Business degree vs arts degree. Can I still get a creative job with my business degree or is it too late for me?
Hello everyone! I really am passionate about the arts, specifically film and I do a lot of editing, art and design stuff on my free time. I did illustrate a children's book for example back in high school, however, I did end up choosing to major in business and management for uni. I guess my question is if it is still possible for me to have a creative career in the future, perhaps as an art director, graphic designer, maybe somehow working in the film industry (if there are any others please mention them as well)? At the time, I chose to major in something other than the arts because I have to be able to have a form of "safety net" and because of my background, I figured an office job will also help me with stability and to continue pursuing my dreams. However, now almost a year later into my course I am worried that I closed doors for myself and I won't be able to have any sort of creative job at all. I feel a bit lost and worried right now, because as much as stability is important for me and I want to be able to take care of my parents I also have this deep ache in my heart that I cannot do what I love the most.
What specific skills or experiences do employers in the graphic arts field value the most in new graduates, and how can I make sure my degree program helps me build those #fall25?
I graduate highschool in May. I have been taking the graphic arts classes the past couple years and I am one of the top students in that class. I would love to make a career out of this and this is what I enrolled to do in College next August. I am from a small town, so I just want to be sure that I am making the right choice, can be successful and make a good career.
How to network successfully in sports photography and sports graphics?
How do network in the field of graphic design and photography? I always feel strange and awkward trying to talk to other designers and photographers because I feel like I am interrupting them. I want to stand out to people and have them think of me for internships and job shadowing, but I am lost in how to do that. But I know the only way to succeed in that field is by creating those relationships to get my dream jobs like taking photos and making graphics for a professional sports team, but how do I do it?

I know for a fact that i want to be a graphic designer now. Can someone help me breakdown the different jobs that are under that category?
So I know that I want to be a graphic designer now, I've made a video for my school and I've made personal videos, I've taken pictures and figured out somewhat how to use a camera. I figured out how to use simple picture editing software, as well as simple video editing software and I've learned to use drawing software as well and I'm still learning new tricks every day when it comes to all of those. I like video editing and drawing on my computer the most. So I would like it if someone could break it down for me. Under the category of a graphic designer, I know that there are plenty of other jobs so if someone could break down one or two of those jobs into what it actually is, so that way I have a better understanding of it that would be great! #college #career #help #teaching #advice #graphicdesign #jobs #job

How can I choose a profitable career when my interests don’t align with many?
I’m an upcoming senior in high school and I’m starting to seriously consider my future path. My issue is that my interest in the preforming and fine arts outweighs much of anything else, and From what I know those Aren’t fields that often get paid very much. I enjoy designing and drafting so I was looking at careers in the architectural and graphic design fields, but I hold more passion for fiction writing than I do Math. My other interests are things like theater, music (theory and performance) I do find things like psychology interesting, but that field deals with directly helping people, and jobs like that, (teacher, therapist, psychiatrist,) would be awful for me. So I’m at a huge roadblock. Any help? #arts #music #career #career-choice #help #architecture #graphicdesign #starvingartist #decisions #stuck #confused #help # #psychology #profitable #money

Taking inspiration from Childish Gambino, how can I have a more open rounded and creative career like him?
Childish Gambino is a one of a kind person and truly feels like getting to a spot to where he is is very difficult to get to. I want to be able to have the same creative freedom as him. I want to be able to make songs and music and direct shows the way he does. What steps can I take to become an individual that an pursue a more creative path? I thoroughly enjoy making and producing music, but I don't know the proper steps since I'm considerable concerned with not being able to financially support myself if businesses are not interested in me. #actor #musicproducer #producer #singer #graphicdesign
I'm in the 11th grade and I've already started exploring my future career, what are some skills I need to be developing in graphic designing based on my passions and interests?
At school, during my freshmen year, I was starting to get interested in visual arts and designing my own things. During the middle of the year, an art academy came to visit my school during career day, I saw many things that school had to offer referring to my career that I want to pursue. Then, in the middle of February, I got to visit the campus and check out the different fields, like the music production, visual art and many other fields, that were interesting. I've heard of different other art schools in the Bay Area, that I want to check out also, like Cogswell College and California College of the Arts. What are some more helpful tips for me in the near future? What are some other things I can do in the graphic design field? #graphicdesign #art #fine-art #digital-art #design #visual-arts
I'm a graphic designer, but I can't draw. Will this hurt me?
I'm a graphic designer (think layouts, typography graphics, and aesthetic designs) but I've never been able to draw. Seeing as that's a big part of designing, will this hurt me in a real world setting? Might be important to note that I do actually also have a background in photography, so I could take original images, just can't draw. #graphicdesign #graphics #illustration #digital-illustration #graphic-design
