The job is to create a large number of rather simple vector shapes/illustrations, tracing from handdrawn or photocopied images with the paths tool in Illustrator.

We can come to a mutual agreement on payment and time scales (as this has a relatively loose timeframe so you could do it in your leisure time, ie a number of shapes done by a certain time.)


I've always worked for newspapers so I have no idea what I should charge for this type of job on the side.

Any ideas??? Do I charge per hour or per shape created? And how much??

Many thanks
