A career that you can pursue with the skills you are learning in this course within the design field is a product or industrial designer. These are the people that design everything we use in our everyday lives from the shoes we wear to the cars we drive. Before any product is actually made, a designer creates concept art to allow the people that will ultimately produce this product get a clear idea of what it will look like and how it would be used.
The designer must think about the client the product is intended for when creating their designs. Who will actually be using this product influences everything about the design of the item. For example a product intended for children will appear vastly different from a product intended for an adult. In addition to drawings of the product from varying angles, designers also include something called "call outs". Call outs are text next to a certain area of a design, drawing attention and further description for important parts of a product that the designer wants the manufacturer or investor to know about. Lets examine the examples below by answering the following questions together....
