Production Timeline

Allow for 3 business days from receipt of assets and direction

  • Production timeline begins from receipt of ALL client assets.
  • Express units have locked layouts to minimize edits and expedite creative development.
  • If assets aren’t provided to spec, we can support re-sizing but this will increase turnaround times, adding additional days for static storyboarding before live demo builds (+2 days, estimated).

Note: We have different layouts depending on your campaign needs, however once a layout is selected for production, only minor animations can be edited. UI and UX edits are not supported in this custom creative service tier.

Timeline Example

  • Kick Off Call to discuss assets and deliverables
  • Day 1: Assets Received and processed
  • Day 2: Demo Mocks sent for approval
  • Day 3: Approval, Setup & Launch
