SALARY STANDARDS?
2 messages in this thread
I am an employee at a PC and MAC CDROM title development company in
San Francisco. I am wondering what salaries, benefits, royalties,
profit sharing and bonuses are industry-standard for these content
developers:
Programmers
Senior Programmers
3D Modeler/animators (3DStudio/
Senior 3D Modeler/animators
Art Directors
Project Leaders
Storyboard Artists
Producers
Artists/3D mappers
Digital Video Techs
I have been with the company for 4 years. We produce CDROM titles
acclaimed for their high production values. We work an average of 50
hrs per week. There is no salary standard applied at our company at
present, causing a lot of confusion. Is there a national standards
commitee for CDROM developers?

I also would like to hear any replies to your question. In my case, I am
considering a job offer in Canada at a CD-ROM creation and system-integration
company as a 2D animator. As a senior tecnical writer I make $30/hr (on
contract), and I have heard that $50/hr (this is a contract job) is the
ballpark (CAN newsletter) for computer animation. Yet this company has started
off by mentioning a rate of $17/hr. I don't know what to make of it. (By the
way, cost of living here is probably about 50% higher than down there.) I look
forward to replies to this issue in general.
