Media Design

Graphic design, sometimes misnomered as a field of advertisement, is much more broad then one might think upon their first foray into reading about the subject. Graphic Design covers a spectrum of advertising, design, branding, newsprint, and message delivery. The aesthetic appeal of graphic design is obviously where the importance lies, but while this is true of all forms of advertisement, it's important to note that graphic design encompasses something much more broad then an advertisement, seeing as it is the design, and therefore the quality control of a certain product or product placement. New media outlets, such as the internet are replacing old media outlets, such as the Television, and newsprint, thus changing the face of graphic design to fit the needs and appeals of the new generation, at this point, graphic designers no longer have to stick to a traditional format, and abide by specifics, as the internet is an open forum for any type of design, and therefore, the idea of what makes a graphic designer a graphic designer have obviously changed as well.
