My freelance gigs tend to be as a subcontractor building out Film marketing websites and games. It generally involves a significant amount of interactivity either in Flash or HTML5/JS/CSS3, and since I know that Film marketing budgets are usually relatively robust, I feel no qualms starting my bids at about $8000 for 3 weeks worth of part-time work (nights and weekends). Usually the projects are more like 6 weeks, so I often charge around $12-14k, and my clients rarely counter. Additionally, this is usually 80%-90% coding. The firm that hires me is usually responsible for all the design comps and photoshop files.
