GRANT UNION AT RAINIER
A career in digital arts or graphic designing is more a marrying of art and commerce than it is one or the other. Graphic designers make use of a variety of prints, electronic and film media, in order to come up with designs that meet their client’s needs. A graphic designer makes use of Adobe Photoshop, QuarkXPress, Illustrator and/or Macromedia Fireworks, Flash, and Freehand to create the overall layout design for magazines, newspapers, journals, corporate reports, and any other type of publication that requires professional designing.
These types of projects usually involve the use of vector images that can be easily manipulated. Graphic designers also play important roles in creating promotional displays, outdoors advertising, as well as some marketing tools for various types of businesses. Graphic designers are the ones who design effective and unique company logos and signs that help promote businesses.
