The Unexpected Pros and Cons of Being a Graphic Designer
Рет қаралды 1,952
Жыл бұрынThe lifestyle of a graphic designer isn't all glitz and glam. There's a lot of work that goes into it, but it's definitely a career where if you love it, it's the best life. I enjoy the industry and everything I've experienced in my career, so hear it from someone who's been through it.

Loving all these insights! Love the ‘it’s a battle of failing upwards’ and ‘bringing other people’s terrible ideas to life’, will carry that with me 😂 Love your sense of humour even with the negative aspects and way of framing things!

Hey! Dropping by to let you know, that I love your content. Please never stop posting! We need more voice in design since it is still a high-demand job. Not high paying***, but high demand haha

Youve mentioned quite alot of different type of graphic design titles. Do you recommend to choose one from the beginning and focus on that based on who’s attract you the most? (after kinda understand each one). Or learn the whole graphic design as a whole and then choose one ? Tnxx❤

I’m actually working on a video series regarding this, so you are two steps ahead of me! My recommendation is to be a generalist in the beginning because you don’t want to block yourself off from the other areas. There’s also a lot of overlap across them, so building a portfolio that shows a breadth of design skills across branding, editorial design, interaction design, for example, will give you more options when applying for jobs and projects!

@@yanivitzhak4392 This one is a little trickier to answer, and I can't really give a definitive response on this, but the average junior designer salary in NYC is about $70K. Still, some designers make more and others make less. This will also vary depending on the company, location, and then experience. It's never the answer anyone wants to hear from me, but my truest answer is to focus on the work, and the money will come.

It's definitely a juggling act. Some clients aren't great, but the ones that are really make our job worth it!
