It has been awhile since I have really done any client work. I have forgotten how difficult clients can be to work with when they have no idea what they want. BUT I never back down from a challenge. This one is tough.
The challenge is to come up with something that pleases their team. They loved my samples that landed me the gig, but are not pleased with a single design I present them with. They want it to be simple but not geometric. They want it to reference Christianity, but be universal in religious reference. They have provided a long list of what they do not want, yet very little in what they DO want.
My options seem quite limited. I know something will come to me. As a young designer, this experience is invaluable because clients are like that. It's my job to guide them and solve their problem.
The more I continue on this project, the more frustrating it becomes- We live in a world so inundated with images produced digitally, that coming up with something so groundbreakingly different from anything else seems damn near impossible.
Wish me luck.
Oh and my doctor diagnosed me with Bronchitis & Laryngitis. Treatment for the latter includes 24 hours of voice rest ending at 2pm today. What a GREAT way to conduct a teleconference with my client.
