Okay two things one I apologise for my grammar since it isn't my strongest point and two if this is in the wrong place I am also sorry moderators.
So I'm new to world of graphic design I would like to specialise in logo design however I'm using gimp and have no idea on how to use illustrator nor can I purchase it at this point in time. So I am not capable of producing vector files which I am aware will be or is a potential problem for me.
My questions are:
- Is it better to represent myself if you will as an individual or as a company
- What would you suggest would be a suitable resolution for logos.
- Does anyone know where I could get a template copywrite form so that I can hand over logos I design.
- How would I go about gaining clients and creating a positive reputation for myself.
- What would you say is a suitable rate to charge per job or per hour as a beginner?
- How would I go about building a strong looking portfolio?
- Do you find social media has helped you get your name out and if so which platform if you will helped you most? (Facebook, twitter, etc)
- if you have any ideas or things to help a newbie I'm all ears.... well eyes cause I'm reading but you get what I mean lol.
I do intend on going to uni to study graphic design hopefully in September, until then just wanted to see what I could do and get some research done.
But I really do appreciate the help it means a lot
Kind regards
