Graphic Design

Many things use graphic design that you don't even realize. The best way to describe it is, in a movie when one camera cuts to the next and it feels natural like a fluent motion. It is like this in graphic design when you look at a menu and you don't even think about it because it just feels natural, its designed how you expect it to be organized and it just looks appealing.

It isn't just confined to menus however, someone somewhere designed every different sign manual pamphlet or website. Not only that but they made it look easy as well.

Using different typefaces and colors a graphic designer is able to achieve and portray an emotion or idea. It can be from organizing words on a page and choosing the font and color to creating a picture or design keeping in mind the feelings behind each color. The best way to understand what graphic design is, is to picture life without it. It would be boring not easy or fun to read and would ultimately create a monotonous environment everywhere.

I really enjoyed this video because it was fun to watch and helps to get across its message which is what graphic design is all about
