Web Design
(static and Flash animation)
Turnaround Time
Turnaround time for Web design and Flash animation services varies depending
on the size and scope of the project.
Guideline for Pricing
Hourly rate for static web design: $75 an hour*
Flash Animation $85 an hour*
*Additional Pricing Info: The hourly rates above are general guidelines for
our services and for changes made by the client after approval of any artwork
produced. Serkworks' prices are based on the project rather than by the hour.
This allows us to adjust the price according to the complexity of the project
and any additional expenses i.e. photography, illustration, third party software
as well as any usage and licensing rights that are included in these services
(See About Usage Rights under Commercial Illustration).
Note: Rush jobs usually involve rescheduling projects that Serkworks already
has in progress. Thus in many cases a premium is added. Serkworks may charge
a "cancellation fee" for jobs terminated by the client after work has been
done but before delivery of the final art, equal to 75% of the negotiated
amount. Any additional expenses that are incurred, i.e. messengers, models,
travel etc. will be added to the final payment
The Process
Step One: Assessing the Project:
We discuss the details of your project. Using the details discussed as a basis
Serkworks will provide you with a personalized estimate. After the estimate
is approved and returned to us along with a down payment of 1/3rd of the total
amount of the project we move on to step two.
Step Two: Conception
Serkworks begins this process by developing an outline of the website in the
form of a flow chart. This chart will detail how the individual pages of the
site will be connected. In addition Serkworks fleshes out a few ideas usually
in the form of rough sketches or comprehensives (comps). We will submit anywhere
from 2 to 3 comps, which can be altered, reworked, tightened up, or combined,
until the concept is acceptable to you. You can ok the final comps either
by email, post or fax. Once we receive a go ahead from you Serkworks can proceed
to constructing the final site. Any additional changes made by the client
after approval of the final sketch will be billed at the hourly rate. After
approval of the final comp we ask that you pay a second installment of 1/3rd
of the total amount of the project.
Step Three: The Final Site
Serkworks now moves on to building the functional site. Once the final site
is complete and you are satisfied with the results Serkworks then receives
the remaining 1/3rd and transfers the files to your server (ftp). Serkworks
can also deliver the files to you via disk or email along with any applicable
usage rights purchased.
