Level 5- Communicating and Understanding Briefs- part one of two

Commission:
 Noun

An instruction, command, or role given to a person or group.

"one of his first commissions was to design the the next cover of the magazine"

 So clearly a brief or commission will give me the instructions I need to perform the task set for me exactly how the client wants it. This is where communication becomes important. Without constantly communicating throughout a job, the direction of work may be misled and not meet the client's expectations. Today though, there are numerous ways of communicating with someone and usually a combination of methods is the best way to come to agreements.

Possible forms of communication:

•  E-mail
• Skype
• Telephone
• letter by post

 some people it can be easy to overthink your reply and send something totally Rushed or way to  formal. a  balance must be found in  between the methods of communication to avoid any misdirection between the client and the service provider.

 I would ideally like to have contact through e-mail and telephone with the option to meet, Skype and text if needed .
