2. Research Intentions
What I will research is 3 different artist and will go in depth of their life what they did to get to where they are now, if
they have any books about themselves or their work. Some images of their work too as I think its helpful when you
can see their work. I’m thinking on researching photography and graphic design what the meaning is to them both
and then find people who have businesses with them topics so I will do more graphic designs than photography as
my work is focused more on graphic design than photography but I wanted to include that because I will be taking
photos so I wanted to get some information about it to see what might help me when it comes to taking my pictures.
I will try and include some booms about them if there is a book about some of their work with an image of them so
you know who am on about so it’s a clearer picture when reading my work.

3. Graphic Design
A graphic designer is a professional within the graphic design and graphic arts industry who assembles together images, typography, or motion graphics to
create a piece of design.A graphic designer creates the graphics primarily for published, printed or electronic media, such as brochures (sometimes)
and advertising.They are also sometimes responsible for typesetting, illustration, user interfaces, and web design.A core responsibility of the designer's job
is to present information in a way that is both accessible and memorable.

proportion, scale, repetition and rhythm, and unity, all with illustrations. Discusses how important balance is to creating an
effective design.
Photography
The word "photography" was created from the Greek roots. Photography is the art, application and practice of creating durable images by recording light
or other electromagnetic radiation, either electronically by means of an images sensor, or chemically by means of a light-sensitive material such
as photographic film. It is employed in many fields of science, manufacturing (e.g., photolithography), and business, as well as its more direct uses for art,
film and video production, recreational purposes, hobby, and mass communication.

7. Things I Have Learned in My Life So Far
The projects in this book began as a list Stefan Sagmeister found in his diary under the title "Things I have
learned in my life so far." Given an incredible amount of freedom by some of his clients, he began
transforming these aphorisms into typographic works.
Sagmeister became the subject of controversy after his performance of a lewd joke about
animal fellatio at the annual web conference Webstock in Wellington, New Zealand, in February
2017, embarrassing a sign language interpreter and upsetting some in the audience. The organizers
apologized to the interpreter in person, and to attendees following the incident, and on
Twitter. Webstock organizers also followed this apology up with a longer statement on their blog.
Just as film, art, music, and literature have the power to move people, Stefan Sagmeister's innovative work shows that
graphic design, too, can cut to the emotional quick. His desire is to transform stale thinking, and Sagmeister: Made You
Look does just that.
Compelling, honest, and intensely personal, Made You Look covers 20 years of Sagmeister's graphic design. With a text by
design historian Peter Hall and annotated with Sagmeister's own writing, the book features images from the studio archive,
as well as specific influences and reference points for his projects and ideas. Fully illustrated with a red PVC slipcase and
silver-gilded pages, this monograph is a compilation of practically all the work Sagmeister and his studio ever designed up
to 2001, even the bad stuff
