Graphic design or 3D design?

I’m currently doing graphics but I’m considering 3D design. I need help to decide. I’m planning on doing cgi or something similar to creative technology also something with a good salary lol. What do I do?
If you're good at graphic design AND you can use 3D software well, you can earn very good money. Freelance motion designers can earn many hundreds of pounds a day.

The majority of graphic design degrees won't teach 3D software, but it's easier than ever to learn.

You could also look at specialist motion design course, or a 3D animation course too. Assuming you're still at school/college, attend some Open Days and see the kind of work that the students on each course produce. Choose whatever field makes you most excited.
