Fellow Mongers;
As a perl developer I am looking to contract someone on a part time
basis to provide what I will call "graphic design" services for some web
projects. I am a technician and certainly NOT an artistic being!!!
The question(s) I have are what terms and terminology do I use to
express what I am looking for? I thought that those of you who may have
been involved in this type of development for yourself, your small or
large company or simply just know may be able to help me here.
I don't know if I need the skills of one person or multiple people.
Here's what I need:
1) someone to listen to my concepts and ideas and from that come up with
some ideas and sketches that should visually convey those ideas using
combinations of colors, schemes, graphic shapes, font styles, etc. to
achieve an overall site identity.
2) someone to be able to create any graphic shapes, banners, images
(either static or animated) and deliver files of those creations.
3) if the site requires or calls for any flash stuff, then someone to
either create the flash content and/or flash programming to arrive at
the flash file.
I know my questions might seem all over the board but I'm flying blind
at this point. My searches are returning firms that for a zillion
dollars will produce what I am asking but in the scope of "Gone with the
Wind". However, I'm looking for "small" to start. I've been talking
with the graphics and arts departments of several colleges and
universities about offering students and graduates some opportunities to
show their stuff but the same issues keep coming up... what exactly are
you looking for. And I cannot verbalize that using the proper terms.
So, if any of you can provide such information - please do as it is
something that I am sure should eventually become part of most perl
developers' vocabulary?
Thanks all!
