The process of completing a project from start to finish can be completed in seven steps: • Initial Project Review • Project Research • Subcontractor Coordination (optional) • Project Design • Client Review • Refinement Rounds • Final Production   STEP 1: Initial Project Review The designer will meet with the client to discuss the overview of the project, including the cost estimate and timeline. STEP 2: Project Research The designer will research different aspects of the project, such as photography, illustration, printing prices, color palette, etc. STEP 3: Subcontractor Coordination If needed, the designer will interview, price and coordinate the subcontractor(s) for the project. STEP 4: Project Design The designer will design the project based on the specifications and research that has been collected. STEP 5: Client Review Once the design is complete, the designer will e-mail the project to the client for review via a PDF file. A color printout can be provided upon request. STEP 6: Refinement Rounds The client will give the designer any revisions that need to be made. Typically this step takes multiple attempts to finalize minute details of the project. STEP 7: Final Production Once the project is approved, the designer will send the final job to its final destination, whether it be to a printer or to be coded and placed on a website server.
