72dpi is for newspaper
publications @ 300
for stock they want highest optical res at 16bit scans, file sizes at least 48MB, and that's halving the file size when finished from 16bit to 8! rgb - for stock.
for publications i still scan at 4,000dpi and send them off high res jpgs at 300dpi so the print size is like A4 or bigger - so they can resize to fit their layout..
traditional design as in print/page layout? you work with inDesign?

She did actually mention she uses slides, so scanning in a slide at 4,000 dpi still results in a rather workable file size.

I think the trick is to start small and build up your portfolio with some real commercial work, try asking around new club nights, events, even local small businesses and offer them a good deal or even to work for product eg free drinks if you were doing a club flier. You wont make your fortune but anything to help get a foot in the door, and work in your portfolio helps.
The other thing that will give you a big advantage if you want to do print media is a really good knowledge of prepress requirements, I applied for a few full time design jobs a few years ago and that was the only thing I was really not up to speed in, they really should be teaching it at 1st year in design courses imo

Depends what you want the feel to be. if you want a more dishevelled feel, make it a bedroom floor with clothes everywhere.

I dont really know what to say because I really got into this work by accident.
I started out designing bits for my own shows and next thing you know somebody else asked me to do their stuff. Then someone else asked and it kind of grew from there. Ive never really been interested in working for somebody else as basically I know I'd end up going to the back of the queue and doing nothing but crappy typesetting and shitty business cards whilst the older designers would get the good jobs which actually make use of your creativity.
The main thing to remember is that something which is great design which looks good from a designers point of view isnt always the best thing. The main thing from something you design is that it achieves its purpose as a promotional item. If the job doesnt get the point across clearly and easily then whats the point of it? It might be the greatest piece of artwork ever made but if it doesnt tell the general person looking at what its meant to say, then its nothing more than a waste of paper.
I dont think work experience will help you much as I couldnt see any design company giving any decent work (or any work at all) to somebody on work experience. Do you know anybody who owns a business or something like that? Offer to design something for them free of charge and if it gets printed, boom, there's something for the portfolio.
Or if you know any DJs maybe design a mix CD cover for them. All these little things help build a portfolio but make sure they arent all the same style or for the same kind of industry. An employer will be looking for variety, and a designer who can offer their business something that their present employees cant.
I really dont know what else to say.
Just because I give you shit online, doesnt mean I want to talk to you when Im out. Fuck Off!!

TeknoRocker All the young designers that approach me - I point in the direction of large corporates, usually in their marketing/communications departments. All these companies have design requirements ... and in most cases have no idea how to present themselves. Some do have advertising agencies but many do not. Get yourself a portfolio together and go and impress their HR departments. My company also uses freelance designers ... if they have the goods.

Ya fooken' dickhead! Im freelance and I have the goods!
But on the other hand, the thought of you approaching me makes me nervous. Theres something about old blokes hanging out at raves that makes me a little scared.

psilo-PSY-be.. the shadow people are back quick question for any1 that would know. would like some 3d creation software like bryce and photoshop etc.
is it possible to get it off limewire? if i can i'm going to have to put in a registration code yeah?
i got full version of microsoft office and a shonky registration code that actually worked!
not confident that i could do the same with more hardcore software like bryce..
should i try? or is it a lost cause? coz the download time is intensely long 4 me

Flippin' out Sick! I love pieces that stand out like that. I have this thing for Anime and pop art type girls. For some reason they just agree with me. I'd like to try doing it myself, but I am highly doubtful, unless I had something to copy from.
