Let me give you one advice.
Make sure you have the money first before you start putting in all that time.

I did it on my own, designed 3 different looking brochures, 5 
different looking businesscards, 3 flyers and it was thrown away. I 
had sponsors who would make the films, and all that was needed was 
money for the prints. I have spend months working on it but they just 
didn't show any interest even though it was decide before that there 
was a budget for it and it should be done. When it came to deciding 
which model and when it was suppose to be ready no one ever replied.

I had loads of Photoshop, Illustrator and Pagemaker/XPress files 
pre-print ready for film and print. Color seperated and everything.

So good luck, hope you have more succes that I did. Am I cynical and 
bitter about it? Yes, but that's the way things happen with a lot of 
projects with KDE that are not code-related.
