Ways to work
Start at the right scale.
One asset, one campaign, a full identity, or ongoing support. The names are fixed. The scope, timing, deliverables, and price are written for each project.
-
One asset
Starter Design Pass
A focused asset for a show, release, campaign, deck, or brand moment.
Who it is for
An artist, promoter, venue, or team that needs one piece done properly: a concert poster, a flyer, a cover, a banner, a single deck, or one brand moment.
Typical projects
- Concert poster or event flyer
- Tour-date graphic
- Single or release cover
- One banner or web graphic
- One presentation piece
What the studio needs
- What the piece has to accomplish and who it is for
- Deadline and where it will run
- Required dimensions or the placement it is for
- Supplied assets: photography, logos, sponsor marks, copy
- Reference points and anything to avoid
How scope is confirmed
Scope is confirmed in writing before design starts: the piece, the placement, the dimensions, the deadline, the revision process, and the price.
How delivery is defined
Delivery is the final file or files named, sized, and exported for the agreed placement.
Limits
- One direction, one piece. A second format or a campaign adaptation moves the project into a Campaign Asset Kit.
- Printing, photography, and copywriting are not included.
-
One campaign
Campaign Asset Kit
One visual direction carried across the real formats needed for a launch, announcement, or campaign.
Who it is for
A release, a tour announcement, an event campaign, or a brand push that has to look related everywhere it lands.
Typical projects
- Master artwork plus feed, story, and banner adaptations
- Tour announcement across poster, social, and ticketing placements
- Release cover with campaign graphics and advertising creative
What the studio needs
- The master direction or the brief for one
- The actual list of placements and their specifications
- Launch or on-sale dates
- Supplied assets and brand rules
- Who approves the master before adaptation
How scope is confirmed
The master direction is approved first. The placements written into the scope are then adapted from it, each composed for its frame, with hierarchy kept consistent across the set.
How delivery is defined
Delivery is an organized set of final files named by placement and dimension, exported for their actual use.
Limits
- Only the placements written into the scope are included. Every possible format is not automatic.
- Media buying, scheduling, and posting are not included.
-
Full identity
Full Brand System
A complete and usable visual identity for a project, company, artist, venue, or brand that needs consistency.
Who it is for
A brand that is being defined or refined and needs to look like one thing across every surface it touches.
Typical projects
- Logo and brand marks
- Typography direction and color system
- Visual rules and usage guidance
- Supporting graphic elements
What the studio needs
- What the brand is, who it speaks to, and where it appears
- Existing marks, names, and materials
- Constraints: platforms, partners, formats, restrictions
- Who signs off
How scope is confirmed
The scope defines which identity components are included, how they are documented, and how direction is approved along the way.
How delivery is defined
Delivery is the identity system in the components written into the scope, with usage guidance so the people who use it can keep it consistent.
Limits
- Trademark clearance and registration are separate legal services and are not included.
- Naming, market research, verbal identity, packaging, and strategy workshops are not included unless separately scoped.
-
Ongoing support
Monthly Creative Retainer
Recurring creative support for an artist, promoter, company, venue, agency, or team with continuing design needs.
Who it is for
A team that ships graphics every month: show announcements, release rollouts, social assets, sponsor materials, decks.
Typical projects
- Recurring show and event graphics
- Ongoing release and campaign assets
- Social and advertising creative
- Presentation and sponsor materials
What the studio needs
- The kinds of work expected each month
- How requests arrive and who sends them
- Brand rules and supplied asset libraries
- Approval path and turnaround expectations to discuss
How scope is confirmed
The retainer agreement defines the scope, the request process, priority and scheduling, the deliverables, the exclusions, payment terms, any rollover, and cancellation. None of those terms are set by this page.
How delivery is defined
Delivery follows the agreement: files named, sized, and exported for their actual use, organized by request.
Limits
- Not unlimited design or unlimited requests. The agreement defines the volume.
- Terms are written per retainer. There is no standard published rate, minimum term, or rollover.
Pricing position
Scope, timing, deliverables, and price are confirmed for each project.
There are no public packages, tiers, or starting prices. A brief comes in, a written scope goes back, and design starts when the scope is confirmed.
The written scope defines
- Project
- Deliverables
- Dimensions
- Placements
- Deadline
- Revision process
- Usage
- Licensing
- Source-file status
- Third-party costs
- Rush terms
- Payment terms
- Delivery method
Nothing on this site transfers rights, includes source files, grants unlimited use, or permits redistribution of stock, fonts, photographs, or other third-party material. Those terms come from the scope.
