Hi Charmaine

Do not despair. I am a professional graphic Artist /. Designer and the best way to start is to make application to printing companies.

If you are good, they will hire you starting at $10 to 15 an hour to start.

That is where you must start and that is where you will meet many people who will ask you ideas and question about what they want printed.

The boss will always refer his customer to the Art person. This opens the dor because you can always ask them for business card or, keep note of what you are printing for the such as name and phone number.

It willopen up doors. I am into Magazine editing/printing so I get to meet many models and make many friends onthe way. I own my company burt before, I used to freelance which is what you will be doing.

Good Luck and don't give up. apply where I told you and let the rest cometo you.

Everything you're asking comes down to a few things. Do you have any schooling or training in the graphic design field? Also there are a few other jobs in the graphics field that are available if you are willing to search for them. I'm personally certified as a Desktop Publisher. You may not be able to start out making the big bucks right away. You may not even get the job you want. If you are really truly interested in becoming a graphic designer you may have to start at the bottom. And not everyone is going to pay great but opportunity is out there. Keep looking and just because a job pays low down throw the option away. Go in and talk to someone and find out about opportunity to make more money in the future.

If you are unable to think of anything else you'd like to be or do, then you should definitely follow your heart and get into graphic design. It is so important to have passion for what you do - many people never find that.

In Winnipeg or anywhere, your starting salary will be at least partially based on your education, experience and skill level. Be sure you take every measure to ensure you are among the very top designers in your area.

If you are absolutely certain good salaries in graphic design do not exist in Winnipeg, you have two options: 1. Seek employment elsewhere, being prepared to relocate for the advancement your career. 2. Try your hand at becoming a freelancer (independent contractor, telecommuter, what ever you want to call it). This takes incredible discipline, but the advantages are tremendous.

Yes, all web and graphic designers are gay. Straight people can't understand HTML. 3D modellers and animators are bisexual. It gives them an extra dimension over 2D modellers. If you work in a design company, the rest of the staff will assume you are gay hit on you. If you get a girlfriend you will be sacked shortly after. You'd be safer in a 3D modelling studio.

graphic designers are hired by art studios , major cooperation's, clothing stores , museums ...art directors ...major cities will pay more , like i am done w/ school next year so i am moving to new york

u should try going to some art colleges and they could probably tell u
