How about being an apprentice in graphic design?

◇◆ 1. Wide application range ◆◇

Graphic design is to create or combine symbols, graphics and words in a two-dimensional space to express the visual expression of ideas and messages. Its core parts include: creativity, composition, graphic design, font design and layout design. Therefore, strictly speaking, print advertisements, posters, book design, packaging design, font design, logo design, brand design, web design, Ui design and e-commerce design all belong to the category of graphic design.

Because of the wide application range of graphic design, almost every company can't do without graphic design, and the market demand of graphic designers is very large, which also creates the second advantage of graphic design.

◇◆ 2. Good employment ◆◇

Since graphic design is widely used and has a large market demand, it is not difficult for graphic designers to find a job. What is difficult is to find a job that meets your expectations in terms of work content, environment and treatment.

two days ago, I searched the recruitment information of graphic designers in Guangzhou

◇◆ 3. The threshold is low ◆◇

Although I personally don't agree that the threshold of graphic design is low, I have to admit that there are indeed many people who become graphic designers just because they know a little graphic design software such as PS or AI. Although they can't enter a big company at first, they join some small teams. Because of the low threshold and decent treatment, it attracts many people without skills and high education.

why is the threshold of graphic design industry so low? The main reason is that the aesthetic of Chinese people is uneven, and the value of graphic design has not been generally recognized. Many companies or brands require graphic design to be available, but it doesn't matter whether it is good or bad. Low threshold can expand an industry, but it will also affect the professionalism of graphic designers and reduce the price of designers. Fortunately, the design industry is changing with each passing day, and the aesthetics of Chinese people are gradually improving, and the threshold of graphic design will definitely be higher and higher.

◇◆4. Creative ◆◇

What is design? Literally understand these two words, we can see that this is a matter that needs to be thought and brains. An excellent graphic design work needs to solve many problems, such as accurately conveying information, attracting consumers' attention, winning consumers' goodwill, leaving an impression on consumers, and promoting consumers to pay the bill.

Therefore, graphic designers need to make every work beautiful, creative, simple, novel, personalized, interesting and visually impactful. In addition, due to different industries, different customers and different problems to be solved, the design requirements will be very numerous and very different. One way can be changed, and a customer can be changed when he is tired. Therefore, I even think that graphic design is one of the most creative and fresh design industries, and if you are an uncreative person, it is difficult to go very far on the road of graphic design.

◇◆5. Easy to switch to other design industries ◆ ◇

Although UI design, web design and e-commerce design meeting also belong to the category of graphic design, they are almost completely independent from graphic design in practical work, and even form a separate design industry, which is the result of market segmentation.

but then again, even if Ui design, web design and e-commerce design are independent, after all, their mother body is graphic design, and their components are also layout design, color matching and graphic design, so if you are a good graphic designer, even if you have never been exposed to Ui design, you can easily turn around.
