The Business of Animation

charager rigger needed (unpaid)

By fatmoshe | Thursday, July 15, 2010 at 8:16am

I am looking for someone to do a rig for me. I do animation as a hobby now that I am out of the industry. I do animated shorts where I place smurfs in modern films. click below to see my work on youtube:

http://www.youtube.com/user/fatmoshe

I am prepping my next short (Inglorious Basterds) and have remodelled my smurfs and snorks. I hate rigging (especially the blend shape part). I prefer simple rigs for the body and I really like the "stop staring" rig for the face... but I'm not picky.

In the interest of kicking "back-end" and deferral in the NUTS...

[I]I'll work 10 hours a day for $350.

Andreas does the photoshop posters for Paramount, gets $700 per day at 7 hours plus an hour off for lunch.

You do the math as to which is a better deal.[/I]

In Australia, it is unlikely that we will ever be able to extirpate the tapeworms attempting to rort the talent via "deferral" deals.

However, deferral deals only rort the talent because the contracts allow the shitbags -- oops, sorry, I mean the so-called "writer-directors", ha ha - to write themselves in as a "cost" calculated into the gross expenditures of a project before any net is calculated, often making the "cost" for their services high enough to eat up all monies before BG painters, s'boarders, VO talent, prop-designers etc. get paid.

Need Post-Sound Work for your animation?

I graduated from SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design) with a major in Sound Engineering and a minor in Animation ;).

I enjoy doing animation/movies/film post sound more then anything and am willing to work (freelance.) over the net from where-ever you may be. I promise you to do my very best with a professional attitude and good spirit :). Some examples of my work are on the website listed below.

Animation Advisors

If u are an administrator please unlock me :(

Hi, I´m slowly creating my studio, I hope in 1 or 2 years it is working, I´m from Costa Rica, Central America, make sure there isn´t a fly on the map or you won´t see the little country.

Ok, the matter is that I spect to get clients from the big countrys, and I would like my Studio to be a first world studio, so if I want to do that i´ll have to know how the First World studios works.

So I thought I could get some advisors, people who can teachme how to make a real animation studio.

It´s there such a thing, Animation Advisors?
