Preparing a Digital Image for Screen Printing (Silkscreen, Part 1)
With Michael Peterson

Thursday, December 7th, 7pm
PAVED Arts/AKA Event Space

This course will take participants through the process of preparing a digital image so it can be used as a stencil for screen printing. Topics covered will include techniques for bitmapping images, separating images into CMYK layers for full-colour printing, spot colouring, and limits on how detailed an image can be depending its application (textile vs. paper-based printing).

Participants taking Part 2 will be able to use their image to create a silkscreen stencil, for a two-colour poster.
