There are certain reasons why criticism is essential for us. Firstly, criticism is one of communication way. Receiving critics in design industry from someone means we have chance to learn more about audience who consume our product or creation. Aside from learning our customer, feedback is also useful to strengthen our product (Thomas, 2012). Sometimes, critics may be uncomfortable to listen but it is beneficial to improve the quality of our creation. Indeed, critics nowadays are delivered either straightforward or sarcastically. As graphic designer is able to declare message through their creation, graphic designer owns a social cognizance - to partake in the excogitation of world improvement.

In fact no matter how different is culture, language, origin or ethnic of a person, using picture is a suitable way to convey the message because it makes sense to everyone. For example, visual communication can be applied when we are trying to market our product or service for target audiences which are originated from various countries and communicate using different language. So, the message can be understood by people from different places and culture (Switzer,2015).
Not only flexibility but also, simplicity is one of the advantages of visual communication as our message will be recognized quickly and easily. For instance: it will be much simpler if a direction is in visual form rather than in written form.
Last but not least, immediacy benefits for those who tries to communicate intricate data including statistical information, it can be represented by a graph or chart to illustrate the progress of sales for a product. Therefore, graphic design is more attractive and captivating in delivering any

As can be seen, those general trivial problems and wishes which are written sarcastically, is printed on the packaging itself. For instance: problem in punctuality (Fig. 7) or difficulty in searching goal of life (Fig. 8). Moreover, the aim of marketing the pill is to raise fund for those people who cannot afford HIV medication. Yet, those pills are purely placebo since they are made of peppermints. Ergo, the profit of selling the “First World Problems” pill will be donated by this organization to those people who are not able to afford to purchase HIV medicine.33263422615091Figure 5.

“1,201,100 persons aged 13 years and older are living with HIV infection” (AVERTing HIV & AIDS, 2014), but a number of people weren’t able to get help early on, “ 1.5 million people died of AIDS-related illnesses worldwide in 2013”(World Health Organization, 2014) . Stars like Magic Johnson are able to go on and live a healthy lifestyle because he could afford to spend thousands of dollars on medications. Some of the unintended consequences of a profit- driven health care system include the fact that people are dying. If people can’t pay for treatment, they may not receive treatment at all, or the quality of treatment will not be the same as it is for someone with insurance. This is demonstrated in “The Immortal life of Henrietta Lacks,” since Henrietta was a poor, black woman, they
The 1950s saw the full development of a design movement that is apparently the most critical visual design style of the twentieth century as far as its sweeping effect, its life span, and its scope of pragmatic applications is concerned. The style started in Switzerland and Germany and is often alluded to as Swiss Style, yet it is formally known as the International Typographic Style. Its strength in numerous territories of graphic design covers a twenty-year period from the early 1950s to the late 60s, yet it remains impactful up till the recent times. As Richard Hollis puts forward in his book “Swiss Graphic Design: The Origins and Growth of an International Style, 1920-1965”, the Swiss Style has vital elements that are widespread throughout
Assignment 1: Explicating arguments The article Marcia Angell wrote discusses the ethics of running clinical trials in areas of poverty such as third world countries. It is largely stressed that the well-being of participants should be the main priority of the study, above research goals and quick results. She explains that participants in clinical trials must receive the best-known treatment available when part of the control group; otherwise, researchers would knowingly be giving participants sub-par treatment compared to the drug being studied. To enact justice, even those living in third world countries should be receiving the same treatment that a participant in a first world country would receive.
BOOK REVIEW: GOMBRICH - The Visual Image: its Place in Communication “The Image and the Eye: Further Studies in the Psychology of Pictorial Representation” was written by Ernst Gombrich, an art historian. A chapter in this book, “The Visual Image: its Place in Communication”, it provides an opportunity for him to discuss our visual era, specifically the importance of identifying the potentialities of an image in communication.

During my job shadow with Ms. Eileen Chalupa on Doane’s Campus I learned how to be creative, come up with my own style of graphic designing, and most importantly to never give up or lose hope on a project that someone has asked for. Her job is the head graphic designer at Doane University. Some questions that I asked her during the job shadow were what are some positive aspects and negative aspects of working as a graphic designer, are the hours flexible for the job and another question I asked was what training did she do to get ready for this type of work and if it required any type of education to complete. One of the reasons she chose this career was because her mother went through the desktop publishing program at Southeast Community
Artwork is all around the world, but is it really worth the resources and time for it? In the essay “Is Art a Waste of Time?” by Ryhs Southan he discusses the purpose of art and explains the group, Effective Altruism.

Graphic Design has always been an ever evolving and changing field. Graphic design-like activities can be found throughout history like the ancient cave paintings or the manuscript of the Middle Ages. As the true purpose of graphic design is to communicate, technology has since made this process more effective, extending the reach and spread of information. This allows graphic design to have a higher level of impact that cannot be achieved without the use of technology.

“Visual Arts cultivate thinking, innovation and collaboration.” As I write this paper today, I realized how each of us analyse everything in our lives without even meaning to do so. The museum that I decided to visit virtually was the Offizi Gallery in Italy. Located in Florence, this gallery included numerous paintings, sculptures and ceramics. The art piece that I have decided to write an analysis on today is The Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli.
For example, some people have problems in accessing the internet while others have confessed the positive impacts of technology in their lives. Technology has more positive than negative impacts on graphic design. Indeed, technology has made promoted the work of designers using printers, the internet, scanners and design programs. Technology has positively affected the design industry by helping designers improve on their skills and work. ( Cresswell 178).

Often times, we can see lots of people debating whether art is important or not. This happened because the lack of exposure and knowledge that has been taught to them. Art can help to shape the society and affect the society to broaden their view of perspective in life by referring on the artworks because each work of art can give different meanings to life.
These texts are analysed through multimodal discourse analysis to identify how verbal and visual signs relate within the text to create a meaningful message (Kress & Van Leeuwan, 2006). Kress and Van Leeuwan (2006) provide three interrelated systems which are used in the formation of multimodal text and the meaning within the text. These systems include informational value, salience and framing. Informational value is the placement of various signs in the multimodal text and how this placement contributes to the meaning of the text (Kress & Van Leeuwan, 2006).
Jessica Young topic on the speech is graphic design. She thoroughly explains what graphic design is and expresses how important is it and why we use it. She mentions that graphic design also involves more than just computer automated software but also gestalts psychology.

Most importantly, do you have thought before about how important design is? Some people does not appreciate to the art that created by designers and artists because they unrealized the importance of art and design. Because of that, I would
