About this service

Summary

Starting on the right foot...

As with any other interaction, we will begin with a hello! I look forward to getting to know you and your concept, and hopefully will be the person able to help realize it.

Getting the ball rolling...

Through our initial discussion we will outline the scope of the project and set a timeline and a series of goals for the evolution of your design asset. This discussion will include an introduction, a whole host of questions, and hopefully an engaging and exciting conversation that will set us down the right path while addressing all of the necessary formalities.

Refining and iterating...

Our first meeting will include three proposed directions for your project. Depending on your project's scope, this will be the first multiple rounds of iteration while the project is developed. I will bring pointed questions to the table from which we can explore alternative design avenues or refine the ones already on the table.

I deeply value collaborative communication with clients, and find that my most successful projects have been borne from this dynamic. I am also up for 'flying solo' a bit more with a project if that is what you have in mind, following a clear discussion of your vision, goals, and references.

Sending you your finished asset!

Voilà! At [insert project timeline] last, your project will be finished. Through this process of revision and conversation, the end project likely won't be a complete surprise, but I hope it 'wows' you nonetheless.

It will be polished and ready for whatever use-case you may have set out for it or that we discussed at the beginning of our project. If it's something to be printed, it will be ready to send to the printers, if it is to be published online or elsewhere, it will be formatted accordingly and will be ready to go.

I knew from the moment he responded to the brief I knew he was a thoughtful designer. A pleasure to work with and I enjoyed the co-creation process. He was super flexible.

Sam is an artist and a master at his work. Since 2019, he has been the designer for Esferas, the journal I manage at NYU. He has full understanding of the medium with which we work (InDesign-photoshop) and always improves the quality of our product. We work with high end photographers and artists who are very concerned with the quality of their work on the page. Regardless of their aesthetic, they are always happy with Sam's work. As I am. Wouldn't work with anyone else.

I have always been drawn to working with Sam Cordell when deciding on a visual direction for a release cycle or album. Sam has a vast knowledge of how to not only capture exactly what a client has in mind, but also build on the idea in his own way. Sam’s acute knowledge of both analog and digital processes has always impressed me, and I can’t wait to work with him again in the future.
