When we think about silent comedy, we naturally think of black-and-white movies from the 1920s, featuring classic stars like Charlie Chaplin and Harold Lloyd.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

Editors are a busy lot, always deciding what goes into a publication and what does not. Hence, it’s no surprise that many print magazines do not encourage unsolicited submissions.

From visually impaired users who rely on assistive technology, to people with a temporary injury such as a broken arm, tech users are forever diverse and beautifully unique.
