In the last week's survey, we asked our readers - Do you find that graphic designers who are perhaps not familiar with the industry create more work for you?

No           98%
Yes          2%
  • Graphic Designers bring new concepts to creating signage, which pushes us to be a bit more innovative, however, if they are going to dabble in the signworld should be fully aware of the products available and what they can do and also the ohs issues when it comes to installation.  
  • YES! Hence I set up my own mid-weight design business (the Pickle Factory, free plug! LOL). Production experience is rare amongst most finished artists, and often creates more work for the production crew.
  • Not only Graphic designers, Architects are just as bad when it comes to construction. I'm sure some of these well educated experts expect spit balls to support some signs. No visible fixings and sizes that don't suit standard sheet sizes are just a couple of issues that we encounter on a regular basis.
  • They certainly make it harder. More and more designers are moving over from web design, and they just can't grasp the concept of anything bigger than A4. The biggest problem tho is that you try to give them some direction, and they treat you like you are an idiot. If you want the real definition of frustration, try waiting on a designer to do a design on a coach, when the biggest thing they have worked on up until then is a brochure. Meanwhile, the clients deadline is looming and the designer hasn't got a clue. The truly sad part is that they get paid for the design, more then we could ever charge.
  • No Not really. What I find generally with graphic designers, especially the sole operator is that their ego's outway their abilities. Many do not know or understand the actual processes used or how the product they requires is produced. nor do they understand how to set up a production file correctly or that you don't need to "CLIP MASK" everything..... So in respect to your question: They do create more hassle and work when we are required to set up their files for production. Do they supply us with more work, the sole operator - NO as they generally only have small, cheaper jobs, whereas the larger reputable marketing and advertising firms can be a lucrative market to be associated with.
  • Graphics created for stationery or web content does not always translate into great signage. Convincing the client of this and recreating suitable art requires time, effort and diplomacy. On the other hand there are professional graphic artists who produce striking print ready signage. Another problem is the use of effects which produces unpredictable results when ripped and printed.
  • They are only taught how to make things look "pretty" not practical.
  • It can be a pain if you have supplied them a template, they generally alter it for one reason or another which will complicate matters at our end. Other than that I find them most times not to be a problem especially if they have some understanding of how things are printed.
  • 90% of the artwork supplied I would have to alter to suit signage or substrate. Most Graphic Designers design for a letterhead, it looks good on paper but no where else. It has forced me to start my own design business specialising in signage design.
  • Without doubt - am sure they live in a world of the fancy computer equipment - without knowing what the end product is - an unreal world - I had a designer come the the factory for two hours & she'd expressed she learnt more in those hours then she had in a week at study ????
  • Yes it is probably true, but the creativity and quality design is also higher as a result. As well as doing work for graphic design agencies, we also have an in-house designer. Since his introduction the quality and professional appearance of our signs have improved out of sight. If design was left up to signwriters then we'd just be designing whatever is easy to make!
  • If only they were taught the various production procedures after their work is approved by client. This problem has been with us since the year dot and still we have to put up with the problem. Perhaps ASGA could liaise with the various design colleges in order to get the production side put into their curriculum. On the other hand how many designers are self taught, perhaps these are the buggers that are the real problem.
