Graphic Designers

Graphic Designers are in charge of making, exposing and connecting ideas. We are objective people, it means that we design with an specific purpose which is creating an image, graphic product or service that is going to be sold or exposed. This product has to be striking and it has to agree with the customer (directly). Graphic Designers are not artists who work according to the emotions they want to convey (Indirect).

Second Life!

My second life experience was a bit funny because i was recently able to create my avatar, when I enter to the game my avatar was an egg because it didn’t finish loading so, I couldn’t interact with my friends, I was only able to see them and visit the worlds hahahaha I just hoped my teacher could help me with my avatar, I found it a rewarding experience to see how many people can learn through this medium and you can learn about new trends, artistic works projects among other things, for the next class I expect my avatar will load and achieve a better interaction with my friends and the worlds in sl.
