Agenda
-
Class begins: Intro to Risograph printer
We cover the basics on how it works, and share examples of Risograph prints
-
Work on your design!
Create one or two masters, which are stencils created by the Risograph printer. Each master will represent one layer (or color) of your image. You can bring original graphics to scan directly into the Risograph or create images using art supplies. Once you complete your masters, select one to two colors you would like to print with, along with the paper. Designs should be completed by 8:30pm to allow time for printing.
-
Time to print
Once you're done with your design, sign up for the printing queue. You'll print (20) copies, along with a few extra for you to trade with other attendees. After you've printed your work, feel free to hang out or continue with the rest of your day.
