Hi Ashira, Here are the fields of Vision and Design. Vision requires an ability to absorb knowledge and find new perspectives. Then, the perspectives must be presented either as a Story or as a Documentary. This can also be translated into a new product, a new game, a live film, an animation, or a new graphic/ illustration. Design is a field that is age old and has been evolving every year like science. The world has changed a lot and a lot of new and wonderful careers in design have come up. Sometimes, student artists are too much enamored by Fine Arts preventing them to look objectively at Design. Again like science it pays to be at the cutting edge. For e.g. science students do better if they go for CS or IT since that are areas where development is taking place rapidly. Similarly in Design the cutting edge areas are: 1. UID/ UXD. 2. 3D Printing. 3. Immersive Technology. 4. Augmented Reality. 5. 3D Projection, etc. Besides, of course Game Design and Animation. Of course at the top of the pile lies concept designing, these people are required by event companies, animation studios, VFX studios, and of course game studios. At this stage, you may want to understand the creative world and the careers it offers. Interiors, textile as well as Web Design rely on the same skills - your layout skills and color sense. Journalism also is at this level and relies on your language skills & knowledge of history and current affairs. A little higher perches graphic design, fashion design, jewellery design, acting, and fine arts which rely on one of your artistic skills - sketching and imagination. At a similar level perches VFX as well as motion graphics which rely on one of your artistic skills - Cinematographic skills & imagination. Then come careers like: 1. Animation. 2. Film Making. 3. Game Design which rely on multiple talents like your authority over sketching, acting, direction, voice, sound, writing, storytelling and problem solving skills, etc. Any extra skill can be used in this. So, it turns out to be one of the most challenging as well as satisfying careers. Sure not recommended for the weak hearted. Do remember that digital design careers give better profits since they can be delivered anywhere in the world and hence may earn in dollars - resulting in better rewards for designers.

Hi Ashira, Previously, Mr. Arun rightly suggested that, Industrial/Product design stream has lot of scope and flexibility to switch to different domains. In addition to that there are around 20 different streams in design field in India. If you check www.nid.edu you can explore about all of them in detail. I would suggest you to go through all streams and see which one interests you the most! Instead of taking approach of 'which field has more career opportunities', you should think of which one interests you the most and you would love to pursue as lifelong career and that's very important. Design is booming in India anyways, so you will get career options. All the best! -Ashutosh
