What is a graphic designer? What on earth is the graphic designer doing? Is there a future for graphic design? Where can we go to work after learning from the training school? This is a question that we have been puzzled and urgently need to know.

from the professional direction, there are roughly several kinds of graphic designers: business card designers for outdoor advertising of light boxes, advertising designers of advertising companies, designers of decoration companies, digital designers of photo studios, retouchers in network marketing, Taobao artists, typesetters in printing plants and output centers, packaging designers, industrial appearance designers (ID), fashion designers, poster designers of real estate companies, picture book designers in general factories, game artists and magazine illustrators.

among them, I personally think that Taobao artists and typesetters are the most promising, potential and helpful to personal technical growth.

Next, I will introduce in detail the software that each graphic designer position will probably need to use and the things that need to be learned. It is emphasized here that you can become a designer without knowing the software, and there are still many things that need to be learned constantly at work.

In my personal opinion, the designer of outdoor advertising business cards for light boxes has the least future and potential, because this kind of company is not even a company. A boss, renting a single room, recruiting a painter and welder can raise the banner and occupy the mountain. This kind of company generally has a simple job. Just type a few words with cdr to make light boxes, such as business cards, and you can download templates directly. However, because the technical content is not high and there are not many lists, the salary is relatively low, generally not exceeding 3,. It is suggested that students who have just learned the software can go in and practice their hands for no more than 3 months.

advertising designers in advertising companies need to know a lot of software, at least ps cdrai pdf cad, etc. Companies are large and small, and large professional advertising companies have high recruitment requirements. Generally speaking, they need to have a college degree or above in fine arts and have working experience in printing plants. The workload is very heavy and the pressure is great. Because the works you design will eventually be paid by the customers. Even if you have a good idea, not all people can understand it, so you may need to revise the manuscript over and over again, and someone will tell you what to do. This process is very painful. The working environment is not as perfect as you think, and overtime is a common occurrence. However, this position can learn a lot and sharpen people. Wages depend on ability, ranging from 1,8 to 8,1. If there is an opportunity, I suggest going to study for six months, and then I will be able to do a lot of work after I come out.

a designer of a decoration company, this position may be more demanding and more stressful than the previous position. He needs to know pscdr ai cad 3dsmax v-ray and other software, be able to make plans and elevations with CAD, and be able to independently render 3D renderings. The salary is directly proportional to the ability and workload. After several years, if you can talk to customers independently, the salary is very considerable, which belongs to the expansion of graphic design. If you feel that graphic design is not suitable for you, you can consider changing careers in this direction.

A digital designer in a photo studio and a general wedding photography center need such a position. They don't need much software, and they can basically be competent if they are proficient in PS. (Those who think they can be competent by knowing Meitu and Xiu Xiu can play at the same time. ) Know color matching, cutout beautification, font design, etc. In most cases, just apply some templates. A large wedding center may also need to know some post-film and television synthesis software, such as audio and video, AE, etc. It is best to use SLR cameras and some photographic equipment. The work is easy and the pay is ok.

A retoucher in network marketing is basically the same as a Taobao artist, and also requires proficiency in PS, and some may require knowledge of web design software such as dreamweaver flash. Proficient in website background management (this is basically very simple, just some work of passing pictures). Skillful use of photographic equipment, can cut the picture to change the background and beautify the work. You may need to work as customer service, after-sales, network maintenance, etc. It is required to understand basic e-commerce concepts such as B2B, B2C and C2C, and it is better to know some basic maintenance work on the computer side. The workload is not big, and it is easier to find a job. Many people recruit in 58 cities and online fairs. The treatment is generally more than 35. And the future is great, after all, e-commerce is the future trend.

Typesetter in printing plant and output center, which I think is the most suitable position for beginners in graphic design and plays a great role in the growth of beginners. It's a pity that you usually only recruit skilled people. If you meet a company that recruits novices, don't hesitate to go, don't look at the treatment, just go, and when you come out, you will find that the graphic design work is very easy to find. Everyone knows what the printing factory does, but many people in the output center may not have heard of it. If you pay attention to it yourself, there may be many graphic output centers outside. (Note that it's not just any small photo studio, and that small printing agency doesn't count. ) This kind of position is the easiest to get in touch with the core knowledge of printing in graphic design industry, including bleeding, layout, imposition, color separation, turning, proofing, color correction, film, format conversion, design flow and other important concepts. When you study at school, the teacher said that you basically listen to gobbledygook, and you can't understand these things until you go to work. And these things, it is precisely the key that determines whether the works you design can be printed or not. No matter how beautiful the album is, it won't be printed. It's a waste manuscript. Don't expect too high salary when you first enter, start at around 25-35.

packaging designers, most of the general electronic audio-visual gift products, design the packaging of various products. ps cdr is the most basic two, and some may need CAD to draw knife lines. The most commonly used command is the precise clipping of the drawing frame. Send it to the printing plant when the design is finished.

industrial appearance designer (ID), this position is also a very promising one. The reason why I didn't write it in front is that this position requires a little higher and is a little special. I need to conceive the appearance structure of the product myself. I may design it to industrial design, and PS CDR is the most commonly used one. It would be better if I can render it with CAD PROEUG 3DSMAX. Generally, this job requires realistic works before the mold design in the factory, and it is better to have an art or sketch foundation, and the size is basically not required. Judging from the several students I teach who study watch design, those who have several years' work experience can easily get a salary of 5-7 K. Unfortunately, only those with work experience are generally recruited.

Fashion designers, who are not recommended to be beginners in graphic design, have learned a lot of software in training schools, and seldom design knowledge such as clothing structure. Interlacing is like a mountain, although this is also a branch of graphic design. Skilled poster designers of real estate companies such as PS CDR CAD are required. Real estate has been very hot, and the boss is rich. Anyway, it is common to ask one person to design posters and various promotional materials, and of course some of them are sent to advertising companies. Having done this job, it is also very simple to find a new industry. Because people who can design posters generally know how to match colors as a whole, highlight themes and create an atmosphere. Commonly used PS CDR and other

picture book designers in general factories, which many beginners don't know, such as a power supply factory and a motor factory, simply think that this kind of factory may not need advertising design, but it is not. After a company becomes bigger and stronger, external publicity and business dealings between companies will inevitably require a professional person to do graphic processing, and it is difficult for ordinary clerks to be competent for this kind of work. Need to design album, desk calendar, LOGO, slogan, logo on the machine, etc. The software used, such as ps cdr ai cad pdf, also needs to know how to scan, copy, print, etc., which is relatively comprehensive. In most cases, it is not necessary to design new materials out of thin air, and it is likely to copy existing materials, making the work easier. The treatment is 25-7.

Game artists are generally made by students of professional art colleges. It involves a wide range and requires high professionalism. It is not recommended for students who come out of training schools to engage in this kind of work.

Magazine illustrators design illustrations for some magazines or novels, both cartoon and realistic, and also need artistic skills.

UI designer, UI design is a relatively fashionable and relatively new job, which generally deals with human-computer interaction, such as the design of working interfaces and icons of mobile phones. Generally, no programming code is designed. The treatment may be higher and the requirements are higher.

brand planning and promotion, which belongs to the semi-conversion of graphic design, usually involves some business, film and television, network and other knowledge after several years of design, and you can consider doing brand promotion. Experience requires proficiency, and the salary is relatively high.

The design teacher in the training center is also a way and the most direct way to consolidate the software he has learned. The salary is not as high as most people think, and because he is in the service industry, he may work long hours and may not have holidays. The job requirements are not very high, as long as the software is skilled, the psychological quality is good and the service attitude is good. After all, the training schools outside are not as professional as those in universities, and there is almost no theoretical knowledge. It is aimed at adult education. At first, the theory is difficult to understand and apply to work, so teachers in general training schools don't need to talk too much about it. The treatment is directly proportional to the number of software you know. The advantage is that you have time to learn more from other teachers as long as you are willing to work hard. The disadvantage is that if you don't really do graphic design work, it is difficult to improve your professional knowledge, and all you know is the surface of software. The treatment is 2-7.

Generally speaking, the graphic design industry is still very promising, because there are a lot of job opportunities, and the working environment is by no means comparable to that of ordinary workers who work overtime day and night. However, to make a fortune, please stay away from graphic design. Go out and turn left at the crossroads, and set up a sesame seed cake stall, which may make a fortune.

Also, if you want to learn graphic design well, besides having an excellent professional teacher, you must persist in your efforts and study more! Don't be greedy when looking for a school. You get what you pay for. The cheaper the tuition, the less you learn (because you can't get a professional designer to teach you at low tuition). In addition, when you learn, you suffer, but when you do, you are relaxed. It's hard at first, so hold on, hold on, and the road will be easy!

next, I'm thinking about writing about the plane design I entered.
