This assignment was very beneficial, it forced me to take a good look at what sort of opportunities are out there pertaining to my field and I am amazed at what i’ve discovered. My field consists of many components. There are various routes that a person can take when studying communication design. I, myself am indecisive about what subject I want to focus on when I am ready to pursue my masters degree; because I am still trying to figure out my strengths. But first I must develop work experience in my industry, as a student seeking a bachelors in communication design management I would need at least 3-5 years of experience. Proficiency in mostly Adobe Indesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator. These are skills I have developed throughout college. They must have an eye for color and color correction, a skill which comes naturally. The ability to maintain workflow is what this career path is all about and I have yet to refine these abilities through practice. It is strongly desired that this person have great communicative skills. I have a lot of growing to do in this aspect, through practice I think I have what it takes to become a very effective speaker. I feel that I have so much more to learn on the job, I haven’t obtained enough knowledge throughout my college courses because much of what we need to understand requires plenty of practice.
