In this Skillshare class I take you behind the scenes of three real client projects from initial email to final delivery! Unlike my past classes where I focus in on a specific tool or skill set, this class is focused on the process of working with a client to complete a project, though fear not, I do talk about the tools I’m using along the way. I’ll go through both a range of projects:

Redesigning a book cover
Illustrating and designing a postcard
and Re-skinning a web app

and tools

Illustrator
Photoshop
iPad + Procreate

It’s one thing to learn the technical skills to complete the work for a project, but it’s quite another to learn how to manage the whole project. Take this as your chance to intern or shadow a designer (me!), right from your computer. Some of the things we’ll touch on are:

Negotiating quotes
Providing contracts
Apologizing to clients
Skeletons/rough designs
Handling revisions and presenting iterations
Making decisions about fonts, color, and layout based on function instead of aesthetic
Balancing decision making with letting your client lead the way
Being flexible for different types of clients
File management
Asset Delivery
Time tracking
and more!

See you in class! Oh, and feel free to stop by my locker (... er Instagram) to chat afterwards if you have time :)
