"Designing graphics". I remember trying to explain what graphic design to some friends and they managed to conclude that "oh, so you're an art director". Funniest dude in the clip has to be that australian dad holding his kid. "It's a lot of bullshit, it's another wanky trendy crap that goes on behind the scene".
"Graphic design is the process of communicating visually using typography and images to present information. Graphic design practice embraces a range of cognitive skills, aesthetics and crafts, including typography, visual arts and page layout. Like other forms of design, graphic design often refers to both the process (designing) by which the communication is created and the products (designs) which are generated."
