In response to a course brief, BA Graphic Design students Ellen Mercer and Lucy Streule spliced together clips from films where characters tell each other: "FYI, I’m a graphic designer."

Ellen suggests that “this might be a reason why the profession and title are misunderstood".

Course info: http://www.arts.ac.uk/…/undergradua…/ba-hons-graphic-design/

Ellen and Lucy hope that FYI, I’m a graphic designer will open a dialogue on this problem of misrepresentation.
