I recently started in my graphic design program in college and haven’t found any videos really explaining what jobs to expect out of school. This video was exactly what I’ve been looking for! Thanks so much!
I'm very new to the graphic design world. I'm starting school this fall. I'm not the best artist but I always been interested I'm how websites are made and I love colors💛
That's wonderful, Ava! It's okay if you don't know everything about graphic design. You can still learn the skills/techniques once you start your classes. As long as you have passion and willingness to learn you'll be okay. Hope this helps and best of luck starting school!
Taylor Nuzzolo thank you so much for supporting me! I really appreciate that! You’re so talented as well!!! Hope that you’re doing well and still creating❤️
I'm studying graphic design at the moment and was wondering what my next step would be after getting my diploma. This video has given me some really good ideas to start off with, thank you so much!
Hi Jena! Thank you and I'm so glad that this video was helpful for you. Sure! I would say your first step would be preparing a design portfolio that showcases your best projects and also reflects the type of position that you're interested in pursuing (e.g. Be sure to show some web design projects if you want to become a web designer). Next, build connections and network if you can. This can just help the job search process if you have a network of people that can recommend you, send you job openings, or just point you in a certain direction. It also helps to join a design community (there are so many like AIGA, Ladies Get Paid, etc). Hope this helps! I would be happy to share more if you'd like or have a video on this topic. Let me know and best of luck!
You should definitely think of learning graphic design, web design. Being able to back as well as handle the marketing will make you extremely valuable to local bakeries and restraunts.
I plan to have a career change and pursue graphic design, and this video helps a lot in providing insights into what many opportunities lie in graphic design. Thanks for making this video! More power! :)
Like many of the people on this page I am new to Graphic Design. Everything I've learned about it I'm in love with so far. I'm only four months into my first year of college working on my graphic design bachelors degree. I love art and I love words. These things combined will be an amazing opportunity for me to delve into what I can really make. Thanks for breaking this field down a little bit for me. I've bookmarked this video to rewatch when I'm closer to the end of my studies. Hopefully by then I'll have a better idea which direction I will want to go and I think this video will be helpful then.
Thanks for your informative video. I am aware of packaging and I have been designing rugs as a design student. I am applying for a job as a trainee/apprentice at the moment for a place that does fairly simple projects which I'm really looking forward to.
Thank you for explaining all of these career avenues! I have been hopping from one of these career options to the next as an interest without even being conscious that they all fell under the same umbrella of graphic design! This video help put it all into perspective and made me feel validated like I’m on the right track. Thank you!
No problem Gabi! I’m so glad this was helpful for you. Yes, there are so many avenues in graphic design and I felt the same way. Stay inspired and know that there’s a lot you can do.
Hi Bria.. Great info that I can pass on to my students and possibly use your video. Since there are very few black women in the field of technology, school counselors are constantly looking for creative ways engage and spark interest in the field.
Thank you cousin Tasha! I’m glad that this was good information. Yes I agree, I definitely want to inspire more black students to become interested in the field. Let me know if you come across a student who has any questions! Thank you for supporting me❤️
Timothy bewley, I'm so glad that this video could be helpful to your students! Thank you so much for the feedback and let me know if they need any other info!
Awesommmme, I just started a graphic design degree, and I am totally excited about all the different paths I could take. Your video really helped me understand my options a little clearer. Thank you :) Also, I love that ending :') "I was just yelling!!" lol >.
Thank you so much for this video. I have been going back and forth between an associate's in Computer Information System or Graphic Design and your video has convinced me to pursue the Graphic Design degree.
As a graphic designer for over 22 years now, I can absolutely say that MOST employers expect you (as a graphic designer) to know how to do ALL of THESE jobs. Just check any recent job posting for a "graphic designer". It's so broad, and they think you should and can DO IT ALL. In this career choice-more than most-you are expected to know it all. It's very hard to specialize.
Hey i have a question, do you think worth it to go to college ro learn graphic design, im 19 and i really like drawing and illustration and im on the fence on weather or not i should persue a degree in design or to just do something else like finance.
@@MelbourneAllen-f9xmaybe double major or major and minor in the other one. There is also going undecided in your first year as well as how I’ve heard many change their major. I’m also interested in graphic design but only experienced through yearbook club and high school elective on graphic design I’m in between with enjoying
I have an Associates degree in Visual Arts. I am JUST now learning about graphic design and teaching myself. I'm not sure if graphic design is my "calling" but I do know for sure that it will have a major involvement with my success as an artist. I am completely out of work and am looking for a full time job in which I can be taught these skills from scratch. So my question basically is; do you know (or anyone else that my be reading this that doesn't mind helping me 😊) if there are graphic design jobs out there for complete beginners without the need for a graphic design degree? It would be incredible to find such a job, but I don't know if I qualify or if such a job exists.
Hello so I just graduated from Lattc and I’m going to cal state la in the fall however I want to do something with art being the fact that I love color and art and making things organized and aesthetically pleasing to the eye and I’m still exploring my options. But hearing you talk about each one peaked my interest in ui designer so thank you ☺️
"...or those annoying updates on your phone" Someone had a confrontation with a UX designer 😜 I'm kidding haha. Thanks for the video. Appreciate it. The intro was really funny lol. Made me smile. I'm doing a degree related to design so it's really helpful :)
I’ve been interested in graphic design since I was really young and I’ve put off college since I graduated high school because of the fear of job security and making a living. My local college offers a bachelor communications degree and I was wondering if that qualifies as the same thing? The description is telling me it is but I wanted to make sure I can find a job with that type of degree? Any feedback is greatly appreciated ❤️
I'm a graphic designer and mostly worked on marketing projects (banner ads, emails, social media content, landing pages etc.). What I do is not really mentioned in your 6 types.
Can you inform me more with what you do? I took a interest in graphic design because I wanted to do what you just said, and I really couldn't find any information abt this anywhere
@@tostitos1020 I thought I had replied to you, sorry. Anyway, if it still helps, this role is required in marketing departments of companies or in creative/marketing agencies. They need you to create or adapt a campaign graphic material to different communicstion media. I refer to this as a marketing graphic design role, and it's one of the most common that you can find in job descriptions but it's also not very well paid because it's not that specific.

I love drawing a lot, I draw a lot at a very young age. At first, I'm no good, but after growing up, I've improved a lot. I then went beyond drawing and gave life to my drawings (cartoon and anime), and I got a lot better. I recently do POD designs for shirts, which can be like, for instance, for cat shirts with a funny saying or a phase at the top of the design. I'm kind of addicted now, and customers love my designs. I rarely animate. I would love a job for that sort of thing, but where do you think I should look, and what do you think would be best for me? I don't have degrees.
I am high school student (freshman) and graphic design is my dream job!!! I love to design, create, make... I love creativity, colors and everything that is related to graphic design... But I have a problem! I dont know exacly what type of graphic designer i want to be....I like Package design but I also like Publication and Motion Design... Can I be all three of them?😂😂😂 I know,I have 4 years to figure it out hahah😂
Can two roles co incide for example can a motion graphics be also be a ui/ux designer or that is some not possible or generally seen because of different workload?
There is a lot of demand for illustrators. However it's a super competitive field because it attracts people looking for short term work. I know someone who does it any they also do stuff like product design as well as teaching art classes.
This is completely random, but did anyone else notice the irony of how the GAP website (2:53) had a Black Lives Matter statement but did not featured a single unambiguous black face out of around 12 models. (I did see 1 or maybe 2 ambiguous, possibly biracial faces, but that's consistent with the GAP's brand already). Very random, but it caught my eye and that matters -- the action is more important than the statement. That said, it has nothing to do with Jene, this channel, or the purpose of this video, so I digress! This video was VERY helpful! Thank you!
I am Creative designer with 15 years of experience in the graphic design industry. Specializes in logo design, Business Card, Letterhead design, Brochure Design, Poster Design, Box Design, Sign Design, Label Design, Tag Design and full knowledge of Printing. How can i apply for jobs in abroad?
hi! thanks for such great videos - I'm thinking of becoming a UX Designer, and am looking at either doing a degree route or online bootcamp, if I wanted to live and work in the UK one day what would you recommend I do? as I worry without a degree in design hiring managers won't accept my applications for jobs there! would you say I should rather do the degree route over a bootcamp - I have just finished high school overseas and plan to move to UK next year! would much appreciate nay advice you can give me!! thankyou :D
Hi @neomadega66 it really depends on the job description. Creating marketing materials (such as posters, banners, invitations, etc.) can still be considered a graphic design job. It’s possible that you can have multiple roles in your position, too. Hope that helps!
This video was very informational thank you! I’m new to the technology career world and i’m trying to figure out which branches of technology I want to work in, Graphic Design is definitely one of them. And within Graphic Design I still want to do so many different aspects of it. I love animation, and making 3D models, I love product layout and logo design, so much more i’m interested in but haven’t tried yet. Thank you so much for this video lol.
