Is it the writer that comes up with the idea, and the editor simply implements that idea, or do you need to submit a chart along with your article? And, should you get paid more for submitting a graphic along with your article? Thanks. |

A designer would not normally come up with content on his/her own. However, at one mag I worked at, we had a full-time Infographics Editor, who was responsible to produce the content and to work with the Art Department in developing all charts/graphs. |
