AARONS CGI PLAN YOUR PROJECT
WHAT I NEED FROM YOU
Not sure where to start? You’re in the right place. You don’t need to have everything figured out. Most clients don’t. This simply helps me understand your idea so I can guide you and recommend the best way to bring it to life.
Short notes are fine. Skip anything you’re unsure about:
- Tell me about your idea
What is it? A rough outline or synopsis is perfect. Include approximate length if you can. - Who is it for?
Who needs to understand it? - What’s the goal?
What should happen after they see it? - Any visual references
Images, sketches, logos, or videos that show the style or level of detail you like. - Script or storyboard (if you have one)
- Timing
Estimated start and completion dates. - Budget (if you’re comfortable sharing)
- Anything else?
Optional, but helpful.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
Once I’ve reviewed your information and we’ve agreed on direction and budget, I’ll take care of the rest:
- Finalise the brief
- Set a clear schedule and delivery date
- Develop script and storyboard (if needed)
