For Starters
So, you like our stuff and you want to hire us for a project? That’s awesome. We really appreciate the opportunity to work with such a fine individual as yourself! When writing us an email, please take a minute to answer the following questions. This will really speed up the process.
The Logistics
1. What is your name, what do you do?
2. Why are you contacting us today?
3. Can you tell us a little more about the project?: a) Is this a design and print job? b) Just a design job? c) Just a reproduction print job? d) Just need art?
4. What is your deadline? (This very important. Press time gets booked up fast, so we need to reserve time for your project well in advance.)
5. If this is a print job, please tell us the amount of printed matter you need.
6. How many colors are you anticipating for your project?
7. Will you be providing films for printing?
8. Will you be providing paper?
9. Will you be delivering print-ready files (including trapping, seperations)?
10. We ask for a 50% down payment and full payment on completion, what do you say?
11. How do you want your project delivered?
The Art Process
After you’ve answered these questions and we’ve agreed on the terms and conditions of the job, we can start talking about our process. Typically, if you have gravitated to our work, it’s because of our visual language. Our imagery is developed in a unique environment in collaboration with inspiring, like-minded clients. If you’d like, you can point out some of our previous work to help give us an idea on what you are envisioning for your project. Depending on what you like, the approval process will vary. We specialize in an improvised fine-art/design approach. That means nailing down an atmosphere and creating a visual space for the idea to push through. We pride ourselves in our individual clientele that come back again and again and reassure us of our path (our thanks goes out to them)! Be honest and fair with us in your expectation! If you are asking us to produce imagery that is outside of what you see on our website, then it’s probably a bad idea to ask us to do it. Take time to brief yourself on our style. We strongly believe the amount of research you put into your project for hiring someone for your vision will reflect in the final solution you are seeking. That means, hire someone who you believe can do the job and then also trust your decision. If you think we are the right fit for you, then come on over and lets get this going!
