What is a Graphic Designer?

TGNs Banner 

A Graphic Designer is a trained professional who can visualise an idea and reproduce it visually. Almost like a psychologist tapping into the mind of a person in order to see what they see! It is one of the most difficult things to do as most people do not know what they are visualising until they see an actual picture. It’s not the client being difficult that’s just how it is, humans. A Graphic Designer would more likely have an art driven background and a resume containing art based qualifications. They should be a patient person with a compassionate temperament in order to maintain good client relations. A good Graphic Designer doesn’t need to be able to draw they only need to have a good eye for detail and an aptitude for precision. They should have good colour coordination and have a huge passion for art in all forms. With all this in mind all these traits should be reflected in the work they produce. The final product should also be sensitive towards the requirements of the client and not themselves.
