Printing Processes

Last week in e-Comm we learned about printing processes. We watched videos to learn about the basics and then were asked to write a blog post to check out understanding. Then we started on trying out our own printing process called transfer printing.

We started by picking one or two of our favorite projects we have done this year in e-Comm. Then we filled our image and printed them out. The next day we watercolored two different papers to transfer our projects to. After everyone was done with watercolor and all our papers are dry we learned the next step in the printing process.

First we added mod podge to the back of our paper that we wanted to transfer to the watercolor. Then we used the squeegee to push out the air bubbles and extra mod podge. After that had dried we used water to rub off the paper and were left with our prints.

Overall I think this project was very fun ad not extremely hard but I still learned a lot. This has probably been my favorite project in graphic design so far this year.

After we had footage we all edited together since we couldn't have everyone at the same time, so we had one person run editing and everyone else helping and we rotated the main editor. As a group I think we worked together really well and dealt with the issues w...

Sophomore Semester 2 Video Reflection

Napoleon Dynamite: For this project we were assigned to recreate a movie trailer in about a month. Over this project we faced many challenge, but are biggest challenge was scheduling. With these challenges I learned many lessons about managing time and staying focused. After turning in the project we  feedback on camera angles and focusing shots. We did not change very much because by that point the project was over and there was not much we could do in the time allowed. I the end this video was not the best quality but it resembled the actual video well and we got done everything we needed to. Short Film: For this project we started by everyone writing synopsis, treatments, and scripts then we voted as a class picking five scripts we wanted to make. After getting our groups and scripts we started pre-production deciding shots, actors, and locations. For this project our time was very limited only having three weeks to do everything.  The biggest challenges we faced was ac...
