- Voice Over Script: Exact verbiage, punctuation and phonetic pronunciation for voice over script.
- Logo(s): Please provide a high quality Media Kit and/or guidelines for logo usage (if available)
- Photo(s): Size/order/position
- If providing photos smaller than specified, certain revision requests may not be possible.
- Additional Creative Direction
- Sizing of Text and images
- Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Focus of information and design elements
- Colour Scheme
iv). Chargeable Revision requests include but are not limited to:
- Revising text/fonts
- Replacing one photo with another
- Complete re-design
- Client changes their mind
- Major layout/position/design tweaks
v). If the Blue Monkee production team or vendor is at fault, no fees will be charged to the client.
