What style of illustration am I looking for?
First, decide on the style you need for your project. Illustrators have different styles, like cartoon, realistic, or abstract. Get examples of what you want, so the illustrator understands your vision.
How can I define the project scope?
Think about what you want the illustrator to create. Be clear on the number of illustrations and what each will show. This helps the illustrator know exactly what to do and plan their time.
What timeline should I set for the project?
Decide when you need the illustrations completed. Ask how long it typically takes for similar projects. Setting a realistic deadline helps the illustrator deliver quality work without rushing.
How do I communicate my ideas to the illustrator?
Share sketches, notes, or reference images to explain your vision. The clearer you are, the better the illustrator understands. Open communication helps avoid misunderstandings and creates great results.
What deliverables should I ask from the illustrator?
Decide what final files you need, like high-resolution images or editable files. Think about where you'll use the illustrations, like in print or online. Knowing the deliverables helps the illustrator give you exactly what you need.
How do I ensure the illustrator aligns with my brand?
Check if the illustrator's past work matches your brand's look and feel. Look at their portfolio to see if their style fits your needs. It’s important they understand your brand’s values and message.
What is the best way to review and approve drafts?
Set up a system to review the illustrator’s drafts. Give feedback at each stage and be clear about changes. This process ensures the final work meets your expectations.
How should I handle potential changes or revisions?
Agree on a process for revisions and how many rounds are included. Clear guidelines help avoid confusion later. This ensures a smooth workflow and helps manage both your expectations and the illustrator's workload.
What files should I receive at project completion?
Ensure you get all the necessary files, like source and final versions. Know what formats you need for different uses, such as web or print. This ensures you have everything needed to use the illustrations effectively.
How do I verify the illustrator’s previous work quality?
Review their portfolio and ask for testimonials from past clients. Look for consistency in quality and style. This helps you feel confident in the illustrator's ability to meet your project needs.
