Graphic Designers?

Graphic designers design and create layouts for magizines and newspapers, brocheres, advertisements, business marketing materials, Web pages and other publications. The skills that they need are the same skills that we are learning in Desktop Publishing. If they can draw by hand is helpful but not required because most of the drawings are done on the computer or downloaded from cameras or created from pen tablets which allow them to draw or edit by hand. They must also have good communication skills to create the product that everyone likes. One-third of all graphic designers work in their own homes. Doing that, they need to hire their own workers, they must also provide their own equipment and their own benifits. Demand for graphic designers is expected to increase as eletronic publishing becomes more popular.
