T.Ryousuke SG Anyone study design? I'm considering taking up this course at NTU. What career can a product/graphic designer have?
asdfzhao SG very much about luck... if u r lucky, ur product can reach anywhere in the world.... but singapore not a lot of employers...
sermodabian SG You don’t have to have a degree to be a graphic designer what. I dunno whats the difference of the courses offered at NTU though, but shd be more on animations and stuff?
asdfzhao SG if u noe design, u can check out tis site, http://www.dandad.org/studentawards07/briefs/02.html if win confirm got ppl employ u.... finalist aso gd enouf liao.. no garuntee plus chop though... [edit: u need 2 b a full/ part time student 2 jion tis 1] if u dun noe design, sdam requires a portfolio 4 u 2 get in...
asdfzhao SG u may not need a degree, but its better 2 have 1.... they have a course 4 animations i think, but graphic/product design is pretty much static
T.Ryousuke SG Today call NTU, they said must submit portfolio, I got no protfolio . But I can draw, paint- so so, Photography ok. Duno what they want? So this Sdam course take how many years, course fee?
sermodabian SG Do you have any of these stuff you drew or paint or your photos? Gather them and put them nicely. Anyway for product design, can also consider NUS Industrial Design. Very small cohort and very intense course, that spans design, business and engineering. Quite a number of the students have won some design awards and got good recognition.
asdfzhao SG they want to see wat u have done... they should b finished works ready for presentation... do some touch up and put them in a A2 carrier?
asdfzhao SG no... cannot... develop them and make sure they are presentable... model? 4 product design i not so sure... i tink is how the prouct wil look like...
asdfzhao SG err.... for graphic design u may wanna create a fictionous advertising campaign, or just touch up your works, make sure its presentable, not some sketches of dragon ball.... y not u put up ur works 2 c? or if u have deviantart...
