At the core I am a graphic designer that is focused on the value of creating a strong brand image. An image that has a sense of purpose, that makes a positive impact. Brand images are helped formed and supported by visual elements such as a logo, brochure, photos, packaging, posters, signage or websites. My experience has taught me that ideas for these elements can come from anywhere, that the creative process can be winding, often magical, sometimes difficult and that a hard days work may take all night long. As I see it, with each project, the execution of a unique idea is an opportunity to introduce something new to the world. If you’re in need of a brand element such as an identity, creative packaging or a great website, you’ve found the right person. Whether your project is a one time need or multiple pieces to a total brand development, I will take on each effort with the goal of creating great, meaningful and effective results. That goal is what it’s all about, creating great work that meets or exceeds the expectations of the client. Every project is unique with it’s own objectives, target audience, positioning, user aspirations, etc. By process we’ll identify those needs and then use an attentive, collaborative path of development that is result oriented. --- Process: Fundamental to creating strong brand elements is to clearly understand those unique needs. To ensure a successful project result it is essential that your designer understands and acknowledges a clear understanding of the goal. Step 1: Discussion Background information, needs and goals are pertinent to the development of the great creative. I will listen and then fully discuss what I understand about your input and goals. From there we’ll establish a plan, which will include objectives, budget parameters, a timeline and deliverables. Step 2: Discovery Following our initial discussions I will appropriately research the relevant market in an effort to put our needs and goals into context. It will help set a path for the design process. Step 3: Concepting I prefer to present clients with more than one “rough” concept. When applicable, developing multiple ideas is great way to discover a precise creative direction to develop. Upon seeing rough concepts, clients may realize that there are other possibilities never dreamt of. Or and at a minimum a rough concept should be a confirmation of understanding and approvable as an appropriate direction. Step 4: Design After feedback and input from the concept step, this is where we formalize our discoveries. It can be refining a specific rough concept or two, “versioning” out a direction to gain a more in-depth visual picture, focus groups can come into play or in some case finalizing and going straight to a deliverable. No two projects are the same, anything is possible. Step 5: Layouts If applicable this is where refine and shape specific elements of a project. That could be anything from laying out versions of a poster with different languages, edits to specific body copy on package label, trying different colors in a background or different hero images, etc. We’ll stay on this step until it’s perfect. Step 6: Finalize Upon reaching perfect and at times after final edits we’ll lock down the design(s). With final approvals in hand, appropriate final artwork will be produced and delivered to either yourself or a vendor of choice. Deliverables: This can be a logo and it’s file versions, a set of vector icons or a website taken live. Project completed. The deliverables can be printed pieces the client has produced after I supply final art and possible input on how to handle. Or I can be enlisted to handle final production, which I am more than happy to do to ensure a positive result.
