    The Animation and VFX UK rate card survey is finally here! https://bit.ly/AVU24 Our industry has experienced significant changes in recent years, and our 2022 rate card no longer accurately represents the current landscape. It needs a much-needed update and you can help us! The rate card ensures that all workers in similar roles receive fair compensation, it helps avoid wage disparities and can be used as a guide for salary negotiations. The survey takes only 2 minutes to complete and it's completely anonymous. The greater the number of responses we get, the more beneficial it will be for everyone. Click the link above!
