Green Game Packaging - Paper or Plastic? [Aug 30, 2008, 12:09 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Wal-Mart promotes green gaming has word that the retail giant has met with
representatives of Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo to discuss making console
gaming more environmentally friendly. Topics included giving system lower power
standby modes, and the possibility of reversing the recent evolution to plastic
game packaging by returning to paper and cardboard packaging, with Wal-Mart
saying that would reduce the industry's carbon footprint by the equivalent of
taking 4000 cars off the road.
Graphic Media is the exact major, which puts me in pretty much anything relating to pre-press and production itself. Outsourcing has not been a big issue in what I'm doing, and there's a lot of different places I can take this, including a lot of research-related roles.
even worse than i thought. pre-press and production has become overly automated. clients now expect large companies to have online services for uploading and approval of press ready files. soft proofing is now the norm. no need for production anymore. pre-press can be done by a single person instead of a dozen which was the norm a few years back.
the company i work for is slowly transitioning to web production. we partnered with a company based in india to convert press ready files into flash artwork for web publishing. our pre-media department is quickly shrinking. every month we have layoffs. i wish you well in your chosen field but its not too late to change.
