<br />
A '''graphic designer''' is a professional within the [[graphic design]] and [[graphic arts]] industry who assembles together images, [[typography]], or [[motion graphics]] to create a piece of design. A graphic designer creates the graphics primarily for [[published media|published]], [[print media|printed]], or [[electronic media]], such as [[brochure]]s and [[advertising]]. They are also sometimes responsible for [[typesetting]], [[illustration]], user interfaces, and [[web design]]. A core responsibility of the designer's job is to present information in a way that is both accessible and memorable.<ref>{{cite web<br />

Designers should be able to solve visual communication problems or challenges. In doing so, the designer must identify the communications issue, gather and analyze information related to the issue, and generate potential approaches aimed at solving the problem. Iterative [[Prototype|prototyping]] and [[user testing]] can be used to determine the success or failure of a visual solution.{{Buzzword inline|date=August 2019}} Approaches to a communications problem are developed in the context of an audience and a media channel. Graphic designers must understand the social and [[Norm (sociology)|cultural norms]] of that audience in order to develop visual solutions{{Buzzword inline|date=August 2019}} that are perceived as relevant, understandable and effective.<ref name="nasad">{{cite web|url=http://www.docstoc.com/docs/110496132/NASAD-Competencies-Summary-Degree-The-BFA-in-Graphic|title=NASAD Competencies Summary}}</ref><br />

Graphic designers should also have a thorough understanding of production and rendering methods. Some of the technologies and methods of production are drawing, offset printing, photography, and time-based and interactive media (film, video, computer multimedia). Frequently, designers are also called upon to manage color in different media.<ref name="nasad"/><br />
