Graphic design, aesthetic design, layout, the entire deal needs to be done, it needs to be done well, and it needs to be done quickly. The only thing provided would be articles, a list of contributors, and maybe two or three photos. It would be your responsibility to provide photographs to accompany the articles provided. Quality needs to be comparable to print magazines like VICE or the like.

Price is not an issue, we just want honest quotes at this point, as well as a description of how many hours/staff members would be involved on your end. Please provide a comprehensive price breakdown, including the cost to have the job rushed, as well as samples of similar work.
