My Normal Cost:
Cover art = $500
ALL other pages = $25-100 a page (depending on complexity)
Logos = $100 (depending on complexity)
I can be a little flexible. I also do this after I get home from my normal
job (I wish I could this as my normal job all day, but I can't) so be sure
to allow me plenty of time as I'll only get a couple of hours a night
(sometimes less) to work on it. As things progress, what I do is send you
jpgs or pdf files to look at so you can see the progress and be involved
from the start and give more ideas or further directions or whatever the
case may be.
Any and all ideas/themes that you want to throw at me are very much welcome,
it'll give me something to go by. Please feel free to let me know what you
are looking for.
If you have a logo already, send that too. Preferably in a vector format such
as an Adobe Illustrator .ai or .eps file. Or a high resolution Photoshop file.
I'll want to know how many pages you want and how many colors. Black and
White, 4 color, 2 color, etc. To determine this you may want to talk to
your printer and ask them what their prices are and make a decision based on
that and let me know so I can design for that in mind. I'd hate to make a
full color layout and you guys only be able to print in 1 or 2 colors ya know?
I work in Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe InDesign mostly.
