Final Development - Studio Brief 01 - OUGD504

Today was quite hectic as I had to design the overleaf of the brochure and proof everything to make sure nothing was out of place before final printing.

I wanted to double check the printer and what the output orientation is, this is to be able to do a full colour prototype before going into digital print.

B&W mock-up



I made the outlines invisible and the crop marks visible to ensure a clean cut when I need it.

This helped me figure out how the printer worked and gave me the ability to create this prototype:




The laser printer has given the proto a really nice faded effect to the imagery, but to my annoyance, I never gave the tone enough time to dry and adhere to the paper, so when I fed the paper back through with the reverse side, the toner just spread and became smudged. This won't be an error once I use the proper protocol and use the duplex facility in digital print.
