What is the main purpose of graphic design?

Generally speaking, graphic design is to complete the design of commercial publicity materials through artistic expression! For example: posters, newspaper advertisements, magazine book covers, business cards, etc!

The commonly used design methods in China are computer software design and hand-drawn design!

Graphic design focuses on two words: practice, that is, experience ~

Let me tell you this: the graphic design industry is easy to get started and has a single skill. The serious saturation of the job market leads enterprises to be too picky and pay very low. The internship salary is 400-600, and the internship salary is 1000- 1500.

Even if you want to study, don't look for a pure school for two reasons:

1. The teacher has no actual design work experience or has not been in contact with design work for a long time. What the design industry needs to learn most is the experience of keeping pace with the times. The person who teaches you is inexperienced. How can I give you experience!

2. The school doesn't accept design work, so how can you have an internship? When you graduate, you will have no work experience!

If you still like to engage in art design, there are actually many choices! Generally, this industry is called art design!
