What's the difference between UI design and graphic design?

The main difference between graphic design and ui design is that the implementation process is different, the number of people who complete the design work is different, the company type is different, and the workload is different.

First, the implementation process is different.

Graphic design is realized by printing technology, such as a business card, which needs to be printed before it can be used. At this time, we need the help of printing technology.

The realization process of UI design is to use metric code. After design, UI design can realize its function through program code.

Second, the number of people who have completed the design work is different.

Graphic design One person can complete the whole process of design. After the boss or customer provides the demand, the graphic designer can directly complete the design.

UI design needs team members to design together. For example, designing an APP requires the boss or customer to put forward a requirement, and then the product manager, interaction designer, visual designer and programmer cooperate to complete it.

Third, the types of companies that work are different.

Generally, graphic design companies are traditional enterprises, and most of them are advertising companies.

The companies that UI designers usually go to are Internet companies, such as Baidu Tencent.

Fourth, the workload is different

Graphic design usually needs one or two pages, such as business cards, only two sides, just two sides.

UI design, at least dozens or hundreds of pages. For example, an APP has login page, startup page, registration page, main page, setting page, function page and so on.
