>With this technology a 2D vector drawing can be arbitrarily rotated in 3D, resulting in a 2D vector art representing the object from the new view.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfct0aH2COw

Graphic artists are officially BANKRUPT AND FINISHED. With this a single dude with some SVGs can create an entire animated film. How does it feel to never have to redraw an SVG ever again? Haters will say we need to ban this technology!

Not for this single release, but gd is moving fast to be another job where squads will be reduced in size. I remember the times when I would hire a indian studio where they would remove any bg for USD1 and I would upsell it 3x, and now they don't exist anymore because there is 10 different ways of removing the background with a couple mouse clicks.

Take a look in this video below. Man, I work on food packaging design and we have plenty of work adapting the same layout for many different packagings sizes and shapes (boxes, pouches, labels on glass, label on cans, etc) and fuck, it will reduce the workload to at least half. Many people will be laid off.

Man, if I need to adapt a 200g chocolate bar packaging to the 90g size it will cut a LOT of the job. It still will need a designer hand to make it work, but the workload will reduce a lot, and it will mean people will be laid off.

honestly though, if you think about it, this tool is just removing all the busy work. Who the fuck actually thinks redrawing shit or making a new poster layout is actually a worthwhile endeavor? It's a waste of time. The vision matters more and these tools will liberate people from having to waste years learning a technical piece of software and hours redrawing boring shit so they can get down to the real shit that matters: THE VISION. There is a reason graphic designers bow to their employers, because their vision is more important than your obsessive retardation of "skill" building.

There is some value to developing the kind of discipline necessary to follow procedure, but without an understanding of why that procedure exists and how it developed, just going through the motions won't necessarily translate to better quality work output.
Thing is that even where procedures and techniques have been rendered obsolete you can still learn why they were established and adopt the related discipline without having to master that technique...it's just a matter of having the desire and integrity to do it regardless of how easily you can get away with not doing it.
>>
>>458223
I understand what you mean, but please remember that we once used to manually draw mechanical drawings and engineered buildings using paper. Automating some goyslop posters and globohomo svg object rotation is bottom of the barrel shit in the grand scheme of the bullshit world we live in. It's a useless skill just like PROFESSIONAL mechanical drawing is. PROFESSIONAL poster re-layout and PROFESSIONAL re-drawing of SVGs is useless because only the end output matters. The process can be eliminated entirely just like manual mechanical drawing was.

>no client hands you this kind of sketch
Have you ever done a custom lettering by hand and took the pain to vector it? The time will be cut in half at least.
Have you ever got a cheap fast job from a small bussiness to make their sketch into a nice image they could send on whatsapp?
Have you ever work in a team where pencil and paper is common to sketch fast ideas?
Fuck man, did you even work in the field?

About the supposedly "bad design" that you said, every version need a little bit of rearranging to make it work properly, but well, it will be a 5 minute job instead of 1 hour creating 4 size variants.
>>
>>458224
>I understand what you mean
You obviously don't if you honestly believe that-

>It's a useless skill
>only the end output matters.
>The process can be eliminated entirely

The problem is that you see the "skill" as nothing more than the physical aspect of moving a drawing implement across paper, when the skill to do that and have an end output that is reliably good enough to meet professional standards of quality is MUCH more than that.

The person with those skills has know how to view and assess the basic image and extrapolate it to a finished product and also how to assess an allegedly finished product in reverse to determine what might be missing or could be done better. That person can not only look at and assess human work, they cam also do the same with machine output.
The guy whose entire experience is running a machine that does all that stuff for him doesn't know what he doesn't know.

what are you even talking about? why would anyone care about a custom handlettering font in this case?????

Your problem is that you cannot separate physical work from finality. There is zero difference between a human creating a work and something that was generated that happens to look like the work of a human. Think about all the objects in your life, in your house, that you use every single day. You do not know who made these objects. They simply exist. The same applies to graphic design.

I mean, what is the difference between enslaving people to pick fruit, paying workers to pick fruit, and having a robot pick fruit? Or a genetically modified fruit vs a fruit that just so happened to have the right genes? To the person eating the fruit, nothing because he is not aware of where the fruit came from. It's the same with graphic design. No one genuinely cares until you get in front of them and start moralizing like you are now. And even then, the percentage you manage to make aware of the ethics, the world is like a raging ocean pounding against your tiny lighthouse of ethics spinning around hoping to beam out its signal. But, you will erode like all rocks do. You will drown to the bottom and your nutrients will become anew in another form that will not care.

>not that anon
never cared about that argument. it is a retarded main point in a place that revolves around nameless posters. even if you are correct it shouldn't matter for
the discussion...

maybe I am a fool. even likely.
doesn't change the fact that nobody posted the original link to the vid nor showed actual use cases that go beyond cheap magic tricks.
so I doubt being the *biggest fool in the room*, which interests me more than what you are trying to accuse me of.

either way.
feel free to answer this fool over here (no matter which anon you claim to be or not to be).
I summarize:
>is this a joke?

the link two both videos were provided, anon. Here they are again:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGgdC3RvyMQ

And there are no other videos because it was announced literally 2 days ago anon

>is this a joke?
No.

>no client hands you a sketch like that.
Doesn't matter. Replace the sketch with an image of any poster you were inspired by.

>the screenshots show no real use in vectorizing hand lettering that go beyond old techniques.
It auto converts it to a fully editable poster, replacing detected fonts with what you have installed and copying all the styles

>if the result doesn't even create interesting invitations to kids parties, then what is it even good for?
Use your imagination. It's a jumpstart to get rid of boring work. Put all the data on your poster then drag and drop JPGs of your favorite movie or band posters and it'll copy all the styling :)

dont be retarded, anon. please.

Graphic artists are more necessary than ever, but the tools and resources make it easier than ever.
The demand for the skill isn't disappearing, but the supply of decently skilled graphics people is bigger than ever.
It's turning more into a general labor position, except instead of being good with your hands and willing to exert yourself physically, you need to be good with computers and willing to exert yourself creatively.
It's this way more than ever, but it's been going this way for a very long time.
Most people who study and get a job in graphic design move onto other fields by the time they're 25. They'll retain and use their design skills, but the design skills are one discipline of many.

This is true and also depressing as fuck, I know so many graphic designers who can't draw or paint for shit, its insane that we created this world in which honest beauty and aesthetics are not only dead but actively discouraged in favor of some esoteric numbers-based wankery
If you're one the few people that actually grasp traditional mediums like drawing painting fairly well while also being proficient with digital programs I think you'll have no problem finding work but I'm afraid the damage to one's soul might be too much to bear for the average person
