A Graphic Designer Brand Creator having been a professional graphic designer for over 30 years, I have witnessed significant changes within the creative industry. The pace of change has been incredible. In the ‘old days’, setting up a design agency required a substantial capital investment. Today, you could be up and running with minimal equipment, broadband, and the right software subscriptions in very little time. However, certain things have not changed, for example, the need for young designers to obtain experience, and begin their career.
