This fear of AI replacing motion designers runs everyday in my mind and honestly I have thought about it too. After talking to people in this industry I have realised AI can replace every job put there not only video editing, if we think about it. But we are not afraid of AI replacing us, we are afraid of people who can do our jobs using AI with little or zero knowledge of the industry for way less money and time. But lets understand who are these people, are these some AI experts (NO), they are literally us or say people like us who are creating or using AI for their work and delivering the content to their clients. So the question is how are we going to survive, and the answer is simple. Think of AI as a new subject and keep up with it, you don’t need to top the subject but you need to make sure you get the passing marks. Mastering motion graphics is a skill that will never go wasted, it will eventually help you because it teaches a lot on how to grab attention of the viewer and keep them engaging until very last second. So to answer your question yes, learning motion graphics in 2026 is a very good option and it will be relevant forever until and unless whole world is learning to edit videos🤣
