Looking For A Paid Animator For iPhone Game!

FallingBoxStudios

Hi, My name is Hunter, I'm the creator of a gaming company for iOS and Android called "Falling Box Studios"
The game is going to be an endless runner, its going to be called "Pet Loose!" the story is you're a pet and your owner wants to take you to the vet, so you have to run away from him by dodging obstacles and enemies
We are looking for a cheap animator to create all animations for the game, you and/or your company will get full credit for all animations in the games credits, the price we are looking for is about $5 - $15 for all animations you create.
The game is expected to be released by 8/2/14
For more info on this project please contact me at FallingBoxStudios@Gmail.com
Thanks, - Hunter Afia

Cool, I get to make 5$ - 15$ for a year's work. I wish my current project could make me that much money. )

Now now guys, let's not be too mean

@FallingBoxStudios You can probably tell from the responses to your post that $5 - $15 is completely unrealistic for a job like this. Most game artists would want at minimum hundreds of dollars to create a whole game's worth of art.

It's also worth pointing out to you to be careful using phrases like "creator of a gaming company". From the unrealistic valuation of art work you've posted I'd hazard a guess, correct me if I'm wrong, that you're not really a legally recognised company, and that you may be quite young of age. I'm only mentioning this because there's alot of legal issues around entering in to contracts when you're under age, and even more if you're misrepresenting yourself as a company when you're really not. Apologies if I'm wrong on both counts, I'm just taking an educated guess from what you've posted.

The only reason I'm mentioning all this is to give you some hopefully useful advice, and to offer you an explanation for all the shocked emoticon replies you've been getting all day. Good luck.

Are we completely sure that he meant 5-15$ for all combined and not individually? A bit hard to tell, with the wording. Maybe some clarification, @FallingBoxStudios?

@GraphicWarehouse @Clock @RP @Braydon_SFX @GSanimator @jamie_c @SnapFireStudios I meant for each animation, sorry...

FallingBoxStudios

@GSanimator.com I meant for each animation, sorry...

FallingBoxStudios

@SnapFireStudios @BoomshackBarry sorry I meant that price for each animation not all.

BoomshackBarry

No worries, it sounded like that was the price for all of the artwork combined. I hope you find somebody to help you out, good luck.

I would go 15$ per frame if that was the case.

elance, odesk etc. Thats your best bet but beware, lots of crap artists/animators on there. Its a massive skill in itself learning how to outsource. Really check their previous work and references. Good ones get tied up quickly

turboCharge

yeah I think you can get cheap artist at odesk,freelance.com . I remember my boss complain their quality and lackness of requirement and he keeps spending more for revisions. Doing that will just balance cost with a professional artist with high rate.

@BoomshackBarry Thanks.

@turboCharge Thanks.
