PPP Task//What is graphic design for//Part 2

With Fred we were look at what graphic design is for. There are 5 main catergories which graphic design is split down to:

- information & way-finding

- publishing & editorial

- branding & identity

- product & packaging

- retail & promotion

These catergories arent fixed and design work can cross between the subjects.

We started to look at Editorial & publishing. This catergory can broken down to:

- Magazine design - content/type/image/format/text &grid

- Book and Publishing - books/posters/cd design

- General Publication - similar to editorial publishing but for a wider audience.

For the task on this we had list 10 subjects within each category an then write 10 examples of this subject e.g magazine design - design magazines - grafik/creative review/blueprint etc

I was given general publication to research into, we managed to write down 10 subjects

- brochures

- annual report

- fanzines

- catalogues

- zines

- newspapers

- flyers

- magazines

- informational books - library

- leaflets

but then found it hard to give examples of these because they are so broad and aren't normally in the public eye all the time, so for my research i have decided that i will 10 different examples of these based up good design and bad design.
