  1. What is Graphic Design?
    After reading this article, I realized that this really was a topic that interested me. I learned that there are different categories when it comes to graphic design and that with each of these categories come different ways of approaching the audience and how an ad or a logo is presented. There are many things that need to be taken into account when it comes to designing something new, and this is something that I was aware of, however, I never really knew what these things were. The ways in which logos are presented really have to be well thought of before being designed. The design must appeal to the audience and this is something that the designer must know and think of before designing.

    The question that I would like to ask the author is: Is there a way that is best to persuade the audience? I think that image based design would be a better way of persuading the audience because it might be a way to really leave the viewer thinking and allow the design to remain in their memory and really make and impact. I also think that images are able to portray a message in a different, and better way than words do.
