Hi, I work in Human Resources. If you are reading this comment and you are one of the people who submitted your salaries for this video, for the love of Christ you need to FIND A BETTER PAYING JOB. If the animation studio you work for has an HR department they are absolutely exploiting you and your labor. ALWAYS ASK FOR A HIGHER WAGE THAN WHAT YOU REALLY WANT IN THE INTERVIEW PROCESS. Let the interviewer negotiate downwards to your desired salary range. It is the year 2023, in the United States any salary from $15/hr --> $19/hr IS NOT A LIVABLE WAGE. If possible always try and push for unionization in your Animation studios. There are very few downsides to unions, if you don’t Unionize you risk being automated and losing your job in the next decade with A.I. and Machine Learning advancement in the animation field. --sincerely, a random HR person

Wowwww, this is super informative! I'm a 19 year old art student trying to earn my BFA in Digital Art and Animation. The pay rates in these videos are the around the same amount I had when working a full time entry level job not needed of a degree. This really opened my eyes about how important animation unions are. It would be cool to see you dive into talking about animation unions in depth in future videos! Also I want to say thank you for posting your videos in general. I remember I started watching your art career videos when I was in 9th grade and admiring your story of how you came to be in the animation industry. Your story and guidance in these videos helped me step my foot forward into making my mark into the animation industry. So thank you! :)

Girl this makes me depressed. I'm outside of US with 3 y of storyboar expirience and here 1k per month considers good price

@mewTripled Год назад

I'm really sorry to hear that, I really hope you're able to land in a better position soon :(

@marcelamoro6040 Год назад

Last year I earned 19k as motion designer and this is considered a lot here in Brazil 🫠 i'm trying to become a story artist and yep, 1k is a good price

@ymotle Год назад

Latino jobs, here In Argentina 1k its a lot

@didi7074 Год назад

Same! What country are you from? I'm from Portugal where most people make minimum wage, 760 euros per month

@wfox7280 Год назад

1k is such a good salary in Russia... Oh. Sometimes I really feel so badly that my country is a f*cking outsider. I am so sorry to see this hopeless, because my country itself has chosen this course.

Best/worse paying jobs in Europe would be very helpful!

@itsBobtart Год назад

I've worked in the VFX industry (very similar to animation) for 12yrs for studios in both LA and Vancouver and I can confirm that starting positions can pay very low. My first gig right out of university in LA paid me $500 a week and after factoring in OT I was essentially making less than $12 hourly. I also had to commute an hour each way for that job. That to say, it can be very difficult to get your foot in the door in this industry. Sometimes artists need to take low pay, work unpaid OT, or do undesirable work just to get some professional experience. The best way to increase your income fast is to hop around to different studios and make connections. Connections can lead to better gigs and each new gig ask for more money. I'd also like to add that VFX doesn't have a union like animation does so that can attribute to why it's a bit harder to get started in a VFX career.

@andieskywalker Год назад

jusr curious, but how are u doing nowadays? in terms of jobs with a good pay in the VFX industry

@itsBobtart Год назад

@@andieskywalker at this point in my career I make a pretty comfortable salary to support living in downtown Vancouver. I’m in the ballpark of some of the salaries in her last video. But in my personal experience it did take me about 10yrs to get to that point. Once you reach a senior artist level it’s much easier to find work and get the money you ask for.

@andieskywalker Год назад

@@itsBobtart im glad to hear that! hope u keep on growing and living a successful and comfortable life as an artist :) would u say this whole journey was worth it? im a student rn and im honestly scared hahaha

@itsBobtart Год назад

@@andieskywalker It was absolutely worth it! Sure, it was a rough start, but I believe that I had to go through it all to get to where I am now. There were many experiences and lessons learned along the way. Despite the long hours and undesirable conditions at times I still find this career extremely fulfilling. I’m creating movie magic with so many talented and creative people and I’ve built some of my strongest friendships along the way. And I’ve been able to travel to a new country for my work. That makes it all worth it. It’s okay to be scared. I forget who said it but there’s a quote something along the lines of “if it excites you and it scares you at the same time, it’s probably worth doing”. So go for it and I wish you the best of luck on your journey!

@Jowyerv Год назад

I always think the pay USA would be decent, but boy how wrong was I... I'm a 2D background artist who work in a local studio for 5 years (Malaysia) , and I got pay (in conversion) US$500 per month. which is lower than any local fast food workers. 😅

@DONTTOUCHTHEGRASSIMALLERGIC Год назад

I don’t even think that’s legal

@IreensBeans Год назад

This is actually crazy because my veryyyy first job out of college was a junior concept artist at this LA tech startup and I got 80k a year with 0 experience!!! (Ofc they were a tech startup and not an animation studio. And sadly I got laid off at the 10 month mark, but they had a veryyy nice severance package. So, still. LOL) The fact that so many people working in animation and VFX are being paid this low is ridiculous. I'm glad I started off my art career with a reasonable, liveable income because I don't think I'll accept being low balled like that fr.

@noistune5707 7 месяцев назад

Why were u fired?

@cetriyasArtnComicsChannel Год назад

sounds like these people are getting paid less than working retail... I work in appreal and its maddening to me that in LA they're asking people to work there for around 50k. how can you live on that? and why such low wage for a specialized skill? Also, those states keep lying that 'cost of living is low" um 1 br in FL is abour 13-1600 a month and thats not including Miami. also, you're not getting paid enough to save for retirement which is tax deductable. And no, you can't afford a 400k mortgate on 40k salary (not to mention student loans)

@diemes5463 Год назад

$20 an hour in SF is brutal

@PalomaMcClain Год назад

Thank you so much for this information!! I work as a graphic designer full-time. In the evenings I've been working with an indie studio (team of 4) helping paint and design assets for a 2D game coming soon. I'm hoping this experience helps me move forward in the game industry. I know this video is about animation but it still helps put things in perspective!

@sobeso Год назад

Thanks for this video really does add to the perspective from the last one, I really wanted to see how location affects pay in fields that seem like they could be remote and this video really helped

@kisari-arts Год назад

I would love if you did another one of these with how animation jobs are in Europe, Asia, and Oceania! It would be really helpful for me since I want to work abroad on a work holiday visa after I graduate with a degree in animation!

@BlackHayateTheThird Год назад

Comparing wages between different countries of major animation hubs: Canada, US, Europe (Ireland and France in particular), Japan, India and the Philippines- would be really interesting.

Portland is NOT CHEAP. At least not anymore. That stop motion rate is appalling. 😭🙏🏾

@tiratao Год назад

have you made videos about getting into the industry without connections? I've moved to the states over a year ago, and applied to 10 different places per day for a few positions (primarily storyboard) for a whole year and never once heard back from any studio.. I considered internships as well but all I found were for grad or under grad, while I was recently graduated before moving here, my degree was from a foreign country and I'm afraid that limited my chances while the window (6 months after graduation) was limited

@amakaobioma777 Год назад

I think you should go there regardless and drop your portfolio

@impulsivejun Год назад

this was really eye opening, especially since I'll be graduating soon and this is a topic that's been on my mind for awhile. Do you have a suggestion or a resource that would be good to look at, for what salary to ask for, as someone who is just starting out and has no years of experience? I am currently studying Concept Art and am considering becoming a character designer for the animation industry.

@mokilatte Год назад

Please inwould love to see the Europe version of this video, im currently finishing my degree and i don’t know wether to stay here or if it would be worth it to move to the usa (though i don’t know how i would get a job if i do) but it would be really useful to see

@SpinningPomPom Год назад

i'm an Art student taking BA in Animation here in the Philippines and our pay when it comes to local studios based off of my connections who work in the animation industry locally are being underpaid which 9k to 15k PHP Isn't a livable wage. But I think Internationally companies do pay more with a starting salary of 30k PHP for a character designer (livable in PH but not livable in US)

@aroseart78 Год назад

Can you talk about self publishing comics?

@eri_rei Год назад

Hello. Thank you for this two video! ❤ It’s very helpful I would like to know on which platforms in the US and Canada it is possible to find a job with 1 year experience in 3D animation?)

@aqualust5016 9 месяцев назад

When artists state their years of experience do they have professional time accrued with a company or providing services to back it up, or is it just a number they are posting along with their portfolio? I always wonder if someone has been working in blender for 2 years, make one or two decent projects, and then say they have 2 years of experience.

@Boxheadboo Год назад

Wow seeing this, make me realize that I'm getting severly underpaid;;; I do plan on getting a better job(Not a lot more paying but still more), but this realization makes me kinda depressed

@arkanimation9833 Год назад

Is this up to date? I heard Floyd county in the past year unionized. That made me hopeful to try to reach out to them but ugh. Also I agree 21 an hour def beats 18 an hour and less for those other places, bc it’s not like Hawaii super cheap anyway.

@arkanimation9833 Год назад

Also Floyd county does shows like Archer and Marvels Hit Monkey.

@arkanimation9833 Год назад

So I’m almost 40yrs old I won’t be earning a living wage if they paying under 21 an hour. 😮

@mewTripled Год назад

Oh ok, that's good to know. I think a lot of these were submitted in 2022 so if it happened between then and now, it's possible!

@VeeEaton Год назад

The employees ATTEMPTED to unionize, but the studio management hired a union busting firm with some really shady tactics and threats, and then quietly fired everyone that had vocally been pro-union. Last I heard none of the unionization attempts in Atlanta have succeeded yet.

@arkanimation9833 Год назад

I’ve never heard of anyone looking to be paid poorly? Lol

@fuzzydragons Год назад

a lot of non livable wages that people are almost forced to take to get experience😑

@PinkSmiiley Год назад

pls best paying in europe ✨✨✨

@@VeeEaton I hope she can get a new job soon:( she’s so talented she was about to get a job at Netflix but they fell through. I’m hoping she’ll come out on top :,)
