Reading this article, I realize how important graphic design is. You don’t really realize it, but a lot of thought goes into a wrapper of a candy bar, or a logo of a company. And being such a visual society, people are able to differentiate companies just from one symbol. Design is literally everywhere, and it plays such a big part in society. It’s a big business as well, like designing book covers. If the book cover already doesn’t stand out to someone, then more than not, they won’t pick up the book.  Different typefaces, fonts, colors, and sizes can instantly emphasis a simple emotion or word. Graphic designing is just a great way to portray to viewers what you want them to feel or attract the right people.

Something I would ask the author is if there is a high demand for jobs as Graphic Designers? In my mind, I have always known that “making it big” as a (fashion) designer is tough. I wonder if that is the same with graphics as well. I would think, in this time it would be in somewhat high demand. Since we are in such a digital world, everything requires a good visual presentation.
