Can depend on the type of work you’re doing and experience level. High side for commercials 1500 but down to maybe 600?

If you’re senior w/ a good reel than you shouldn’t have trouble getting $1000. What are rates like in SF?

Jr editor 800/8hr day in SF. Figured couldn’t beat that so haven’t been reaching out to places in NYC yet without knowing what the scope was. Thanks for the info though was a huge mystery on my end

Some Business Intelligence/Analyst roles are very data heavy. I wonder why these roles do not have the term “data” in them, and wonder if it’s to keep the salary lower than it should be.

For those of you that are freelancers - do you run into this issue constantly of people asking for holds without telling you what the project is? I don’t even know how to approach this because if I respond back to ask for details and THEN say ‘it’s a 2nd hold’ it’s pretty obvious I’m not interested enough to give a 1st hold. But I’m also never going to give anyone a 1st without details - don’t producers understand this when reaching out? I really don’t get it.
