Miri-ans' perspective in Graphic Design

the role of a graphic designer is to solve "visual" problems. with the inner born aesthetical sense, and the sensitivity towards colors and combination: designers convey and communicate through art pieces which consist of layout, typo, visual arts, packaging and etc. graphic designers are often visual orientated, and are train to perceive things graphically. the success of a designer is to meet the need of their targeted audience. and of course, one of the element that a designer should have is "creativity".

being involved in this field, especially in miri, i personally felt quite upset on how the mirian perceive the role of a graphic designer. we are often exploited. i remembered i was so underpaid. it is just cruel to see an advertising and printing company is paying RM800 for a graphic designer! in their mindset, they thought that all we can do is , to "produce artwork" using "computer". often time, we are being perceive in line with the secondary graduates... and i personally felt sad that the malaysian is unaware with "intellectual property". that is why pirated cd is everywhere!

the wikipedia translated intellectual property as: "a legal field that refers to creations of the mind such as musical, literary, and artistic works; inventions; and symbols, names, images, and designs used in commerce, including Trademark Patent Related right. Under intellectual property law, the holder of one of these abstract "properties" has certain Exclusive rights to the creative work, commercial symbol, or invention by which it is covered."

just imagine when you put all your efforts into an art piece, and other people just take it as theirs without any acknowledgement... how will you feel?

i really hope that the graphic designers in miri can stand up and educate the people! it's not about just taking in but it's about sharing - the passion for Original art & design~
