1. Discovery / Brainstorm - This phase is about gathering and discovering. Getting a good understanding of the vision and project goals. We’ll go through a questionnaire, gather content, research and provide a moodboard to determine visual direction.
2. Create / Design / Develop - This is where your project starts to visually come to life. We will look at all aspects of design including logo, colour, typography, photography / illustration style, and design direction to flesh out how the overall execution will all come together.
3. Implementation / Finalize / Launch - All details will be finalized in this phase. Your design will be developed into all intended uses. This phase includes all deliverables, vendor management and final delivery of assets. Project launch. Hooray!
