This is Brian Palubiak. He's a page designer.

What's a newspaper without photos?  What's a newspaper without graphics?  What's a newspaper without design?

Boring.

Brian Palubiak, is one of our page designers at the Buchtelite.  As such, he is one of the people who is in charge of making our pages pop.

"I think there's probably more opportunity for creativity here," Palubiak said.  "It's not dry.  We're open to all sorts of ideas.  I can do illustrative stuff as well, it's not all technical, eve though there's some of that stuff too."

Palubiak also believes that working for a newspaper is particularly great for graphic desingers.

"It's good experience,"  he said.  "It's good, it helps you do something that's a little more real world.  I think meeting the deadline might not be as big of a thing at other jobs.  And working with other people and bouncing ideas off each other is nice.  Here there's a group of people working together, and it's good to have that exposure."

Palubiak understands that a newspaper isn't all about design though.  You've got to have good stories too.

"I think we have interesing articles," Palubiak said.  "It's not always just based on current events or things you'd find in a normal newspaper.  There are special topic sort of things that we talk about that are kind of fun, but that still address important issues as well."

Have a good day!
