Technology and globalization go hand-in-hand. Globalization unleashes technology, which in turn drives firms to plan production and sales on a global basis. Technology changes the work we do and in nearly all cases, the jobs created by it demand more education and training. It also changes the way business operates by transforming relationships between suppliers, producers, retailers and customers.
Things like the Internet, international exhibitions, low cost airlines, the domination of the English language and globalisation have opened the door to the whole world. It might be in future due to globalisation a lot of graphic designers will stay without work, because people will move to live and work in countries with better wages. I think in next 20 years technology will be the only one way to produce design, because evolved so fast from scratch for the past 20 years it and keep going forward every day. Very often we can hear that there’s something new created. Technology doesn’t stay in one place and in next 20 years we could end with all our design work will be made by machines, we just will press few buttons to make machines working. I think these are negative changes, because graphic designers will stop making something creative using watercolours, drawing or painting. It is not very good because they loose ability to create something good using their hands instead they use machines to create designs. I think before computer was created- graphic design was more colourful and live, people used put their soul into design. But now we approaching to cyber century were everything done with a help of technology. What the effects will be for graphic designers? I think, they will have to learn how to use new technology and software very quickly to adapt to modern world, because most of the customers want the latest designs for their companies, products, adverts. Possible problems for graphic designers could be that it might be no opportunity to get new skills in short time. First of all, new technology and software cost a lot of money and most of companies cannot afford it. It is much cheaper in China, but also there are a lot of fake products for the very low price and the quality for this price is low as well. So there is possibility that graphic designers will not be able to go in one step with new technology. I think, designers can adapt to these challenges if only they learn new software and technology. It is hard to think, what career opportunities we will get in 20 years, because our world evolving so fast, but I could imagine that graphic designers will definitely create their designs with the help of computers, but painting and drawing by hand will be left.
