Graphic design is saturated and overhyped in this part of the world

Try
3D modeling / Animation

The limitation with 3D modeling is the hardware requirements, you can get away with doing hobbyist modeling on ordinary pentium laptops, but to do professional stuff you are going to have to invest a lot into computer hardware.
Especially the animation render times on small computers can be frustrating.

Everybody and their mama are now graphics designers

All Digital Skills are marketable....what is usually the missing link is the knowledge on how to create and grow patronage (clientele).

mikywonder:
I have trained upto 80 graphics designers
And most of dem are doing well

like how long does it take to learn this for a person with average computer knowledge?

Zegemi:
Yes it is.

Learn it, make sure you also learn photoshop.

Master the art of selling your skill so that you will not be coming to Nairaland Front page and be disturbing us with adverts.

Okay nice

Graphics Designing is a good job because it's all about creativity. If you're creative and good on graphics, you will get a good pay from customers that knows the worth of good designs and not SHAKUKU customers.

.

Saturated market though, getting clients is also a challenge. I am on LinkedIn, and I have seen many professional graphic designers looking for work..

I'm not a graphic designer...

I don't claim to be one...

But I have graphic design skills as a Web and Content person.....

Ask me what's making hot at work place and bringing stuffs?.....my graphic design skills

Because I can design all stuffs and I know where to get already done ones and use either AI or PS to edit and get what I want.....

Knowledge is power...but knowing where knowledge is and how to apply it is THE MASTER KEY.

Bro, help a brother pls. What's the website? because I design for my company too, almost everyday. Tired of starting from scratch all the time.

LordVoldermort:

I'm asking because lately that is the most common side hustle advice I keep hearing...

Lots of guys I know are doing graphic designing and i feel that is a problem, since everyone is doing graphic designing that means the competition would be very intense...

So i think there must be some marketing and branding skills that must be learnt side by side with graphic designing for it to be lucrative.

It's a lucrative side hustle if you can invest in a freelance website for branding and marketing. This will help you to charge premium rates for your clients. But getting clients is the Herculean task except you learn and master digital marketing as well which is not difficult.

Learn am!

Graphics design is a talent so to say, knowing how to design is different from having the creativity to design.

beardedboy:


OP, follow this.

Are you an animator?

If you want to be paid very poorly, be totally under-valued and deal with idiots all day then graphic design is the career for you

Stop abusing this profession.
