>Animator gets 9400 dollars annual
>Seiyuu gets everything
What the hell?
Generally, animators are more replaceable than top tier seiyuu.
>>120776691
There are a lot more animators than seiyuus.
>>120776691
Animators do one or at least a small number of projects at a time, while seiyuu does a lot of things per season and they're treated like celebrities.
>>120776691
I'm happy with my current job as an I.T. supervisor with an annual salary of US$170,000 and I still have plenty of time to shitpost on /a/ while at work.
>>120776691
This is like being surprised the hollywood superstar gets paid more than the key grip or gaffer.
Big names can sell a series! Directors, producers or studios might sell a series too!
But invidiual no-name animators? No one watches a show just for that. They're interchangeable and disposable.
Plus, that's only for "a-list" voice actors. For every one there's like a dozen random schlubs paid peanuts and working another job to pay the bills.
Nana thread?
>>120776798
Nana thread. Post more Nana because Nana wills it.
As long as animators are the worst paid and considered the least important, animation will remain a trash medium that deserves no respect or recognition.
>>120776691
There are only a handful of seiyuu who get that kind of money. If you only do voice acting, you won't live comfortably in Tokyo.
>>120776691
Outsourcing and globalization to third world countries.
>>120776691
Seiyuu lead a hard life.
Look at Zuka
Failed all your audition, get harassed for sexual favor just to land a role only to end up in the ero business and JAV once you get discarded by the anime industry.
>>120776841
That pic is depressing.
>>120776691
>>120776779
What are "a-list animators" called, if there's such a thing?
ITT: unemployed people.
>>120776777
you should buy moot a washing machine
A-list seiyuu. So like what, 2 dozen people in the entire goddamn industry of thousands?
But that lowest number always bothered me. Is she working part time? Or as a trainee or something? If she was an in-betweener or something, sure, but she's working on key frames, right? This can't be right.
>>120776889
Leading animator? Guy who does keyframes for important scenes?
>>120776942
Probably outsourcing to koreans and that's what they pay them.
>>120776889
I guess we just call them famous animators. People like Yuasa, Shinkai (?) or Umetsu.
A-list seiyuu is basically a celebrity
>>120776942
Ema is a freshie
They get paid like shit, more so when you are an animators where degree doesnt mean shit and you are judged on your drawing ability.
>>120776691
Yeah, just like how actors get paid fat stacks while the production crew get doritos and mountain dew.
>>120776826
Western animation productions pay their animators better. That industry seems to be doing better in terms of respect and recognition, right?
This is why you should buy anime
>>120776841
What is it? All I get is a page with comments likeKill Me www
>>120776691
>What the hell?
Supply and demand. You get what you can get.
>>120776889
Chief Animator? Director?
>>120776980
I wonder how come western animators have all the dosh just to make the simplest thing from flash? It seems like their ads throw money into cartoons just for the heck of it, and they can even hire celebrities to voice their cartoons.
>>120776966
Yeah, but paid minimum wage?(assuming this is income after taxes otherwise it's even lower than minimum wage) As an in-house animator for an actual animation production company working on key frames?
>>120776982
Only good anime, though.
My autism always goes mad when I see that chart and realize that CG animator (which I would like to have no at all in my chinese cartoons) makes more than traditional animator. Hope it's bullshit.
>>120777036
It could be that the ad market (even just for the US alone) is really really big, and even then that's not it's only source of revenue.
Animators get paid shit because they like what they do. If one quits, there will be another just waiting for the chance to take his job.
>>120777091
But they can use computers, anon. You need skill and talent for that.
>>120777091
They get paid extra because of the third dimension.
>>120777091
Skilled labor pays more.
>>120776939
I didn't get that, it's not like he'd even have anywhere to put it.
>>120777091
>(which I would like to have no at all in my chinese cartoons)
No one gives a fuck what you like, it works well when it's done well.
>>120777158
Show us an example then.
>>120776691
I make as much as an executive producer in japan? I seriously feel like I'm poor though, like I have hard times and don't live richly, at all. Is that graph right?
You need to be making 100k in the US to have any kind of decent life.
>>120776980
How much better though?
And how many western animation studios are there? There's not that many cartoons on tv nowadays. It's easy enough for Disney or Nick to film some shitty kids sitcom.
>>120777169
I don't have gifs and webms of that stuff saved.
Look at the example in Shirobako.
>>120776691
"A-list" voice actors are different from your normal voice actors aka the type of people you might come across on every show.
"A-list" VAs are people like Nana Mizuki and Yukari Tamura who are idols, Ono D. and Mamoru Miyano who are actors, Keiji Fujiwara and Takehito Koyasu who are company managers, and last but not least, Sugita and Nakamura who host their own show.
>>120776980
It's a great time to be an animator in the west.
>decent pay
>incredibly low standards for television series means almost no effort on your part
>movies now employ more CGI artists and animators than they do camera crews
>work is heavily divided and departmentalized to increase efficiency so you end up spending all your time animating some guy's right eyebrow or something and still pull salary
>>120777170
>You need to be making 100k in the US to have any kind of decent life.
Maybe if you have a wife and kids you're providing for.
>>120777292
Also depends where you live. Cost of living can vary dramatically.
>>120777272
Its a great time to be in the west
Every other economy is munching dicks right now. Wonder how long it will last...
>>120777170
Sounds like you're living beyond your means.
>>120777302
this
100k in the bay area or new york is like 60k everywhere else.
>>120777322
If I made 60k a year starting right now I would be able to retire by age 35. Some people just overspend on stupid shit.
>>120777272
>movies now employ more CGI artists and animators than they do camera crews
Anon... Hollywood outsourced CGI to India. All the medium/small studios closed, it's the very few big studio backed ones still employing americans.
>>120776691
>A-list
They're big names who will win sales by virtue of just having their name appear in the credits. Of course they'll be paid a lot to get their name there.
>>120776691
Why is this a line graph? Do you know anything about charts?
>>120777337
retiring for a neet is about the cheapest thing you can do. especially since you pirate everything anyways.
Most people need to support kids and shit.
>>120777017
The question displayed in the picture is "Can you live by only doing voice acting work?"
>>120777170
I'm in the freaking military and make more than all but one person on that chart.
>>120777396
That's frickin sad. What else do they do? Baito? Phone sex?
>>120777383
Pretty much. I live off of 25k/y right now without much issue. If I made more money it would just increase the rate at which I build my retirement nest egg.
>>120777432
They probably take a bunch of part time jobs at once so they can support themselves until they hit it big as a voice actor.
Of course, most of them never reach that point, so they just end up older and with no respectable work history.
It's kind of like idols, either you hit it big or you're left with nothing, having wasted the best years of your life chasing an empty dream.
>>120777467
>you're left with nothing, having wasted the best years of your life chasing an empty dream
Pride's a bitch on both sides of the escalator.
>>120777488
I don't get it
So how cheap is japan...? These salaries really low.
Like if I take a trip there, would shit seem really cheap or not
>>120777432
The ones with good agents also work in music. Aside from that, they have to get a regular job.
>>120777502
It's incredibly expensive, especially Tokyo. Animation just doesn't pay well for most people. It's not exactly a "respectable" profession in Japan.
>>120777502
Well, if your native currency is the euro, dollar or pound, then yes, everything is going to feel incredibly cheap.
While eating isn't terribly expensive, Japanese housing prices are beyond the roof (heh), and an average day of public travel (bus, subway, etc) will cost you as much as you'd spend in a week anywhere else.
>>120777501
You have to chase the dream because you can't live with yourself if you don't, and then you have to deal with being a failure.
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to de-lint my fedora.
>>120777503
Does Japan have phonesex?
>>120777571
>Does Japan have phonesex?
Yes.
>>120777502
The US military pays a Cost of Living Allowance to personnel stationed in Japan. In the Tokyo area, I get $600 ~ $800 in COLA with the shitty yen rate right now. The lowest off-base housing allowance rate here caps out at 155,000 yen/month. On Kyushu it was much lower.
>>120777606
How many military bases are there in Japan anyway? Were you ever stationed in Sasebo, by any chance?
>>120777632
I don't know for certain, but I can think of 7 not including Okinawa or those military housing areas that serve other bases. There are no bases on Shikoku or Hokkaido, as far as I know, and Sasebo is the only base on Kyushu.
>>120777677
Sorry, 8 bases, I forgot NAF Atsugi.
>gaijins complaining Japan is expensive
Every time.
>>120777170
Really? If I you had 100k in dollarydoos (80k US), you'd be able to live very comfortably, and Australia's very expensive too
>>120776691
Holy shit, this is like, 2 math phds worth of income.
>>120776691
That's how the world works now anon. The hardest jobs are paid nothing, people who do nothing get millions. I've seen this everywhere I worked. Even in this economy, you should create your own business if you have an idea because you can't move up the corporate ladder if you have no connections or if you're not a woman willing to spread her legs, and most jobs are outsourced.
>>120779459
You're talking about the animator right?
Why does it matter that animators are more replaceable? Aren't they still humans that should have a salary proportional to their hard word?
>>120779866
D-don't bully my major, pls.
>>120780034
Good animators get promoted to be episode director, series director, chief animator and some even go on to be a studio founder..
If you cant draw well and has no talent, you will always be the lowest of the low like Ema.
>>120780034
>salary proportional to their hard word
That's not how it works, silly.
>>120780054
It'd be more accurate to swap those pictures around if that makes you feel better anon
>>120780034
Because people don't give a fuck about that and if you complain about it then you can just be replaced with someone who doesn't.
>>120780089
But since the animation industry still needs the lowest of low they should be treated more like humans.
>>120780034
It's smart work, not hard, that pays the most. Would you like the lowest tier construction workers to be paid more than for example the architect who designed the building they make?
>>120780126
Ema isn't treated like human?
She gets long lunch break, has freedom at her work place, can dance during work hour, learn from her senpai and has less stress than Aoi.
She is freshie, it is just like medical student doing their internship. They wont get paid well.
>>120780141
No that would be pretty conflicting, all I'm saying is that first world countries that have tried evening out salaries in the workforce have generally gotten more out of it in terms of social stability.
>>120780108
>tfw pure math
B-but I'll get a million dollars for solving a millennium prize!
Why don't people grasp the concept that the chart isn't an indicator of the profit distribution of an anime?
"A-list seiyuu" describes someone who is basically an idol in every respect. They have a producer and spend all of their non-seiyuu time on TV, doing live shows, events, etc.
>>120776691
That chart could also be profits from drug deals.
>>120780223
>muh $15 dollas
I think the image is kind of misleading because voice actors have multiple sources of income too. They get paid for their voice acting work, of course, and they probably also make money if they opt in to do promotional appearances or stuff like radio programs, then there's the fact that they can appear on multiple projects in relatively short span of time compared to anyone else in that graphic who can maybe do 2-3 things at once MAYBE, and then depending on how successful they are, there's stuff like music sales, photo books, personal (non-character) merchandise, etc, etc...
A successful seiyuu is a money-making brand unto themself
>>120780228
Should have done a double degree with some professional degree, that's what some of my mates did
>>120780223
Social stability is not an endgame for the company that hires the animators. Unless the government steps in, they're not going to change it, and even if it does, it may only lead to complete outsourcing of the animations to Korea.
Anime does not generate a lot of revenue. It's mostly used as an advertisement for the original work, or makes profit from selling merchandise. If you wanted to double or triple the salaries for animators, this money would have to come from somewhere. Look once more at the chart - the Executive Producer, who is responsible for everything in the show, does not get paid 10x the amount of a single animator. The A-list voice actress? You could count them using only your fingers in the whole country, the rest gets crap like everyone.
My point is, there's no mystical 1% you could take the money for animators from. Anime simply does not make enough money to make it possible for the wages to be increased by a significant amount.
I'm curious what a B or C list seiyuu makes. Like someone who shows up in a few anime each season but doesn't make it as an idol.
>>120780034
>Aren't they still humans that should have a salary proportional to their hard word?
They're paid according to the scarcity of people able to do their job. Big name actors get paid a ton because they're good at it, their presence can help boost sales, and more to the point, they can leave if they decide they're not getting paid enough.
Customers will easily notice a change in actor, which can potentially hurt sales (especially if it's an important role), but an animator leaving will typically be impossible to spot, on account of animation being done by groups rather than individuals.
tl;dr version: supply and demand, animators get paid less because their product is less differentiated than that of actorss
I wonder how much HanaKana is worth now. I hear she buys extremely expensive clothes that don't even look good for shits and giggles.
>>120780416
I'm curious how many A-List seiyuu there are.
There's... Miyano... and...?

How can Ema fucking survive with that yearly income?
I made 7k/month and I think I am underpaid myself.
It is fucking tokyo, the rental is already around 80k yen/month for a 1LDK if she is living in Tokyo. It boggles my mind. She basically can double her income if she works as a beer girl like zuka with less working hours. Work passion?
Can someone post the anime documentary where the dude said he became an animator because he likes drawing cute girls?
>>120780215
She gets a long lunch break so she can ride back home to eat her cheap ramen because she can't even afford to buy lunch outside with that slave salary.
>>120780703
>80k yen/month for a 1LDK
I don't think she's eactly living in Shinjuku. You can get 1LDK for 30k in outer Tokyo.
>>120780738
I am sure she stays around Nerima which is where Musani is based at right?
>>120780582
Quite a bit, that I even throw money to sekai project at steam instead usually pirate it.
It's hard to throw my money around because I didn't have CC, and I am not a honest taxpayer to get one.
being seiyuu is harder
especially a famous one
especially female
you need to be always perfect/in your role.
one mistake is the end for career and reputation.
not to mention dealing with people you dont like.
not to mention no serious relationship (or any at all) until the end of career which will probably be after 25.
and even if you managed to avoid any scandal. rumors will still exist. good luck finding a decent husband with that backstory.
>>120780738
Didn't she go to work on bike with a 30' commute? She might be quite in the outskirts, as Musani doesn't look like a centric place.
>>120780582
62k, I wish I was in uni
>>120776691

Yukari Tamura is an old hag
Yui Horie is well into her 40s going to 50s I think.
I know being seiyuu is harder but I can't understand how even Midori is far better paid than Ema, she works half time and her job isn't that hard or better deserving than key animator.

Could someone kindly explain to me what the difference between "animators" and "CG animators" is?

Do people really want to spend their time being stuck in mediocrity without having a sense of self fulfillment and personal advantage in exchange for decent pay?
Or would you rather still suffer for your art financially and physically/mentally in order to get that satisfying product and wholesome feeling?I ask because right now I'm in the latter.
I'm glad I don't live in Japan just in general.
>>120783423
If im planning to kill myself before turning 30 why bother building up a career.
>>120783200
No, they don't. Actually Japan has pretty limited student aid. But tuition is pretty cheap compared to the US and most students get part time jobs.
Given the $9400/yr salary in the pic and Japan's minimum wage, the animators must work only around 25 hours per week. A college student could easily work that much, and it's not hard to find jobs that pay more than minimum wage, especially if you're willing to work nights and weekends.

Applied math uses the knowledge to solve real world problems.
One is for useful plebs and the other for useless patricians.

Australia here. I get around ~$9,200/year from the government for being in uni. This money does not have to be paid back, but uni fees do.
>>120783535
Dude you are full of bullshit. We get some money. Im studying here at college and I get 8 200 dollars a year as Jasso money
>>120783586
But where do the money to reward people who solved fictional problem came from?
>>120780582
35k in an area where $1k a month is worth a four bedroom house's total rent.
Teaching is suffering though.
>>120783911
From government funding. They need people to represent their country in international forums/convention where mathematicians convene to solve fictional problems in order to make their country look intelligent in the academic front.
Ema is suffering.

No, you're just an idiot. I didn't say Japan has no student aid, I said it has very limited student aid.
Also, JASSO student aid is only free if you're a foreign student. Japanese students have to repay all of the money, either with interest (第一種奨å¦é‡‘) or without (第二種奨å¦é‡‘), and the no-interest loans are either need or merit based.
>>120784312
Mixed up my numbers. 第二 is with interest, 第一 is without.

I'm pretty sure I've read some article about poor animators working 12 hours a day, doing the hardest job out there. All this shit doesn't come together.
>>120776824
>>120784363
That may be true, but in that case if they're paid hourly they're being paid less than minimum wage.
Probably they're being paid at a per-frame contract rate or something like that.
That seiyuu pay is for your Yukarin's, HanaKana's and Miyuki Sawashiro's
Regular seiyuu don't get paid that much
>>120784490
Even before that Shirobako ep aired, I kept wondering how it must feel your rookie seiyuu sitting around in waiting room, practicing their lines, only to see a seiyuu idol enter the room with her entourage and realize that they've got no chance at all.

Why does anybody want to work in the anime industry to begin with.
>>120784718
There are people that want to do things that they enjoy. Crazy, I know.
>>120784751
Only a minority of people employed in the anime business get to do something they enjoy: Most are faceless grunts getting neither recognition nor adequate pay.

Recognition and pay != enjoyment, you fucking retarded millennium.
>>120780034
They do get a salary proportional to their hard work. Their problem is that their hard work is just that cheap to find.
That's literally all it's worth.

I refuse to believe Kanemoto actually found enjoyment in participating in that sham.
She was just going along with what the higher ups planned, right?

Anyone have a similar chart for western pay rates?

Google it. There was some fairly heavy bullying going on among the cast, mostly aimed at some rookie kid. Reading up on it is mostly useful to see Sugita lay down the law during an event.

Basically two of the VA in the show bullied a new seiyuu on live on stage.
Someone their bullying antic got leaked. A huge scandal happened and apparently the producer of said event was rumored to be the sugar daddy for kitaeri.

this, prices (including human labor) are based mostly on supply and demand. There are so many animators that they get paid garbage, we will never run out of them.

I'm the latter, but in the context of programming.
In CS, almost all of the people you meet are in the former group. I guess the same is true pretty much wherever else you look.
Passion is hard to find.
>>120785585
Although there's a sufficient supply of grunts, there's a very painful lack of capable creative staff in higher positions. Most people who have the talent don't want to subject themselves to the initial grind so they seek employment at game companies or other places. Which is leaving the business with an army of mediocre animators and only few people who can actually add real quality to a show.
>>120785755
>people that don't agree that babies, like myself, should be fed are shitposting
I bet you also call negative opinions of shows shitposting.
mfw 3d animators and riggers especially the latter are on high demand everywhere
>>120785169
/a/ gets their panties in a twist over this, but totally ok with 4chan harassing a mentally challenged man for 8 years straight.
yeah that's totally not hypocritical.
>>120786007
It's almost like /a/ and 4chan are not a monolithic entity but a collective of people of all walks of life with all kinds of attitudes and ideas. Cherrypicking much.
>>120786057
find me someone on /a/ legitimately as sympathetic to cwc as Ichiki

I personally think cwc is funnier when left to his own devices.
>>120786123
How am I supposed to do that?
An animator's work is very tedious and, in a way, unimportant. You just copy shit over and over. Makes sense that the Chief Animator makes a significantly more, though. They're the people who are really essential.
>>120786197
you can't

Shitty parenting or not, it's harder to sympathize with an autist who believes he can do no wrong than it is with someone who was told that they got their big break only to end up fucked over in a PR stunt and publicly humiliated. The CWC harassment was taken too far, but Ichiki wasn't exactly vandalizing store displays, pepper spraying employees trying to stop him, and running the manager over in a car.

If you actually enjoy drawing you won't find it tedious.
