I have had a intrest in working at a fashion magazine as my career path for a while now, I mainly was looking into fashion journalism but I decided I did not want to go into journalism. Graphic deisgn seemed to suit me so much better and I really think it would be a good career for me. When I was looking into colleges they mostly ask for a portfolio. First off is it any type of mediums like paintings and drawings you can put in your portfolio or is it photography and desiging a magezine page. I also dont know hiw much art skills you need becuase I will be a seinor in highschool next year and I have not taken a art class sense my freshmen year. Does this affect me a great deal, if some one could let me no what to excpect and if i would be very behind all the other people who are applying to graphic deisgn would be very much aprreciated. Thank you.
