General Project Updates - 15.05.23
This is just a general blog post about my project.
Timing. That is the issue that I have at the moment. I feel like this is due to me not doing work during the holidays and not being able to test this screen print properly.
One of the problems that I am facing is that I needed to get these prints sorted by the end of next week, even if I do just one poster, at least this is an outcome for this project.
Screen printing takes a while and I feel like no one really talks about that during testing of the screen prints and this has caused me to struggle with timing with the project.
This has also led to me only screen printing just one poster as this is the only outcome I can do, as I also have a part-time job alongside this project. I also needed to rely on people at this time and this has caused me to become too comfortable with the outcome, as I am a very independent graphic designer that can design things on his own and complete tasks on my own as well.
But due to the lectures being busy with work and other things and not understanding that screen printing takes a while to do, then it was only natural that there might not be enough time to create every poster that I have designed and completed.
There is also the problem of facilities being broken within the college, which meant that we are not able to print the transfer images onto the screens and thus, not able to screen print this at all.
I am just going to have to just use a regular inkjet printer as this is the only thing that can print at the posters and have the effect of screen printing.
I know that this is not the most optimal thing to do for this project, but this is the only thing that I can do at this point in the project.
