Description
Summary:Information about Singapore’s creative industries are, in general, not readily accessible. While it differs from industry to industry, most of the creative industries are not well-documented, researched or even publicised. This often leads to misconceptions about these industries and what a career in these fields entails. Thus, the idea behind ‘We, the Creatives of Singapore’ is to “demystify” the creative industries in Singapore and to allow the wider public to have a better understanding of a career in a creative industry. For the scope of this project, the focus would be on the first volume of the publication, which would be about Singapore’s graphic design industry. The outcomes of this project consists of a publication covering the current state of Singapore’s graphic design industry, through the perspective of the practising designers themselves. The same content is translated over onto a website, to allow for further updates to the information, as well as for the continuation of the project.
