Visual communication is a field concerned with how information and ideas are presented and interpreted. Closely related to graphic design, visual communication deals primarily in the realm of two-dimensional images, and has found recent application in web design and usability. Combining drawing, illustration, and typographical elements for various media forms, visual communication is also tightly integrated with advertising, which is basically business-oriented paid visual and audio design. Advertising seeks to increase demand for products or services via multimedia placement and strategic promotion; advertising mediums include billboards, television, the Internet, newspapers, magazines, and more. For those seeking a career in visual communication or advertising, salary levels average $35,000 for entry-level Associates or Bachelors degree, to well over $100,000 for successful managers with long-term experience.
