What is graphic design?

May 24th, 2011

A lo-fi vox pop made in 2002, that asks people on the streets of Melbourne the basic questions about graphic design. By Studio Pip and Co. and Dogma Productions with Andrew Pegler. This short film was made to gather the general publics view of graphic design for the not-for-profit organisation Australian Graphic Design Association. All permissions were asked and granted from the various respondents. All respondents were thanked after their response. This film is an invaluable learning tool to students of design and was posted on youtube for education and non-profit purposes. The idea, production and responses were supplied gratis. Our thanks again to all involved, especially to all the members of the public who willingly contributed their ideas and opinions on graphic design in the public space.

    @chingyat06 graphic design in a small and overly self-important subset of visual communication. I should know, I am one, but I don’t wear trendy glasses.

    Graphic Design is the communication of ideas and information. Ideally, communication is made as effortless as possible, with no barriers to easy communication. Information is prioritized.

    One glance should give a perfect menu of the information within. At a glance you see the product or company or idea, and the eye is lead easily to each subsequent piece of information, intuitively following a clearly laid-out map, no compass required.

    @GraphicAbility not at all, it’s just he is not articulating what he really wants to. seems like an attempt to look like he knows what he is talking about. Much like your nickname that needs to verify your ‘graphicability’

    Speaking of “What is Graphic Design” I wanted to contribute and learn from the Graphic Design industry. I wanted to post a video response of a cartoon I made about the difference between Art & Design. Just a bit of humor. I hope you enjoy it. =)
