Throughout my internship, I learned many reliable skills and understanding to better perform my graphic design in real life scenarios. The first is researching and knowing the policy and rules of food information needed on a menu board. There was some debate of keeping or removing the calories counts, but we agreed to keep it. The calories count was an issue with the design, but I was able to manage a balance of information and design for the menu.
Another is knowing the system that will be hosting the design. The company purchased a new system to display the menu boards on the monitors. They needed me to learn and know how it works and how to fix any issues. The new program within it allows us to publish images of the menu through wireless connection. So it has the flexibility to be updated at home if need be.
