FAQs

How can I define my project's requirements before hiring a digital illustrator?

First, think about what you need. Do you want a cartoon or a realistic drawing? Write down the style, colors, and image details. This helps the illustrator know what you want.

What should I include in a job description for a digital illustrator?

Be clear and simple. Say what kind of project it is, like a comic or a book cover. Mention if you have a deadline or any special styles you like. The more details, the better!

How can I evaluate a digital illustrator's portfolio on Contra?

Look for work that fits your style. Check if they use colors well and make nice designs. See if their past projects are similar to what you want. This helps you pick the right illustrator.

What should I discuss in a creative brief with a freelancer?

Talk about ideas and plans. Share the main goals, like how you want the picture to make people feel. Mention any important elements that must be in the art. This keeps everyone on the same page.

How can I set realistic timelines for a digital illustration project?

Think about how complex the project is. Simple pictures take less time than detailed ones. Talk with the illustrator about how long they need to finish. Always add a little extra time just in case.

Be clear on rights and usage of the artwork. Talk about what happens if changes are needed. Make sure it includes when and how files are shared. This makes everything fair and clear.
