diegorojas Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Hello Friends of CG Architec, I'm Diego Rojas, from Osorno, Chile. I tell them that I recently requested a quote for a building of 8 floors, with approximately 2500m2, (the work required are: 10 CGI Full HD 1920x1080p (2 indoor and 8 outdoor), plus the 3D model. The truth that has taken me some time appoint a value to this work. That's why I want to know, if anyone can help me or guide! On the way to charge for my work, the truth is that I have experience working with virtual reality, but I'm a bit new to the process of collecting. I'll be extremely grateful.

notamondayfan Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Price = (Expect time * hourly rate) + expenses + contingency Simple, right?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unrinoceronte Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 The eternal question... Time will tell you, research your competition IN YOUR COUNTRY, have a ver detailed control of the Hours you put into all your projects, and also detail those hours regarding the different activities you doin the process of making those images. That way in a near future you will have a clearer idea of how much time to expect for most kind of jobs. From there you can define your hourly rate, and definetely foloow DEAN PUNCHARD's advice. That's the formula. In the bigger picture, you will have to take into account your cost of hardware, bills, insurance, medical, etc... I an sorry and i know this is not the kind of answer you where expecting, but If you need a quick advice on the price for this current Job that you are asking, since is on CHILE and i believe not many people here have a notion of the costs over there, i would say just make a few calls or emails to your competition and pretend you are a client...Or be honest and tell them to give you a hand with some overall pricing...

RyderSK Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 research your competition IN YOUR COUNTRY, Unless you feel really uncomfortable in english ( and if that's the case, why don't improve that first ? ), there is no reason not to go international nowadays. It's cool to stick with domestic market if you're from some top countries in world (Germany, Scandinavian countries, etc.. *just naming my favourites, put your own vision of world here* ) but if not, you're severely limiting yourself. And even domestic, why not charge "internationally" for "international quality" ;- ) ? (I am tired, so I am not bothered how stupidly that sounds, bottom line is, get rid of the "your country as limiting factor" mindset) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unrinoceronte Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I agree with you Juraj, that is a good advice in the sense of which path would one want to follow professionally. Go international, in both quality and value(cost) i definetely agree... Nevertheless my interpretation of what the OP asks is of something more case specific, an actual job that he could get right now, and i might wrongly assume or not, but i think if he has not much experience establishing price for his work (as he mentioned) he might not be quite there yet (internationally) with the experience/quality of his renderings... So my advice was more focused on this kind of urgent short term situation, and perhaps also reallistic since probably if an arch vis professional as him has not that much experience, i do not imagine that client choosing an international price, which i bet is far more expensive than the average prices in Chile. Do not get me wrong i wish all over the world we could manage the same prices, and compete more with quality and not so much as per price, but there are many reasons why things are not like that, specially in countries where a professional (say an architect) is payed $1000-$1500 per month...

Reitveld Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Interesting thread. I would also add that it depends on the quality level the client is looking for. Did they have show you some examples of renderings they liked/expected? I would say a bid would be between 5K ~ 15K depending on finish and quality.... BUT... you said they want also the computer model. The model I would contract separately and require full payment of the renderings before it can be sold. Strip it down without any licensed content before they get it (and let them know they don't get all the licensed people, trees, etc.). Really a model could be sold for the same amount as all those renderings put together... just depends on how much post work you do to your renderings.

diegorojas Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 Is interesting each of the views discussed on the basis of my request, thank you all for your comments on this topic. In trying to give the international value! my work automatically fall outside the local market (although it could choose to have values, local and international) but as he had said before, I do not have experience in the market to take on this value yet. However, I think my work is of a good standard, a lot to improve yet, but something to corde to what is offered today. but it is a difficult issue, when conjugated lack of working experience with the skill or ability in architectural visualization services that I know I can deliver. according to what I found out, a picture of Full HD 1920x1080p here in Chile, has a value that fluctuates between $ 100 thousand to $ 500 thousand Chilean pesos, something like $ 200.00 to $ 1,000.00 dollars, depending on the level of detail required for the modeling. About the project: this raised with modeling environment (trees, cars, people, some streets, signage, etc ...) and the project should have a level of detail that distinguish certain reality in 3D Image (lighting, textures high Definition, furniture etc ...). I find it interesting to set the final value of our work based on hours of work involved in each project, this makes sense and a lot of logic...... this gives me a lot to think about when to sell the work, I find it hard to make a conclusion.
