How do you become a graphic designer?
i want to become a graphics designer. help me out
There are mainly three ways to get into graphic design.
- The first, learning programs or being self-taught. Some designers simply learn through exposure to graphic design projects and programs, either by a family member who practices graphic design, at a design firm or school. However, access to a computer, software and the internet or online tutor are mandatory. Hardware where you work on, software what you use to create the final product and the internet to have access to video tutorials and send the clients their work and communicate with them or contact a tutor.
- The second, going to school for a degree, that was the option I went for. I could draw and paint but did not want to be purely an artist. Similarly, I did music, sang in the Mascato choir and did piano. Furthermore, I did the science field at school, including computer studies. Therefore, I wanted to do an integral degree that included all of my subjects and extramural activities; and graphic design was the closest.
