hey
yeah, the original post was deliberately vaguge and well, to some, provocatively annoying.
but i do motion graphics as well. what i wanted to bring (as should be brought at any time, not just once) is how this line of work has lost its luster, or become to commodified to such a degree than anyone and their granparents can do it.
what comes to mind is the bell curve, or the egg yolk diagram - there's lots of crust, and it's building up because of it's accessibility, but the real "meat" of it is making itself more rare. does that make sense?
my issue is not with motion graphics - that's just an easy target in this community. what i was trying to get at is how "craft" seems to have been lost when everyone was drooling over version 6.1.1.1.2 of after effects or trapcode's new plugin, and in the process, forgot what made "process" so interesting in the first place.
my mini spiel.
