Finally, I have some time to read the books I’ve bought few weeks ago. This is a quote from “Graphic Design For the 21th century” by Charlotte & Peter Fiell:
While the boundaries within the possibilities of design are changing day by day, the creators are becoming more responsible for the messages hidden in every piece of their work. Graphic design will spread a lot more than simple matter, beauty, emotions or style. It could even be a vision for life. The only thing missing so far is a bit more pathos…
Mainly, the book contains the quotations and interviews of successful graphic designers, where they give their vision of the design & its understanding.
Recently, I’ve decided to leave the programming until the beginning of the studies in FIT, and do something not related with programming (at least directly).
Thinking about the earned experience, I was amazed with the directions of my interests which I can write down in my CV. For more then 2 years I was keen on audio editing by using Sony package software.
Lately I got to video editing, and moved to Adobe software, from Sony Vegas to Adobe Premiere in video, from Sony Sound Forge and ACID Pro to Adobe Audition and Propellerhead Reason, not mentioning Adobe Photoshop for a bit of design, with further experience in Web-Design.
Nope, it’s too boring to list all the things I was interested in (and still interested in some). To create the full picture of it, the only aspect of design was missing – 3D modeling, which I decided to get into. The myths about the difficulty of working in the 3D disappeared in few days with a help of tutorials, manuals and other literature concerning the subject. 3D Studio Max shocked my with built-in abilities of modifying the 3d models, and creating anything you imagination sees; well-designed interface with overloaded quantity of functions doesn’t bother the user, few hours of practicing, already gives the user the understanding of menu & function placement concepts. No wonder why 3ds max is one of the leading 3d platforms right now for 3d graphics.
I hope I’ll have enough patience and courage not to study the main concepts of it, but also to work with it in future.
