THE REJECTED FRAMES

The artboards nobody shipped are the ones that show the judgement

Design tools keep everything — explorations, variants, the version with the comment saying this does not work and here is why. The shipped frame is a conclusion. The forty beside it are the argument.

THE CLIENT-WORK QUESTION

Ownership and identity both handled before anything moves

  1. 01

    Establish what exists

    Six questions about the tools in use. Nothing is accessed at this stage.

  2. 02

    Ownership sets the boundary

    Work belonging to a client is treated differently from the studio's own process. Scope reflects that, before signature.

  3. 03

    Anonymization in preparation

    Identifying fields, including client branding, are handled as part of preparing the data.

  4. 04

    Paid on completion

    Typically $100K to $2M, Net 30 to 60, once the data is approved, shared, and anonymized.
