What makes ArtistUpgrade Designs Unique?

Effective design isn’t design that just looks good – it’s design with a purpose. When developing graphics for your project, we focus on effectively communicating your brand through solid design principles. The end result is a brand image that can (and should) be applied to all other marketing materials and mediums (such as your website, postcard, compcard, etc).

Design Terms, Defined

Brand : A name or trademark connected with your product. Your Brand is a valuable element because it reflects your unique qualities and what you are able to offer in the marketplace.

Brand Image : The visual attributes one associates with a brand, how the brand owner wants the consumer to perceive the brand – and by extension the branded product or service.


Effective branding will highlight your unique quality behind your Brand. Your ArtistUpgrade designer works with you one-on-one to first define your brand, then develop a brand image that will convey the qualities of your brand in an aesthetically pleasing effective way.

  • Food for Thought

    It takes seven impressions to make an impression. In order to increase your job opportunities, you need to make make it easy for your prospective clients to hire you. We’ve all heard the saying “An image is worth a thousand words”, and creating and brand image that accurately represents who you are, what you do, and what you have to offer, will make it easier for Casting Directors, Agents, and Industry professionals to recognize your strengths, unique talents, and (most importantly) remember you. If they remember you, you are more than likely to get called…period.

     

    Did you know…

    Independent studies have found that:
    • 4% of potential “buyers” (casting, producer, industry) are likely to hire you after you have made 3 good impressions.
    • 26% are likely to hire you after you have made 5 good impressions.
    • 52% are likely to hire you after making 6 good impressions.
    • 80% are likely to hire you after 7 good impressions.

     

    As you can see, you increase your odds significantly by making as many good impressions as possible. From business cards to postcards, the more marketing materials you can pass out with a clear, unified, professional message, the more likely it is that people will remember to contact you when they need someone with your specific talents and skill set.

     

    To sum it all up, your image will create an impression – so it’s important to make the best impression possible.
