Field Trip: Touch Print

At Touch Print, the guy in charge asked us if we knew the difference between RGB and CMYK and only Jon knew the answer and it was actually related to printing and the inks and why we should set a file to either RGB or CMYK depending on the print.

He showed us many ways of using transfer printing and even hooked up a transfer print with lights for an Iron Man look. It was eye-opening as I always viewed transfer print as being 2D and “flat” but he made me see that by fusing transfer print with technology, a small thing can go a long way. There were a lot of material that he explained we could test on and also explained which spray adhesive is better for which type of transfer print and the material that is being printed on.

The field trip was very interactive and fun and it showed me to explore different options and don’t be limited to what I only know. Instead I should just try and explore to come out with something unique.
