39% of Russian-speaking companies pay $10-15 per hour for outsourcing graphics
For what tasks and how much are paid to autosource companies and third-party employees specializing in creating graphics in the RU segment, SunStrike Studios told in its research.
The results of the study were obtained as a result of a survey of 43 representatives of domestic and CIS companies.
In most cases, according to the survey, outsourcing is resorted to to accelerate the development of art. 70% of respondents named this as the reason for its use. However, many noted that thereby they hope to reduce its cost.
At the same time, few are ready to give work on art for a full cycle. Only 14% of respondents answered that they trust third-party specialists so much. In most cases, “on the side” is given the creation of two-dimensional graphics.
The main problem most companies call the poor quality of work. 29% of respondents, as a rule, are dissatisfied with the work of outsourcers and believe that they often “do not know how to do beautifully.” The second most important problem is called low transparency of work. They say that many do not respond, do not keep up to date with the progress of work, even disappear.
As for payment, the average hour of work on graphics costs most respondents $10-15 per hour. At the same time, many – a quarter of the surveyed representatives of companies – pay even less – from $8 to $10 per hour.
SunStrike Studios, which conducted the survey, is not a research company. This is a small studio that was launched in the city of Ivanovo in 2016. She specializes in creating two-dimensional graphics for mobile projects and three-dimensional graphics for desktop and console projects.
