Visual Cues What’s In An effective design brief can also help you be more productive. If the brief is clear it will also shorten the time you spend on your clients concepts which mean more time to spend on other paid design work. If your client is paying a fee for concept, then you will make more money! Graphics programs are the tools that allow an artist to create and edit all graphic elements used in graphics design and multimedia applications. Focusing on graphic design, we need to familiarize with the concept and techniques in developing graphic artwork. An artwork or simply art includes photos and illustrations of different types intended for printing and presentation. In computer graphics, graphics software or image editing software is a program or collection of programs that enable a person to manipulate visual images on a computer. Computer graphics can be classified into two distinct categories: raster graphics and vector graphics. Many graphics programs focus exclusively on either vector or raster graphics, but there are a few that combine them in interesting ways. Generally graphic programs can be categorized as drawing, paint or image editing programs. You will probably need to use a combination of these programs when designing a multimedia title. Several of the high-end programs include features from three categories (drawing, painting, and image editing). What’s New In this Information sheet, you wiil learn how information-oriented, systematic graphic design can benefit graphical user interface design in conveying information 5 about data and functions. Some basic principles of visual communication can go a long way towards achieving better graphical design. What is It 10 Basic Principles of Graphic Design 1. Balance Balance lends stability and structure to an overall design. To understand it better, think that there’s weight behind each of your design elements. Shapes, text boxes and images are the elements that form your design, so it’s important to be familiar with the visual weight each of those elements possesses. Now, this doesn’t mean that the elements always need to be distributed evenly or that they must be of an equal size — balance is either symmetrical or asymmetrical. Symmetrical balance is when the weight of elements is evenly divided on either side of the design, whereas asymmetrical balance uses scale, contrast, and colour to achieve the flow in design. This vibrant design is a distribution of elements (stripes and colours) to achieve an asymmetrical balance. 2. Proximity Proximity helps in creating a relationship between similar or related elements. These elements need not be grouped, instead, they should be visually connected by way of font, colour, size, etc.
