I estimate how many hours a job will take, then I multiply that by the hourly rate I think I deserve and then add a little extra for buffer, because everything takes longer than you plan. The way I personally come up with my own prices are mainly by the specific job though. I'm guessing this might even be a lower end rate honestly. if I were to throw out an average hourly rate I would say 40.00 per hour about (in the U.S.). Snakeeaterjns: Most people will tell you its a case by case rate, and you really need to decide what is fair for you first, then make sure the client is willing to pay that amount. Or am I somehow misunderstanding these rates? By that math it seems really high even if you are new york city based or California based. So if you make $20.00 per hour then your salary is about 40,000 per year (assuming you work a standard 40 hours per week).Īre you saying that the average low end art studio 3d artist makes over 80k a year! If so I'm getting totally jacked right now. The general formula is 200 x your (hourly rate) = to your yearly salary. I'm in there a lot! And what a great overall resource, wow! With more experience, I've seen and worked with contract artists that can make that much in a month, but that's the 1%. You could make a comfortable living making 50 - 70k\yr modestly. To speak of roughly yearly numbers, depends on how much work you can get. Bids come from the time estimate multiplied by the day rate, rather than "I'll do it for this flat rate" which could get you into infinite revision trouble. Sometimes it goes higher, but domestically, contract artists typically charge around $300\day. The range of rates I see for individual contractors are $250 - 375\day overseas, and $275 - 500\day domestic. this is rare, usually it's boutique studios) High-end domestic art studio: $800\day ($100\hr. High-end overseas art studio: $300\day ($37.50\hr) Better-formatted info, reposted from a post I made in another thread awhile back: US pricing is pretty flat regardless of the quality so I tend to vet those guys more closely, whereas you normally get exactly what you pay for in India and China. US studios are $600\day on average, and specialty shops (like VFX for example) can go as high as $800\day. For US individual contractors I generally see $250 - 450\day, but the cream of the crop are usually $500 - 600\day. China's about the same, except their low-end can go as low as $90 and their high-end averages out around $225. In my experience, typical man-day rates in India from low-mid-high quality are generally $135 - $175 - $195.
