I'm having doubts about designing the manual because I don't know what kind of paper we're printing on / or how many colors we can use. Cost is everything. I need to know!
Vanessa - These are design choices paper-color, etc. which determine cost. My answer is that it is a "designers" role to figure those things out. If your unsure, call me.
I know, duhhh, but I'm concerned for the budget. I don't want to commit to something conceptually if Healthy Homes can't afford it. So, should I design for newsprint? Should I design full-color, image-heavy pages as I see fit?

ReplyDeleteNothing we will show tomorrow will be committed to. Think about what Bernard says how concept is in no way related to delivery vehicle.
ReplyDeleteThis is true and really tomorrow we are showing concepts on paper.
If this is really holding you back, I would start with something like this:
B&W PHOTOS - (FULL COLOR IS EXPENSIVE0
2 PMS COLORS
If your still confused call me and we can talk as I am a much faster talker than typer.
