When in school studying graphic design, we learned all the
standard graphic design programs, including; Photoshop, Illustrator, Quark, and
some Corel Draw. Please remember, it was
about ten years ago when we were in school so we understand some of these
programs have changed, and some are obsolete.
The point is, in two years you can only learn so much. It would be safe to say that a college
graphic design program is a brief introduction to these programs, and becoming
a real designer.
So why are we really saying all this?
We are not bashing on school we believe that schooling IS
very important; however we feel it is also very important to find a job working
for a company after school. Many
students are eager to begin working for themselves immediately following school,
and from what we’ve learned, this would be a mistake. If you get a job working for a company, you as
a designer can continue to grow. We
learned more in the first 3 months of working, than we did in the 2 years of
school. If you can, find a company that has a broad range of clients. It will help you grow in more than one style
of design.
Over the years the project diversity continued as did the
growth of our skills. We continued to
work with some of the biggest and smallest clients in Toronto. Teaching us how
to manage projects and cater to every client.
Every client is unique and has their own sets of demands and challenges for
the graphic designer to navigate. You can imagine how different designing the
Legend’s Hockey Hall of Fame book was from a toilet puck ad.
