The standard work process consists of two parts:
- Creating the sketch
- Creating the design
You can see the entire process in the picture below.
1. Sketch
I will prepare a sketch for you representing the future design. You can request any modification to it and I’ll update the sketch – this process is called a revision. Please gather all your modifications in a single request. I provide only one revision for the sketch, but if you want more, you can order an additional revision (see my price list).
2. Design
The design will be based on the approved sketch. When it is ready, I’ll show the version to you, and you can request modifications in it twice – do two revisions. Extra revisions are paid. In the end, you should select one of the design variants. I’ll send you an archive with your files after you send the last part of the price. If you like several variants of the design, we can additionally purchase them.
How to Start
To start you can contact me directly or fill out the order form.
To start the process, we should do several things:
- You should describe to me your ideas, the better you describe them, the better the result. Here are several things that are really important for the order:
- The main idea and the application.
- Desired style and colors.
- Design references – images that represent your ideas
- Required file formats (if you don’t know, we can decide on this based on the application)
- I make an invoice for the prepayment and sent it to you
- The work starts from the moment the prepayment is done.
Prices
All prices are based on the agreed base order cost. If you need more revisions to polish the sketch or the design, you can buy them from me. If you like several versions of the design after several design revisions you can buy all of them for half of the price each.
- Make an additional revision (sketch or design): 25%
- Buy additional design version: 50%
Definitions
- Revision – the client can request any changes in the provided design or sketch version. Each round of request-modification-demonstration is called a revision.
- The design should be based on the approved sketch.
- I provide 1 revision of the sketch and 2 revisions of the design per standard order. Any extra revisions should be paid additionally.
- Sketch – a rough graphical work with the design composition and main elements of the future design. It usually does not include colorization and small details.
- Design – final graphical work that will be delivered in the form of graphic files based on an agreement with the customer.
- Pattern – is repeated decorative design. Each pattern consists of a set of repeating elements on a background.
- Pattern design – a set of particularly colorized elements arranged in a particular composition or a particular background. The same set of elements of various colors arranged in various compositions represents unique designs.
- Pattern element – a separate repeating shape on the background e.g., character, object, geometrical shape, etc.
- Pattern background – continues repeating image behind a set of pattern elements
