I have to do a report for my school counslers on what i want my profession to be when im older. I would really like to work at a magazine. The part that i believe i would be most interested in is deciding the layout of the magazine, like picking what pictures and words go to togther and what pages to put it on and what the cover should look like. So my question is what is the specific job title for that ? and what type of degree or training is required? Thank You for your help!!!

  1. Hey there :)

    It is the art diector or graphic designer.

    Some people have a flair for it, and don't need to study too hard, however most people goto school to study design.

    You will need to learn how to use indesign or quarck as well as other multimedia applications such as dreamweaver, flash and video.

  2. i believe t's the editor...

    not 100% sure.

    send a mag. a message on myspace or somethingg..

  3. The art designers design the layout. Practice first by downloading a photoshop.

  4. Graphic design may be the way to go.  Read a little more at the Occupational Outlook Handbook.  It gives information including job descriptions, education/training requirements, and earnings (national averages).
