FOR YOUR PERSONAL FOLDER

1. Please start tracking your hours for your invoice in the job folder. Fill out your contracts if you haven't already done so.
2. Visual Briefs - 3 total (one for logo, one for pitch one - looks for flyers, one for pitch two - looks for flyers)
3. Pitch (printed and typed for your ideas for the RockNRide material)
4. You will print out a revised visual brief for the combo
5. revised proposal (team)
6. Approval sheet to sign on Tuesday for when they decide what they are going to go with for the pitch.

-You need this before you meeting together where you are going to discuss your material that you've found and your ideas to come up with the grand pitch that you are going to send me and the client.

FOR MONDAY
You need to have a revised pitch that incorporates both of your ideas and input. Remake the visual brief to be explanitory to the client. (aka walk through font, color, and looks - don't overload them. 2 pages should do it). Write the new proposal together and present two options for looks. I will send this onto the team to look over before the phone meeting on Tuesday.

FOR TUESDAY
Start working up some thumbnails of logo looks to discuss in class on Tuesday after we walk through the pitch.

Good meeting ladies! Onto the next one.
