Becoming a Graphic Designer: A Guide to Careers in Design, by Teresa Fernandes, Steven Heller
konpyuta's review
3.0
I liked the different interviews of designers actually currently in the field, particularly when they talked about how they got started as designers or into that specific field.
Some of the questions may need to be reworded or presented to interviewees differently because they end up kind of pointless and repetitive when most of the answers are more or less the same.
For example:
"Do you have a personal style?“ 90% said, “No personal style in graphic design is bad!”
“What has changed in the field since you started?” 97% said, “Computers”, and only about 30% of those actually had interesting stories about the pre-desktop-publishing age.
