Not Everyone is a Graphic Designer!
I had a great day yesterday. I got to speak to some REAL Graphic Artists who are local. Jerred at Shipping Depot, after I explained who I was said, "You speak my language." And I said that is my line as a great conversation ensued. I then had to pleasure to meet Adam at PrintBoy on Merritt Island and "Talk Shop". All you REAL Graphic Artists are very much appreciated. I do not care who does the design as long as it is good! And these guys are GOOD! I have often thought of writing a book Diary of a MAD GRAPHIC ARTIST, but it may have a limited audience.
This article from Midwest Marketing pretty much sums it all up! I have always told clients there is a method to my madness.
What separates Designers from the “I’ve got Photoshop”?
- Designers make decisions based on the elements of design rather than throwing something together because it looks nice or cool.
- Designers don’t just throw something on their screen and hope it looks professional and sends the right message. There is a thought process; color choice, placement and knowing what works best for that client’s message and intended medium.
- Designers are innovative, they are creative and can create mind blowing ideas that the average person cannot.
- Designers go beyond. This is their career, they’re college educated. Your project is just as important to them as it is to you.
Design on, every one!
