Process Details

As a freelance media designer, I specialize in crafting visually stunning and functional designs across web technology, print media, and photo-editing. With years of experience and a meticulous approach, I ensure that every project is tailored to meet your unique needs and exceed your expectations.

1. Research & Planning 

The initial stage builds a solid foundation with clear instruction of project goals and scope of work. Collaboration together to gather information about the client’s media design project to better understand the requirements while also addressing turnaround time, fee negotiations, and project timeline. 

  • Discussing the Contract Agreement 
  • Confirming Turnaround Timeline 
  • Payment Negotiations 
  • Deliverables Handoff 
  • Other Legalities or Details of the Media Project 

2. Design Guide 

The design phase defines style guidelines and provides visual mock-ups of web and print design projects; in photography, this phase is used to clearly communicate your vision and expectations for the edits, including specific adjustments, style preferences, and any desired outcomes. 

  • Visual Aesthetics.
  • Color Palette.
  • Typography.
  • Wireframes and Layouts.
  • File Exchange from client to designer. 

3. Project Development 

The Designer, that’s me, performs the tasks of building, creating, and editing to develop the project based on our gathered information from the first two phases. This process requires open communication throughout the process to address any questions or concerns and ensure the development is on track.  

  • Building the web project to the specifications outlined.  
  • Composing and Illustrating Print Projects to the specified requirements. 
  • Editing and Retouching Photography Projects. 
  • Preparing deliverables for hand-off by setting up and packaging files for export in the correct formats.  

4. Testing & Review

It is crucial and imperative that every media design project is subject to testing, review, and revisions. Project review ensures the final product meets client expectations by making revisions based on client feedback and review.

  • Testing UX/UI for every page and element of website project.
  • Review to revise designs to meet requirements.
  • Add finishing touches on print projects such as lamination or binding.

5. Delivery and Launch

This is the final step in the design project process where completed websites are launched for public access and finished project assets are handed off to the client. 

  • Final Edited Images 
  • Print Distribution 
  • Asset Turnover
