How Much Does Animation Cost? →
“I have had people ask me for an entire 22 minute television show and want to pay me $100 to make it. No I’m not kidding. That would take me a year to do by the way. I have had people want me to draw 300 panels of art for their children’s book for $300. That’s a dollar a drawing. I have had people want me to produce a full color 22 minute storyboard for less than $250 bucks.”
“you illustrators like to draw so much, you don’t need a fair payment since you do it for fun right?”
ONe thing once I get out of school and on my own that I will do is be an asshole about payment and prices. This is my living, motherfucker, I expect some money from it.

This :| This is why I don’t do animation on commission, because no one would PAY what it needs. It’s insane :/

DUDE. A 30 second animation took me two weeks and it’s not even smooth :[ Course I had other class projects but still.

I’m not an artist, but I really admire them, and the animation process in particular. I can’t believe people actually...

people who aren’t artists don’t realize how time consuming art is.
