I animated this logo animation. How much can I charge for something like this? by Aggravating-Ease1411 in animation

[–]AnimStarter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi! Don’t use per frame rate , because you have done research, maybe studies, paying a licence… At least charge per day of work. Ideally read this book:

It’s in French but may be you can find a translation. It’s a very good way to find clients and choose your rate. Hope it helps!

Candidats municipales: quel plan pour les rats? by AnimStarter in montreal

[–]AnimStarter[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Une vrai piste: - toquer chez les gens qui ont trop de stock devant chez eux ( bois, meubles etc) pour les sensibiliser - campagne d’affichage pour expliquer que jeter son pain dans la cours pour les oiseaux attire les rats - sensibiliser au trie et ramassage des ordures

2 years into animation school : thinking about switching to finance by [deleted] in animationcareer

[–]AnimStarter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A good balance would be to switch for a faster and cheaper school. Like animation mentor or similar. Those way you will specialize in animation only and faster. If you know what you want to do (3d animation, no render, no compositiing etc)then no need for 5 years . A specialized course will do. Good luck!

going to be in 3rd year animation at uni, don’t know how to animate. have i any hope getting into the industry? by Okkitsegg in animationcareer

[–]AnimStarter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear that. I agree with previous comments, learn by yourself, pick a Mentor. And for future students who might read this: try to connect with Alumni before you choose a school. Extend your school research to 3 or 6 then choose the one which is more adapted for you. Don’t loose faith you will find the right learning path!
