Found out that 70% of graphic design jobs now require video editing skills too. Saw it in a survey from AIGA last month.

My buddy just lost a design gig to a video editor who learned InDesign in a weekend.

The real issue here is that junior designers are going to have to compete with people who already do motion graphics for a living now. If every design job wants video skills, then the actual video people are just going to apply for those same jobs and get them over a pure graphic designer who just downloaded After Effects last week. Entry level is going to get squeezed even harder than it already is. Kinda curious to see if the same survey asks how many video editor jobs now require print layout skills too, probably zero.
