FAQs

When assessing illustrator portfolios, focus on their style and its alignment with your project vision. Ensure they have experience in the specific type of illustration needed for your project, such as digital illustration, children's book art, or editorial work. Additionally, look for diversity in their work to gauge their ability to adapt to different themes and concepts.
To define project deliverables effectively, start by outlining the scope of work, including the number and type of illustrations required. Specify formats, sizes, and any necessary color schemes. Set clear deadlines for drafts, revisions, and final submissions. Providing a detailed creative brief can further ensure alignment on project goals and expectations.
For a smooth project kickoff, initiate a kickoff meeting to discuss project details and ensure mutual understanding. During the meeting, go over the agreed-upon timeline, communication preferences, and any specific tools or platforms you’ll be using to share feedback. Establishing a consistent communication channel, like weekly check-ins or progress updates, can help keep the project on track.
