Todays lesson:

  • Hourly rate of a Website designer (Average of around £50) - Student hourly rates will be very low. (£5/h)
  • Target Audience - Class, Race, Religion, Age, Minority, Sex/Sexuality
  • Deadlines
  • The term 'amature' defines itself as meaning work with no pay (i.e Student)
  • Budget

One thing that stood out today that I have learned is that if i get the oportunity to work on a project for a client then after my pitch the first thing to do is find out what the clients spesifications are for their product, next is to find the demographic and apply ideas to work with the set project. After the budget is setteled (Depending on my qualification or previous work efforts) i can haggle a hourly rate.
