Graphic Design

Graphic Designs represent the symbols of nearly type of media promotions, and advertisements in this day and age.  Hence these designs are presented in and with a variety of different forms and meanings.  They convey many of the symbolism and notions of thought and ideas today.  From postcards to posters, to team logos and jerseys, graphic design places the images as the center piece.  These are the main symbols that express the meaning and the idea represented behind the image.  You can find graphic designs on simple things such as stamps or driver’s licenses and even money such as the eagle representing America and its ideas of freedom and liberty.

            Graphic Design started back as recently as typing and producing typed written material with its keys and symbols as simple as the alphabet.  It explains the importance of typography and how it laid the foundation for graphic design to exist.  From the developments of Claude Garamond to the Sans Serif system, this paved the way for the development of fonts and this more or less standardized the method or style in which particularly letters and symbols appear on computers today.

            Graphics also has a big influence on politics leading from the persuasion of one party from another.  Graphics presents those ideals that are instilled in it, so what it portrays are those very same ideas that are perceived and delivered to the media, the public which influences opinions.  The more eye catching and interesting the graphic, perhaps the more attraction it has to its audience but it also must represent ideas and thoughts that its audience would want to pay attention to.  Graphics holds and represents many of its symbolic value that influences and persuades its media.
