In the digital age, where almost any content is given to us through a screen, a multitude of graphic solutions have been generated, among which websites have been the most popular until recently. But we no longer only consult web pages from the computer, but now we inform ourselves, interact and even read through Apps and digital publications on tablets and smartphones.
This reality means that traditional print designers, who only transfer solutions from the printed medium to digital, are no longer valid, nor are computer scientists, who, although they know how to program, do not know the visual reading or communication resources necessary to create a good product.
For this reason, it is necessary for graphic artists to be permeable to the new information supports, understanding the complexity of the process with a global point of view, facing the technological innovations that they entail based on a real understanding of the possibilities that these digital channels offer and adapting print criteria to a new digital communication environment, thus opening up more professional opportunities and even the possibility of creating your own business or your own startup.
