1990–2011.

Abstract
Using his own experience as a witness and participant in the convulsion that
the BBC, and specifically the BBC Graphic Design Department underwent,
the author aims to illuminate the cultural change to the creative industries
in many advanced industrialised countries that has occurred over the last
20 years. Many industries in the past have undergone similar ruptures and
transformations and they will again in the future. The author hopes to draw
lessons from an analysis of television graphic design using examples of
work that can point out the attributes and skills that a new designer across
the globe will need to have and obtain in order to withstand future industrial
and cultural changes.
