Graphic Design

[sublime35]

I know, I made a thread about a week ago about Comm. and Indust. Design, but after doing some reading, I've realized I'd probably be happier with graphic design.

Is there anyone here who's in graphic design?

And is Visual Communications, the same as graphic design or are they just similar?

I do web and graphic design. The pay is decent but the 9 hour days of starring at a computer screen with not a whole lot of human interaction are tiresome. Lately my legs and ass have been killing me from sitting for so long. My eyes are going bad from looking at the screen so much and i have lost my desire to for the job. If you are they type that likes to draw and create in your FREE time not just on the clock then it is a pretty good field but i will be changing careers to digital video editing in the near future. If there's anything you want to know feel free to ask

Yeah I love drawing and designing things...have since I was little. But having an office job is what bugs me. i like being active when I work, carpentry, mechanic...u know, those types of things.

If you are artistic by nature you should have no problem with the passion to do your job but if you like to be active you may have a problem with going there and sitting all day. Try getting an intership or entry-level job and test the waters before you spend all your time and money learing a field that you may not like
