I came to work at 8am and had an unreasonable request for a flyer design by 9am, I just used AI to create an attractive text centerpiece and sent it for approval, they love it, what does this mean foe the future of the graphic design career?

LOFL, "Job Stealing Robot" is a trope that's literally as old as labor saving machines. "Artists" who want people to think they are some kind of prophets have leaned on it so heavily and whined so hard that it became a self fulfiing prophecy.
Fucking hilarious; churn out the same basic AF "creative work" over and over like a robot long enough and eventually people figure out that they might as well just use a robot that doesn't infuse its work with self absorbed whining.

>The Judge Dredd writers could it see it coming.
Wow, what visionaries!

>Have you though about hiring our teme Mr?
Non-stop china and india calls all asking to do my design work. I tried it one time, it turned out like shit. Called back and got a "I believe it must be your fault or machine" yet low and behold when I put the time and effort into making my own design it works just fine.

Have any of you guys been scammed by ESL's?

Why not get a barudan? I've been digitizing and decorating with the same barudan machine for about 18 years. They are amazing. Obviously don't get the new single head machines, but a used 6 head should be great and there will always be parts available.

I mean, if you translate it to USD for sure it seems bad, but as I did earn and spent in BRL it was good. I was never in the top edge of most awesome book cover designers, but was above average for sure.

Also, if you are strugling with negotiating pricing, take a look in the Jonathan Stark interview with The Futur about pricing, it helped me a lot on how to negotiate prices and adapt my services so I don't get ripped off. Beware that most The Futur content is bullshit, but this specific interview is good for this skill.

im trying to find a sense of the market. im in the usa and want to know if im leaving money on the table,as they say.
>>
>>457846
Don't know about the market in the USA, but what i can say to you is that there are certain ways to ask for the budget that will help you find a good pricing for the work they are offering. Negotiating face-to-face is always best and the person will not be able to ghost you if you place a number above their budget. Also, you need to know the bare minimum you need to earn to not work for free or at a loss. Oh, and your contract should make clear that revisions beyond some point are paid (my standard is 3 revisions after the concept is approved), and make clear what a revision is and what is a rework is.

I apologize if something that I said is already of your knowledge, I am just trying to help.

Kritais kind of good is much more proper substitute to the Industry(TM) Standard(TM) Adobe(TM) Photoshop(TM) raster graphics editor than GIMP. GIMP developers exist in an autistic hobby silo that doesn't communicate with the Creative(TM) Industries(TM).

But there is no sufficient free and open source analogue to Illustrator, InDesign, Xd that you'd normally use along with Photoshop. So just Pirate Adobe Creative Cloud 2018 (there is not much redeemable except performance loss and in the newer iterations and their cracks make them unstable) or Affinity suite (Affinity Designer merges the historical Photoshop and Illustrator functionality in one project format and GUI like it should) on rutracker.

As a designer you would be relying on vector graphics and layout oriented software like Illustrator, Figma, Xd, Affinity Designer much more so than raster graphics specific thing like Photoshop (unless your some sort of a digital painter or photographer). Raster editor is useful for sketching things with a tablet and doing things with stock photos.

For doing icons and logos and type design with persistent geometric relations between vector shapes I'd even look into capabilities of CAD software like FreeCAD, because Illustrator makes it for very poor and manual tool in regard of that.

I heard that calling companies and annoying them with your stuff is what you have to do to get a foot in this industry

I don't get it personally. Why don't people take E-Mails seriously, they just ignore it. Why is making a call so important, what makes it so different?

I'm a straight white cis male. I just have a personal dislike for incels, since I was one as well. I was consumed by hatred, which was mostly fueled by 4chan

I hated everyone: minorities, women, lgbt, but mostly I hated myself. Once I stopped listening to /pol/, got outside and started living my life, I realized how blind I was.

Since then, I'm trying to call out their bullshit and help other teenager boys who are falling down the same dark path

Super disheartening to see this. Any designer could have done an illustration, any number of local artists could have created a piece for this event. It's a seminal event that marks the reopening of Detroit’s Michigan central. Truly monumental moment for Detroit, highlighted by the crazy opening concert directed by Eminem and it wasn't worth getting a person to do the poster? Very sad.

This is one of those moments in the history of ai that I will look back on with genuine disgust.

A soulful event with a soulless AI facade.
