Production for Final Outcome
Format
The format for the final outcome was a gloss paper at 200gsm. The process included a screen print, where inks were blended to achieve the final look. The process of screen print was chosen to create a unique and individual cover which relates to youth culture. The colours were inspired by the Suburban series, as this explores meaning of being isolated, different- a metaphoric approach towards youth culture. The screen prints were scanned and altered on Photoshop, this was then printed front and back in the Print room. Due to the gloss paper, when folding the ink came off. However during the crit, it fits into the theme of time and creates a vintage effect. For development, the folds of the front cover will have to be accurate as this is not accurate. The binding process will also create a tighter finish so the whole book is secure.
The added barcode creates a better quality finish with the added title to create bespoke feel. This was a successful point towards the outcome.
The process included an automatic trimmer where all the pages were cut up accurately. This ensured a better quality finish.
