today i learned (or re-learned, if you will) a valuable lesson about client-designer communication. you can have too much, and you can have too little, but having a balance that works for both parties is insanely important.
i also realized how important lists are while keeping up with communication. while working on design work for large format print shop, certain file formats are crucial for work to be printed correctly, as well as colour profiles and numbers. being clear about these limitations from the start is the only way to go. so, this has inspired me to create new materials for both my day job, and freelance job. it’s these life lessons and sudden inspirations that help me feel good about my artistic growth (even though they are painful at the time).
