Worried about my future career as a Graphic/web designer...

Post Reply New Topic

Today, a creative director from a graphics corp, came for a lecture to tell my class about Interactive media work. He showed us his powerpoint. And told us that it's now when you have to choose which way to go(animator,designer,etc....), no problem there, designer for me... But when he told about the monthly salary, it was low. And for some reason, I became depressed.... At the same time, it was pressuring work, actually designing as fast as possible without bothering with perfection. I'm afraid that this would make me loose my appreciation for the art itself...

I'm not sure what's wrong with me when hearing about getting a job and stuff? Having to sit in a cramped cubicle, pressured to rush work without thinking of perfection?

You could always peddle your wares all around the area or in online positions as a freelance web designer! That way you'd possibly get a bit more creative freedom and time to make things look as nice as you want them to.
