My dream career is to be a graphic designer. I think it would be fun and interesting. It would be cool to be able to make 3d animated stuff for movies.

A graphic designer Creates graphics for television and computer-generated media. Uses computer software to design new images or to modify existing ones. They will usually prepare rough sketches on paper of what they are going to make before they start the final on computer.

Working in this profession would mean being inside most of the time, making repetitive motions constantly, sitting most of the time, and using your hands for almost everything.

In this job I would need to have very good reading comprehension, listing, writing, monitoring, and more. I would need to be good at critical thinking and I would need to know how to use computers. I would have to think up new designs and ideas and work with a design team.

For this job I would have to be good at art and using computer graphics. I would probably at least need a Bachelor's degree but different positions have different required levels of education
