DÉPHASAGE / Private Examination

Bring your
material.

Private Examination

£750

Bring something you are preparing to publish, launch or materially revise.

DÉPHASAGE gives it an independent reading before the next decision is made.

One principal communication object, connected to one real decision. It can be a work in progress or something already out in the world that you are revising.

Intention → Interpretation → Distance → Potential

I examine what the material is trying to communicate, what readings its words, images, structure and context support, where interpretation moves away from intention, and what should be preserved, clarified or developed.

This is a reasoned independent reading, not a measurement of audience response.

The scope

One defined communication object. Up to three connected pages or screens, with a maximum of 2,500 words in total. Associated static visuals are included.

You receive

  • Annotated material
  • A 3–5 page Examination Note
  • A 30-minute decision conversation

Turnaround

Five working days after the scope is agreed, payment received, intake completed and all agreed material supplied.

The fee

£750 for the complete agreed scope.

The examination does not include full rewriting, design production, SEO, audience research or implementation. Illustrative wording may be included where it helps demonstrate a finding.

Show me the piece.

Share a link or describe what you would like examined. Include the static images that belong with it. If your material is larger than the scope above, tell me which part needs attention.

Tell me about the decision.

What are you preparing to publish, launch or revise? Who is it for? What feels unresolved? Mention any deadline. You do not need to know exactly what is wrong.

Submit material

Use the form below to start the conversation. I’ll read your enquiry and confirm whether the material fits this examination.

We’ll agree the scope and timing, then I’ll send an invoice for £750, payable by bank transfer before work begins. The five-working-day period begins once scope, payment, intake and all agreed material are complete.

Sending an enquiry does not commit you to a booking or begin paid work.
