About Mike Bell
I am a 3D events, experiential and exhibition designer and visualiser, currently working on various live communication projects. I supply my clients with a range of design and visual solutions - from simple stills to full rendered fly-throughs of spaces.
In these times of multi-way pitches and tougher budget expectations I support my clients with a range of design and project development tools - from simple layouts through to complex fly-though renders, and animations. The days of long design time and processing for 3D imagery are a thing of the past.
The first question is usually 'What's your rate?': I work on an hourly rate from £30/hr for pitch work from my studio. Slightly higher rates apply for live/ongoing projects.
The second question is 'How long does it take?' - that is subject to what you want - but some designs/visuals have been produced in three hours - other projects (admittedly huge international assignments) have taken three weeks.
