For Artists Freelancing in the 3D and Motion Design Industry

For over 13 years Jesus Suarez has been working in the Motion Design and 3D industry, both in house as a fulltime employee and also remotely collaborating with studios and clients around the world.

Some of the most noticeable studios he’s worked with are: Territory Studio, Perception, Imaginary Forces and The Mill, to name just a few.

In this keynote style video presentation Jesus will pour all of the knowledge he has gathered throughout the years and will show you his findings and recommendations/best practices that he believes can make you become a better artist, team player and ultimately help you get booked more often.

 

Topics covered:

  • Cold Outreach
    One of the ways used to obtain clients/win projects.
  • Availability checks and Scheduling
    How way to let studios/clients know when you are available, plus tips on how to organize your calendar.
  • Holds
    An industry standard practice that most people have never heard of but that every studio uses. Learn what a Hold is and the proper way of using them.
  • Rates and NET Terms
    By far one of the most important things to know, how to come up with your rate, what type of rate to use and how to deal with payment terms with clients and studios.
  • Contracts and Terms and Conditions
    Jesus will show you how he structures his contracts and the correct way to lay out a professional contract with the important clauses to keep you and your client safe.
  • Invoicing
    How Jesus creates and manage his invoices, services he has used and recommend and important information you should include in every invoice.
  • Working with Studios vs working directly with Clients
    Experience when working with studios or direct to client and will point out the pros and cons and things to keep in mind when doing each engagement.
  • Organization
    How he organizes his emails and calendar.
  • Q&A
    Jesus responds to a few frequently asked questions he gets on Social Media.

“Jesus has put together a great resource, highly recommend!”
-John Fischer

Jesus believes this type of information should be taught in schools or on online learning sites but it isn’t, so he made it himself in the hopes that he can help other artists out there (new and seasoned) operate in a more professional and efficient way.

There is a lot of useful information in this presentation. We really hope you enjoy the content and that it helps you in your career!

“This is a gold mine for anyone with questions
about how freelance motion designers operate”
