Your prefered field?

alyCe · 04-12-2008, 09:21 AM

A field can mean lots of things, so I'm leaving this quite open.
1)Graphic design can mean alot of things, branching out, several school has renamed their "graphic design" classes to "mulitmedia design" classes. Do you prefer cross-media work? Print? Web? Something else? Do you strictly do t-shirt design or do you work exlusevly with silkscreen?
2)Whatever media you choose, there are alot of different sectors you'll work with. Corporate, music, fashion, art... maybe you prefer to design for dentists or construction companies? Do you go even deeper and prefer to work with hip-hop companies or roadconstructioncompanies (nice word!)?
note that this is what you PREFER, and would work with in a perfect world

I like identity and logo design the best. Though it can be extremely difficult thinking of good concepts for certain companies and or names, but i like the challenge. Problem is making a good logo can take a lot of time which you don't always have.

I like web design too, but web projects tend to be so drawn out and everlasting with tons of little things to do.

I don't have a preference for what types of companies I like to work for.

I have involved myself in all kinds of design. Although I am least experienced in Motion gfx and 3d!
Print, Identity, branding, information architecture, web, t-shirts and art are some of the fields I work with.

In a perfect world I'd design album artwork. Especially Vinyl covers. And posters for various club nights. Also I'd do graffiti art on canvas for exhibitions. However I mostly do Web design and Front End Development.

I do like web design but I hate all the limitations of the web. Cross Browser issues, Web safe font etc. But yeah it's not the worst thing you can do. And as long as I have my graffiti and digital artwork on the side where I have total freedom then I'm happy.
