I am currently working on an animated video. Original contact for the client had an understanding of design. Asked for very abstract visuals. The client has an amazing colour palette in their brand guide.
I was so excited for the project—I cancelled a previously booked vacation.
Just before we send over character concepts—I hear from my boss that the original guy that hired us has been fired. (sweat flowed down my cheek)
The new contact said she loves the abstract visuals... but let’s make the characters more proportional and let’s give them some proper faces. Let’s add colours that are not in brand. Sends me stock vectors for reference. We want this to be MORE abstract—so let’s use a speech bubble with a face in it.
The mentality where I work right now is; do as the client says. Don’t argue.
Are other agencies like this? If not—how do you usually address these kinds of issues?
