mostly i do video work, but i have a contract coming in (probably) that will require a bunch of flash work.
what would be a reasonable price for a 30 second flash spot with sound? essentially a commercial for a business...
thx,

you doing all the art work?
than out putting in to flash?
or is this strict flash process only? (no art work, just animation together)

also, . you shouldn't be asking this question. it's called price fixing.

heh, yeah i'm not price fixing, promise...just trying to get an idea from you flash guys from an area i'm a little less experienced in :)
the clients will be upscalish businesses located in office buildings, the animations will be ads for their businesses played on in-building kiosks throughout the lobby.
i need to charge based on final product rather than hours - i.e. $500 for one complete :30 spot with audio plus $75 for each modification thereafter...or something
the clients will be providing some basic material (images, logos, etc.) but we will be handling all the art direction and design.
so...any more ideas out there? thx again!

Christ, why is there always a "this is price fixing" guy in every one of these threads?
This is NOT price fixing. Learn some law and fuck off.
Anyway, it sounds like you should work from a 150/hr (USD) rate and then know your hourage. Estimate from there.
One thing I've learned is NEVER underestimate the cake behind internal corporate advertising. And they seem to love Flash like nobodies business.

thanks for saying it visia :)
anyhow, yes, i imagine there's some good coin there, though i might have opened my big mouth with a too-low price already....not that i can't still tactfully up that, but i was sort of on the spot and couldn't rememeber what my flash guy was charging before...
so nobody can imagine a fair per-product price for an animation like that? cheers,
