| Graphic design can apply to just about anything. It can be a
way to visually represent a product, and it can be a way to visually
represent a feeling. From billboard signs on the freeway to ads in a
magazine or even the photo-realistic graphics on the side of a boat or car,
graphic design is everywhere. My graphic design experience includes print ads, product packaging, web design, corporate identity, vehicle art applications, print publication, layout design, and graphics for video production. I work with several platforms and tools such as Adobe products Photoshop, Illustrator, In Design, Premiere Pro, Acrobat, Flash, and After Affects. |

Graphic design
often crosses over several media formats. For example, a web design might also
be made up of the exact same graphics for print ads, brochures, stationary,
signs, and others. As a graphic designer it is important to think beyond the
initial desired use of the graphic and look to design for unknown future uses as
well.
