Studio Brief 2 Printing Poster
Today I printed the poster and had to decide what paper stock and size to use in the process. The visual language had to translate throughout all of our work so I analysed some of the other work that had been complete and decided from that what stock to use. The invitations for the exhibition had been printed onto thick water colour paper. This gave it a very polished and professional aesthetic that made the print really crisp and clean. I thought it would be relevant to use the same paper in the printing of the poster.
After this decision I also decided to use A3 sized paper. I thought that this would be the best size to convey the halftones colours. From a distance you can hardly tell there is colour there, but when printed large and up close it's obvious. The paper stock also allows sustainability as it is so tough, it would be difficult to tear. Hopefully this large and heavy weight print can attract the attention of others.
