Economy and Freelance rates
by PackageID in design employment
I have noticed that there is work being done for much lower prices on the freelance end. It seems more and more clients are being able to find people that will do work for extreme prices that under cut the seasoned designers…I know that we have to change with the times, but how far do we take it?
Ever seen a Christmas tree made out of meat, radioactive Christmas balls or festive superheroes with ‘needles of pain’? Hundreds of Christmas tree-like objects, sculptures, installations, graphics and videos were gathered at the sixth episode of the “Oh Tannenbaum!” Christmas tree exhibition between the 16th and 21st of December at the Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design. Core contributor Aart van Bezooyen traveled through Germany’s snow-white landscape to discover a colorful forest with tree-like objects, sculptures, installations, graphics, videos and a bit of Christmas magic. Enjoy and best wishes to all!
