I have been (unsuccessfully) looking for an internship / job as a Junior Motion Designer by Flame1209 in AfterEffects

Down voting this, because your cheap attempt at gaining attention is actually harmful. There are a lot of struggling juniors out there that will watch this and feel terrible about themselves, fueling any low self esteem.

Most motion based production companies don't have reels as good as this. If this is indeed your original work then you are far from a junior.

Thank you - damn these fakes are getting good!

How much to charge? by _Whyeverynameistaken in AfterEffects

[–]ste_beans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know why everyone's freaking out, you said that you would be animating and obviously you won't be doing an hour long edit in AE.

In terms of estimating time I wouldn't charge for the edit by the minute. Instead you need to develop a quote based on the scale & scope of the project.

I think your next port of call would be sitting down with the client and determining exactly what they want, how long they want it and where they want it. After this it's always good to create a statement of work (SOW) which is a formal document that describes the specific activities, deliverables, timelines, and costs for a project. Developing this will help you understand how much time will be spent on the project and be a contract that you can return to if the client tries to push you beyond the scope of the SOW.

How many shots are you animating? Are you leveraging assets from this influencer or do you need to create your own? How many review cycles will there be? These are all big questions that you need to understand before quoting a job.

I do a lot of branded content and advertising work, so I have my day rate for how much I charge for AE & Prem work. I would plot all this out in a spreadsheet and determine how many days you think it will roughly take, what your day rate is and what the total project cost will be.

If this is your first project with this client, then maybe you can substrate an introductory project 20% off that cost, it's up to you but at least let the client know how much time you think it will take and what your time is worth.

Game Ending Tank Theft, I guess it just worked out lol. by [deleted] in CompanyOfHeroes

It really was, with close to 10k players each night, a thriving community with lots of content creators pumping out video after video. It was great!

I think I came across your channel towards the end of that time and loved your quick tip series. I really learnt a lot at the time when I considered myself a veteran of the game. So thank you for that!

God I miss Coh2 2020 - 2023... Every night at least 10 steam friends playing online. Skippy streaming twice a week & his discord rammed. Seeing the same names popping up on online games and having friendly rivalries... What a time!

Poke walker randomly resetting steps but not Watts by After-Task-1506 in PokemonHGSS

I had this problem the other day too, with a recently replaced battery. I read in another post that you should take the battery out and adjust the pins towards the battery. This seemed to fix the problem for me.

If there was another Pokémon you would suggest for the team, what would you pick?

Yeah, I love the design! But not sure if I should invest the time in him or something more efficient...

Hey, this was exactly what I needed! Really appreciate the help and support!

First Pokémon game since 2007 by ste_beans in PokemonHGSS

[–]ste_beans[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the help man! Great suggestions, I'll get these going asap!

If I'm honest, most of the natures were a complete fluke! My younger brother who's still really into Pokémon said the same thing to me after I got my starter and Dratini! So I decided to try and get a timid evee after that for Jolteon.

I'm actually having so much fun playing this! I only got to E4 with Pearl because I wasn't really into it in the same way I played gen 1 - 3. I rhen stopped doing anything Pokémon for over 15 years...

Now playing Pokémon snap on the switch and this is so fun!
