Design is always subjected to the individual preferences and of course, focal point of the needs, hence your design shall be done as close as possible to your brief (as you know your consumers best).
Completion of design work should be within 5 working days upon receiving of design brief and materials, unless unforeseen circumstances like; drastic changes were to be made (which is more than 50% differ from the brief) or etc. In situations, there may be some further correspodence for better clarification during the design execution period. Hope that it will not caused any inconvenience to you, but it eventually helps to bring the design another step nearer to your expectation.
Apart from the above, the final artwork would be done in Adobe Illustrator CS3 (text will be pathed), and will be "zipped" together with all the other linked image documents. Besides, I will try to send visual(s) in PDF for your approval or advices, before the artwork is to be compiled (no hardcopy will be sent throughout the process of this job). Lastly but not least, if resolution of images were to be too low for print usage, I shall encourage for a change.
Please do kindly note that the cost of the bid will only consist of the design execution work, not inclusive of any colour separation nor final print process. Any sourcing of images and usage of third-party stock images needed, will be a separated charge.
