專業(yè)概況
在這里學(xué)什么?
Communication designers give visual form to information, ideas, and feelings. They inform, persuade, educate and entertain using typography, photography, drawing, video/animation, audio, storytelling, interaction, and space. Communication designers increasingly collaborate with other fields to help meet human needs.
At the University of Cincinnati, Communication Design students receive a foundation in visual problem solving. The core of the curriculum is a series of sequential design studios. These courses help students develop critical and visual thinking along with essential design processes. Students also have opportunities to further develop in specific areas of interest (including graphic design, interaction design and motion design). Students reinforce their skills in the field through several co-ops.
Professional communication designers build careers wherever communication is important. Designers often work for design firms, internal design teams, or as independent freelancers. They have career opportunities in advertising, branding and corporate identity, digital product design, exhibit design, interface design, motion graphics and post-production design, package design, service design, user experience design, and web design. Today's designers may be found working in the healthcare system or for governments and NGOs impacting society. Established designers may create their own firms or pursue entrepreneurial activities. Regardless of their career, almost every designer works on behalf of an interested party (or client) and an audience, identifying specific problems and helping fulfill the needs of both groups.
Success
People who are successful in communication design tend to have visual and kinesthetic/tactile learning styles. Communication designers are creative, imaginative and artistic, and possess good hand-motor skills. They are methodical and process-oriented in approaching their work, exercising good time- and project-management skills. They critically analyze the things they see and contemplate. Communication designers have an enormous curiosity about learning different things. They must possess strong communication skills, and they need to know how to create informative and persuasive proposals while maintaining good client relationships.
Career
Communication Design career opportunities include the design of advertisements, exhibitions, publications, corporate communication, packaging, posters, websites, branding systems, books, signs, magazines, environmental designs and video messages. They may be identified as communications designers, visual designers or graphic designers; and they may work in art direction and design consultation. Students may find employment with a private or public organization or a design agency. Some choose to work on a freelance basis.
Students focusing on interaction or motion design are prepared to work in a variety of capacities. They are most likely to work for digital design firms to develop structural and functional information architecture for interactive and immersive environments. Students could design educational and/or game applications; develop networked communications design for the Internet; create 3-D animation, film effects and virtual reality applications, such as product walk-around and building fly-troughs; applications for smart phones or tablets; work independently or as members of a multidisciplinary team (which may include illustrators, designers, sound engineers, videographers, photographers, writers, film makers, management personnel, etc.).
