Does anybody know what the freelance rates are for a flash presentation project? Mostly animation, little actionscripting, 2 minutes long....
Is $50/hr too little or too much nowadays? Thanks in advance....Sorry for the second post...screwed up the topic line in the first post...

I charge 75/hour, for production time and 40-50 for project management time. Everybody works differently though, so this is a hard question to ask.

you could have just bumped your other thread.
knowone cares about the topic line. i never read them. in fact. i'm blind.
anywho. depending on your experience and how big of a pain in the ass you think the project will be, also, keeping in mind your client, can they afford it?!? then yes. $50 an hour is ok. i would suggest though ballparking the # of hours to them so you don't come back with a thousand and they shit thier pants. make sure they're cool with say, "should take anywhere from 30-50 hours, no more" so you pad yourself.
you have to ask yourself how much final amount wise you want to make. 200? 500? 2500? go from there.
cheers.

Great advice. Thanks! I will pad a bit and see what they think. Then come down to my original cost I was calculating.....

Hourly rates are relative as far as I'm concerned. It all depends on the intensity of the project, the budget, deadline, etc. Also your level of skill/experience...
I would say 50/hr is okay but more entry level commission for a flash presentation. 75/hr is reasonable but 100-150/hr if you have solid experience and your skill level is high.
