How This Rate is Calculated

Okay, let’s tackle this. So Maika has a Bachelor’s degree in Media Arts and Animation, which is a solid foundation. She has also worked as a tutor in animation, which suggests she has strong teaching skills. However, her experience is mostly freelance, which can be variable. Looking at the skills she has, like 3D modeling, animation, and visual effects, these are in-demand skills, especially in the animation industry. However, the rate I’m estimating is on the lower side because Maika doesn’t have any high-level management or leadership experience. Also, the location is the Greater Chicago Area, which might not be as high-demand as other areas like New York or Los Angeles. Considering all this, I’m estimating her hourly rate to be around $75, which is on the lower side of the range for an animation professional with her skills and experience.
