OUIL603 crit

Main points to take:
  • It's good that the three completed screen prints so far show different approaches to the process - stock, colour number and bitmapping, but the screen printed posters brief needs to show how much I've learnt from these and how I'm improving. Document this, and go back to some of these later down the line to see how much better I've become at them.
  • My colours can come out really splotchy and this looks bad.
  • From hearing others being given advice on size and format, I decided to have a look at what most posters are generally printed at, and it's usually 18"x24". This is bigger than A2 which I didn't want to have to deal with at first, but maybe it would be for the best in order to standardise my designs with the real world a bit. Sonnenzimmer sell their posters at this size as well.
The next poster I design, I'll try and adhere to 18"x24" and will also print on A1 stock to trim down.
Learning in action
