somewhere you love.  Also, creating book covers is a very important job.  Even though people are not supposed to base a book on its cover it will always happen.  People are intrigued to pick up a book when it looks interesting.  The cover is the books first impression and that is what sells.  That cover will always be remembered.  If you're not into doing covers and those types of jobs and you enjoy the graphics part of graphic design more maybe doing video and film graphics is for you.  These people know what it takes to create movies or films that people enjoy.  They can be part of the special effects team or just create and edit the film.  They love to create interest films that the audience loves to watch.  If you're the type of person who likes to leave an impression, or even be remembered forever, maybe creating business logos is for you.  We see logos everyday and don't realize how important they are.  For example, when you think of the golden M you automatically think McDonalds; when you see a check mark you think Nike; lastly when you see the rainbow colored apple with a bite out of it, you think Apple.  These logos will always be these companies' identifiers.  When people see these pictures it automatically makes their brains snap to these companies.  The graphic designers who design these logos are, in my opinion, the most important people in the business.  How else is the company going to get their name out there if they don't have a logo that their customers are going to remember?  Also, if you're more into working on computers you can create websites that people will use on a daily basis.  You could create interactive websites for people to play games or even connect with other people.  Graphic designers work is used to convey a message or advertise a certain product.  They do all kinds of work that will open doors leading to many jobs that you didn't know was part of being a graphic designer.  Making big signs and banners, TV commercials, and even creating movie and book covers are just some of the jobs.  Graphic design covers such a wide range of skills that you can use practically anywhere.  If you are a creative person who loves working with computers and want to expand your knowledge of computer graphics, becoming a graphic designer is the "Dream Career".
