Working as a graphic designer .. hmm how hard is this? I noticed that most people who are not in the business don’t know exactly what this job is about and how things work. We just presume they know but how can they? I don’t know what other jobs are about in detail and I’m not sure I would understand all if someone would explain it.

Bad things happen. Murphy law says that your computer will crash just when you need it most.
A hard drive failure, you deleted accidentally a project folder or reformatted the entire drive, deleting everything. It’s impossible to plan all disasters, but by backing up your work, you can keep your data safe. When something does occur, you’re able to restore your files and keep working.

The client says OK and the project is ready to go to the printer. After you prepared the file for print you should also keep in mind a few tips:

FIAR is an annual event that takes place in Sinaia in the last week of May. It’s a huge event that gathers representatives of all major European insurance and reinsurance companies which use this opportunity to meet with their high level counter-parties from Russia & CIS.
This year me and my colleague worked on a huge list of printed materials, web graphics and animations. For 3 weeks we created all from brochures, roll banners, to flash animations and video montage. It wasn’t easy but the results made us very proud. Enjoy!

The “Romanian Insurance Awards” event was held on 31 March and this year was very special as we celebrated the 10th edition. Me and my colleges from the Art department worked on many printed and animated materials to ensure a great visual for the event. It was a great project to work on. Enjoy!
