CGarchitect’s Jeff Mottle discusses upcoming changes in the visualization business that he predicts will take place in the next few years and how they may affect current CG imaging practices and jobs. “Visualization in most cases will not be the realm of specialists like it is now, but in the hands of all (…) how you decide to act on that knowledge will mean the success [or] failure of many in our business.” More on CGarchitect. (Note: look for the section titled “Big Changes Ahead”).
I don’t agree with the author.
Of course 3d software will get easier to use.
But that doesn’t mean everyone is suddenly a 3d-artist.
That’s like saying everybody has a laptop and Gimp,
so why do we need any graphic-designers?
