    If you had a 15year+ career that went from:

    Print briefly > Flash/Web > Motion for 10 years.

    How would you transition out of Motion Design into anything that doesn't require video work. I don't mind it being 10% of the workload, but not 100% of it. I'm far more passionate about typography, layouts, and static graphics.
