Start with the event
Write down the event name, date, audience and the reason for the award. A clear purpose helps narrow the shape, size and finish.
Keep the hierarchy clear
Choose one main element, then give the event name and supporting text enough space. Check whether small letters will stay readable at the finished size.
Choose the process with the artwork
Metal relief, enamel and printed artwork behave differently. Use the process comparison on the homepage to discuss the look you want with MGM.
Prepare a complete brief
Include the quantity, preferred dimensions, ribbon, finish, packaging, delivery address and event date. Attach a vector logo or a clear image if available.
Review before approval
Check names, spelling, dates, color references, shape and attachment details in the proof. Production should follow the specification you approve.
