Poster Experimentation - Part 3 - 3D Anaglyph - 19.03.23
I was still thinking about how I could try and create this screen print and was thinking about how I was not able to select the right colours when creating the different screen prints to create the effect. After typing out what I have done in the past couple of days, I felt like I was selecting the wrong colour values when creating screen prints (using CMYK) and I think that the correct way of doing this is to actually select the colour values using the colour range selection underneath the select menu in photoshop.
The video below shows my findings when using this technique compared to the separation of the CMYK channels;
I found out that the first problem that I will be facing is layering. The layer that has been technically been printed first will the prominent colour for the image. I figured out that printing the Magenta layer first before anything else could result in a better photo compared to losing the image through the Cyan layer and then just having a blue image throughout.
I had used masking layers in Photoshop as masking the layers would enable the layer to have transparencies throughout and would only show the parts of the layer that would have ink on and thus, being able to replicate the screen printing process.
All in all, this might work or might not and is best to try it out and experiment IRL rather than using Photoshop techniques to try it out.
