Carrying out printing techniques

After the completion of my info graphic, I’ve had the task to actually use printing techniques to create a print. I first took part in a task where my aim was to take pictures of objects and words that are embossed. For the next printed task I used crayons to colour in a sheet which was then engraved into by a sharp object to complete the print. For the next printing task I took a picture from the internet, applied a threshold to it and then printed it onto acetate. The black parts of the image were then cut out leaving only the outline. Finally all the space inside of the outline was coloured in using paint and pens, this gave the final print. The final printing technique involves printing a created design onto a t-shirt. By creating a design in Photoshop, my skills will increase and i will feel more confident on using the programme, once the image is created it will be printed out on magic touch. This will then be compressed onto a t-shirt giving the final print.
