A few of my ideas...

Initiating Projects with Creative ServicesConCordia Seminary, St. LouiS

1. Download and complete a Job Request Form on SemNet

Please plan ahead, and submit project requests at least 90 days in advance of the print deadline or event date for your project. Contact the Creative Services department in advance if you are requesting a new project that has not been previously produced ([email protected]).

Provide all information required on the Creative Services Job Request Form including requested completion date, quantity, services, and budget information.

2. Provide content

In addition to the Creative Services Job Request form, send any content required to produce your project. This information may vary, but usually includes an outline, edited copy, date, time, and registration information. Missing information may cause a delay in production.

Creative Services will assist with writing and editing, however, the client requesting the project is ultimately responsible for providing content.

3. Meet with Creative Services staff

If needed, schedule a meeting with creative services staff to review details of your project, develop a marketing plan, and estimate the cost of your campaign.

4. Scheduling, production timeline & deadlines

Creative Services will schedule projects in the order requests are received, and around core projects for the Seminary campus. Event-based projects may take precedence over other projects due to deadlines that cannot be adjusted. Work on other projects may be delayed in order to complete projects for events. Content for event-based projects is, however, also subject to the 90-day rule.
