Could somebody please tell me how much a 3-D animater gets piad. Ofcourse it would change from company company but I mean relativly. How about other positions? Thank you, Geek

Anyone have the distinct feeling this should be bumped over to the Business forum??

I just graduated from college with a certificate in 3D animation, and the impression we were given is that it depends on the sort of "rank" you have. For example, the core bottom of the chain artists usually start somewhere in the low to mid-range five figure area. Supervising artists, lead artists, and positions such as that are said to make considerably more; potentially in the six-figure zone.

As I say this, keep in mind I have not yet been in the market yet so I honestly couldn''t verify any of it, but it is what I''ve been told.

Let the games begin.

What I have been told is right on with Gaiiden.

Begining Artist: $35-70,000
Senior Artist: $71-120,000

Kinda depends on what you do exactly... Just modeling the figures? Or animating them too? If you do both, you''d get a bunch load of money. (at least from what I''ve heard...)

Um, I think the kudos goes to RDSFan, I''m the one who got this in the right forum so GeekBoy over here (oops, I mean just Geek ) could get the answers he wanted. Carry on.
