Graphic Design
Graphic Design is the art of visualizing
ideas. Graphic design is a part of your daily life. From humble things like gum wrappers to huge things like billboards to the T-shirt you’re
wearing, graphic design informs, persuades, organizes, stimulates,
locates, identifies, attracts attention and provides pleasure... Graphic
design plays a part in nearly everything you see, everything you buy.
Interest in the visual world, curiosity about communication in all its
forms and creativity...
...that's what it takes to be a Graphic
Designer!
ADVERTISING is an art older than history, though in its present forms it is quite recent. The newest of all its developments is that phase in which we are most interested. Direct Advertising. The relation between advertising and selling is so close and intimate that they can hardly be separated. Probably the only distinction that really exists is this: when we advertise by word of mouth and by personal con-tact, we call it "selling;" when we sell, or try to sell, by sample or by the printed word, we call such selling "advertising."
