No one can say that with the television, film and internet, designing visual content is an art and is no longer mechanical. Ever watched a movie trailer that made you want to go and watch a movie, ever saw an advert that made you want to go out and buy a product, and what about TV/Cable/Satellite Channel Indents , ever seen a promo for one of those channels, especially MTV and thought, 'yer got to check that out'?
