The Process

step ONE

DISCOVERY

In this first phase I will get

an understanding of what

your needs are and provide

a rough quote of the time

required to complete your

project. There is no charge

for a quote.

step TWO

DESIGN

Next, I’ll create preliminary comps based on our ideas.

Here we fine tune the art

to meet your needs and

desires.

step THREE

PRODUCTION

In this phase the final ideas

will be presented to you.

Here we will fine tune everything including color, photos, fonts etc. Once you sign off on the final comps

we move to the next phase.

step FOUR

FINAL/MECHANICALS

Final printable files, also known as Mechanical Files,
are created and sent to you and/or your printer.

*At every stage of the process you are kept up to date on

how much time has accrued.

Policies

For Projects 1-15 Hours

A 15% deposit is required

upon presentation of the

first design comps.This is based on the estimated total hours to complete your project. The balance is due when final

files are provided.

For Projects Over 15 Hours

A 15% deposit is required
to start your project. This is based on the minimum estimated hours to complete your project. A payment schedule agreement will be created, usually this is a $500 payment for every 20 hours of time. The final balance due when final files are completed and delivered to you and/or your printer.

Sales Tax

California State sales tax will be charged on all projects where the client receives a hard copy (DVD or CD) of the final files. Tax is applicable in this case on time related to final Mechanical file preparation and Disc costs.
