What is the best way to describe my project to a communication designer?
Start by writing down what the project is about and what you want it to look like. Include any colors, fonts, or styles you like. Be clear about what you need to make sure the designer knows your vision.
How should I outline the deliverables for my communication design project?
Make a list of everything you need from the designer. Include things like logos, brochures, or website graphics. Be specific about dimensions, formats, and the number of versions you expect.
What information about my brand should I share with the designer?
Give them a copy of your brand guidelines, if you have one. Share your company’s mission, values, and any existing design materials. This will help the designer create something that fits with your brand.
How can I ensure the designer understands my creative vision?
Use examples or reference images to show the style you like. Talk about colors, shapes, and overall mood you’re going for. Allow the designer to ask questions to clarify your vision.
What is the best way to communicate feedback on designs?
Give clear and specific feedback for each part of the design. Use simple words, and point out what you like and what you’d like to change. Be encouraging so the designer feels good about making adjustments.
How do I agree on a timeline for deliverables with a communication designer?
Agree on a date when you need the final designs. Then, work backward to set smaller deadlines for drafts and revisions. Keep some extra time for unexpected changes.
How can I make sure the project starts smoothly?
Set up a call or meeting to go over the project details. Make sure both you and the designer have the same understanding of the goals. Send over any materials or information the designer needs to get started.
What file formats should I request for final design deliverables?
Ask for formats that work for both digital and print, like JPEG, PNG, and PDF. You might also need the source file, like a PSD or AI file. This will help if you need to make future updates to the design.
