Working With Us
Answers to the questions we are asked most often by new clients.
How long does a typical project take?
Timescales depend on scope. A single graphic piece or short motion sequence may take a few weeks, while a full creative website or film can run over several months. We agree a schedule with milestones during the briefing stage so you always know what comes next.
Do you work with independent musicians and artists?
Yes. Specialist music, photography and creative artist websites are a core part of our practice. We design sites that present your work clearly, load quickly and give visitors a memorable first impression of your creative identity.
Can you still build in Flash?
We create Flash and HTML solutions. Where an existing project needs maintaining or an interactive experience is best suited to that format, we can advise on the approach and build it accordingly, while recommending modern HTML for new work wherever it serves the audience better.
How is pricing decided?
Each quote is based on the deliverables, the level of animation or technical work involved and the number of revision rounds. We provide a written estimate before any work begins, so there are no surprises when the invoice arrives.
Who owns the finished files?
Ownership and usage rights are confirmed in the agreement before the project starts. Clients receive the final deliverables they have commissioned, and we are always happy to discuss licensing for wider use of the work.

Our Creative Process
Every commission begins with a conversation about your audience and goals. From there we develop concepts, test them quickly and refine the chosen direction into finished graphics, films or websites.
Communication stays open throughout, so feedback is easy to give and decisions are easy to track.
