Here goes an example of my last job (its an album cover for a band) i hope you like it! :D i think i earned $100 for it
Oh that's lovey~
That's a lot of money for one thing, but I guess its for commercial use that's a bit different.
During my said "commission" period I got to do somethings I really loved, I ended up getting to do a portrait of my favourite character, and was offered five times what I was asking (even though it wasn't real money) other things weren't so fun. But, pricing them on its own, can be difficult.

It really isn't.

Would you flip burgers for 50 cents an hour? No. A dollar? No. Two? No. Three? No. Four? If you're currently eating cat shit. Five? Six? Seven? Eight?

Just be honest with yourself and work out how long something will take and how much your time is worth, if you think your work isn't worth the money you'd have to charge because of the time it would take then work on becoming faster.

To answer your question though no I don't do comissions, never really tried to solicite any.

Response to: Adding Sound Fx to an Animation. Posted May 21st, 2013 in Animation

I personally cut all my audio first in Adobe audition and then animate to that.

No idea how or why you would try to do sound after the animation.

Want more stars? Quit trolling.

Response to: Actor(s) needed for quick animation Posted May 20th, 2013 in Collaboration

Actors are no longer required as the script has been recorded and cut, thanks all those who showed interest. :)

Also could a mod edit out my script since I can't, or just delete the thread?

Actor(s) needed for quick animation Posted May 20th, 2013 in Collaboration

I don't think I technically qualify to post here but I want to make this animation and I don't want to dick around so I'm just gonna go ahead and post and if someone wants to let it slide great, if not it was worth a try.

I want to get this done and under judgement by Sunday so to that end I'm just going to post the entire script, if you like it and want to record it (and can record it, shouldn't need to specify that but people are weird) just let me know asap. Ideally I'd like a single actor to do both parts because it would just be easier to coordinate but if you're an actor who has a good working relationship with another actor and can sort it out between you that to would be good.

Minor details like titles and stuff we'll sort out later and if it goes well we can make more.

So, the script:

- Two guys sitting on a couch, one reading a magazine -

Dude One: Hm âEU¦ (looks over to Dude Two)

Dude Two deliberately ignores Dude One

Dude One: Hmmmm.... (quickly looks back down at magazine and back to Dude Two)

- Dude Two frowns -

Dude One: Mhmmmmmmhmmmmmm hmmmmm mmmmmmmm hmmmmmm!

Dude Two: (sighs) what?

Dude One: How much do you know about time travel?

Dude Two: (underbreath his breath) god damn it.

- Brief Intro -

Dude Two: It doesn't even matter, you can't travel through time!

Dude One: Yeah but assuming you could...

Dude Two: Assuming you could it wouldn't matter anyway because you have that grandfather paradox thing, if you could effect change in the present from the past then your changes could prevent you from travelling back in time to prevent those changes in the first place. You can't just pop back to 1899 and push Hitler down a well.

Dude One: You're just assuming you can't you don't know that for a fact!

Dude Two: True.

Dude One: So then don't you have a moral obligation to try?

Dude Two: I guess you would.

Dude One: Interesting.

Dude Two: What? You wouldn't?

Dude One: Think about it, he must have had a mother and father who probably loved him.

Dude Two: He's responsible for killing millions of people! Fuck him and fuck them.

Dude One: They were probably part of a community...

Dude Two: Yeah, you know who else had communities in Austria? The Jews.

Dude One: So you see no ethical problems with just killing some kid?

Dude Two: Killing Hitler? No.

Dude One: But you're killing Hitler before he becomes Hitler.

Dude Two: So the world will never know Hitler? Sorry all my tears are currently booked for the new Star Wars movies, I'll see if I can get you some for 2018.

Dude One: So you just wouldn't give a shit about that whole situation?

Dude Two: No.

Dude One: What about what others might think of you for that?

Dude Two: Think of me?

Dude One: Well, yeah.

Dude Two: So you think I'm stupid enough to kill a kid and then hang around to tell people that in the future he'd be the worst person to have ever existed and âEUoeDon't worry because I'm totally not some crazy person who just killed a kid for no apparent reason!âEU or start screaming about how he was evil? The only thing that would be harder to find than that kid would be me.

Dude One: Yeah that's what I thought...

(pause)

Dude Two: Okay what the fuck, why are we even talking about this?

Dude One: I âEU¦ no.

Dude Two: Obviously you have something on your mind so spill it already!

Dude One: Okay, two words.

(slight pause)

Dude One: Madeline McCann.

(another pause)

Dude Two: Jesus, you're such an asshole!

Dude One: I'm not the one that would have killed her, dick.

Response to: critique needed Posted October 23rd, 2012 in Art

Hard to really say anything as there wasn't any actual shading done here, all you've done is abuse the dodge and burn tools and not to great effect. Think about it for a second, you have a bright bright light shining directly behind the characters. So where is that light beaming off the shields coming from? Where is all the light at the front of the character coming from?

Cell shading is meant to be clean and simple, if you're relying on the dodge and burn brush to do your work for you with a feathered edge you've fucked up before you even begin.

I would love to give you more substantial advice but I honestly think the biggest improvement would come from you taking your time and thinking about what you're doing.

Response to: Putting Together a team... Posted September 7th, 2012 in Collaboration

If I can be of use let me know, I want to get involved with making games but I have absolutely no knowledge of programming and what little programming I've done I've found to be tedious, stressful and boring.

I'm an artist and aspiring animator.

I can work with pretty much anything in an art capacity in varying levels of proficiency 3d and 2d.

I have/an use:

Photoshop
Flash
After Effects
Maya
3DSM
Softimage
Zbrush
Mudbox
3D Coat
Mari

From here the list just gets more specialised into areas of 3d and VFX so I'll cut it off there, check out my page, very little is my "best" work as I've been at uni for the last two years where you spend a week animating and 3 months spell checking essays but it should give you some idea about my range and style.
