I'm actually deciding what to choose for college, I'm VERY indecisive between design and multimedia, i really really love graphic design and that's kind of what got me into choosing arts in high school (and bc I love art in general), but I also love video art and stuff like that and one of my options kind of has it all combined so I think your video help me a lot :) thank you!

@BenGKaiser 6 лет назад

So glad the video helped you out. Are there any other questions you have that I could answer in a video on the channel for you? Thanks!

@EveDahlSwag 4 года назад

I studied Visual Communications at Brown College for Graphic Design, and half way through the coursework we could choose whether to continue down the Graphic Design track or begin Multimedia track - the best of both - so perhaps the school you choose has such curriculum that will split your coursework

@nastja3736 4 года назад

I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I've always loved to draw, but recently I discovered I really enjoy photography and video editing too. Based on feedback from other people I'm equally as good in all of those things. But I also feel like I enjoy doing those things more for myself, not for like an advertisement for a company or something. I would photograph people or cars and sell posters etc. I would maybe have my own brand of notebooks with different designs on it, or printed shirts, esp. like a brand with designs that have japanese cars on them, or girlier designs. Then I was thinking of having a car related RU-vid channel with footage from various car events. But I still don't know what to do for my own career because working on advertisements doesn't seem interesting enough for me to pursue. Any advice?

@BenGKaiser 4 года назад

Start making consistent content that you are interested in, because chances are it will take time to grow a following and monetize your interests via shirts, notebooks, etc.. :)

How do I make my parents let me take multimedia arts? I really want to take it since I have a passion for films, video editings and arts in general

@BenGKaiser 5 лет назад

I would go with "Design and Development"... than maybe work on your writing skills on the side to add that bit to your skills arsenal. Having good writing skills can be a great boost to your resume.... especially when writing cover letters to future employers.

My advice is to learn how to create content around the niche that you are pursuing. Learn the basic skills you need. You do not need to study the skill set, just get the skills. My advice to you would be to watch Gary Vee - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6vCDlmhRmBo.html

Please don't go back to college. You can learn webdesign in WAY less time online. I would either find a RU-vidr you like and see if they have online courses you can take. This will save you time and money. You could also start getting clients as you are learning your skills.

Hi dear Ben G KAiser, can you please give me clear examples of "multimedia creations"? Could it be a website? So you call the person who made it "a webmaster" right? But if the the website has video, photos, sounds ( as it is mostly the case), the would it be the work of a "multimedia designer". Am a bit confused about who make what (exact product). THANKS YOU in advance for your explanations, Alex

@BenGKaiser 4 года назад

Multimedia is a combination of media within a project. If you built a website, produced videos, and photographed the images then that would be the project of a multimedia designer.

@BenGKaiser 5 лет назад

The principles of Graphic Design are timeless. If your are motivated enough I would learn graphic design principles first and then build the skills for a Multimedia designer.

@rubosrex7303 5 лет назад

Personally i would say Graphic Design is better to start off. It will teach you how to form a strong, clean structure and make elements pop-out. It will also give you a good understanding of how to direct peoples attention through layout and color management and guide them through the design itself. Having a couple years of experience earned through practice will arm you and make things so much easier for the Multimedia part of it. NOTE: From my personal experience as someone who started as a Graphic Designer and then learned how to be a Web Designer and is currently working on both depending on projects in a large company, i would consider Graphic Design to be a stronger foundation, Graphic Design to Multimedia Design is a smoother road because u learn the principles of Design in general (layout, color, spacing, element positioning etc.) which will come very handy when doing other stuff. P.S: Theres nothing to stop you from learning both. It's very easy to transition between them nowadays, with YT videos to teach u the basics, sites like Skillshare etc. With enough time dedicated, you can learn both.
