I'm a senior in high school and I'm still unsure of what I want to do. I'm pretty creative, and I love building and designing things (real life or on a digitally). I've been leaning more towards either an engineering major or a creative design major. Jobs like Game Design and Graphic Design interest me. Are there any others that would be similar to these jobs? I'm not much of an artist but I do have the mindset of one.

I'm about to start a graphic design job and am slightly worried that I won't be able to do everything that is asked of me. I'm not too bad with Photoshop, Indesign and Illustrator but I could certainly improve. What are some of the things that are expected of me? On an added note – how about specific things I should know how to do in Photoshop, Indesign and Illustrator?

I have a regular job during the week but also have a freelance graphic design job during the evenings and weekends. Do I need a business license to do this or can I just write it off next year at tax time as additional income? Also, what can I write off as a deductible at tax time for this freelance work? I know I can write off my transportation costs and materials but is there anything else like internet, etc? Thanks!

A 2007-06-27 job posting on NYASLA's web site suggests it's AutoCAD (see below), but previous Answers have suggested Maya. Have they changed recently?

I'm thinking about being a graphic designer when I get older but I want a job that is fun and that I enjoy. Are there any graphic design jobs where you get to work with celebrities or travel? Also if I were to work on the Ellen Degeneres show or if I were to design products or logos for Justin Bieber, would I actually get to meet with them? What kind of jobs are there for graphic designers? I don't want to be sitting at a computer most of the time.

I usually look for volunteer work in the graphic design field so I have some volunteer work related to my career interest. I check volunteermatch often an 90?f the graphic design jobs I find require people to be over the age of 18. The jobs they ask for are fairly simple and any experience designer with a creative taste can do the job but I can't show interest in the task just because of my age? Shouldn't the talent be judged by the portfolio they present as well as their experience?

As in, what is the title of the position within the organization. I know most car manufacturers have a creative design team that creates the overall image of the vehicle, but that's not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for the person responsible for choosing colors of the vehicles, deciding whether to market special edition models, and deciding what option packages will be marketed to consumers. The official title within the organization is all I need. Thanks!

I currently have a BA hons degree in textile design in which I specialised in print. I have been finding it increasingly difficult to find employment in textiles and was thinking of trying for graphic design jobs as well, but although I have the design knowledge and can use some software as photoshop and illustrator, I would like to know how to use other software and learn to do web design etc. Does anyone know any courses available that I can do part-time to get these additional skills.
