That said, if you were to ask me to pick between the two, I’d more than likely go with a movie where marketing is one of the main elements.

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.
