Graphic Recording Rates
It’s important for Graphic Recorders and clients alike to know the right investment to make in any Graphic Recording project.
Standard rates
Standard day rates for seasoned professional Graphic Recorders in Australia range from around $2,000 – $4,000 (+GST).
Some Graphic Recorders choose to offer a short day or half day rate, but not all.
Different factors that affect the overall price
Depending on how each individual works, practitioners may choose to split their rate into a day rate and post-production rate. They may also offer additional outputs or offerings as part of their services.
Some Graphic Recorders will charge an additional rate for interstate work.
Travel time has to be factored in too; it’s common for Graphic Recorders to include a half-day for travel, or a whole travel day which may be ¼ – ½ of the existing day rate.
Similarly, if a client requests an earlier than average arrival for briefing, set-up, or rehearsal, or multiple significant meetings and guidance in the lead up to the event, the Graphic Recorder may charge an additional fee.
Fees for virtual Graphic Recording
Virtual Graphic Recording (or online Graphic Recording, as opposed to digital in-person Graphic Recording) is incredibly valuable as an engagement and communication tool. Like many industries during the COVID-19 crisis, Graphic Recorders worldwide have pivoted to continue our services online.
Graphic Recorders continue to seamlessly deliver our skilled services, with our usual level of excellence. We will go to great lengths to support clients to navigate the different online environments.
In every industry, people are still working from home and getting paid the same rate they were paid ‘in the office’. If they are offering the same outputs, delivery, skills and products, the same rates apply. By this logic, Graphic Recorders’ prices for virtual graphic recording work remain the same.
