Due to my detour into acrylic paints etc, I unfortunately didn't have much work to print today (specifically my leaflet). I put this down to poor time management - I should have realised I didn't have time for such experimentation as a late stage of my project. On the flip side of this, I wouldn't have found the Kyle T. Baker brushes that I have quickly taken into my illustrative heart.
Concerning the prints I did have -
My bookmarks were sized incorrectly due to my own idiocy preventing me to print them today. I will have to rectify these at some point. In the future I will have to double check all of my document sizes to prevent this issue from happening.
My A1 poster printed very well. I settled on printing my redesigned cinema one sheet as feedback suggested this was the better of the two. I personally felt that the older one would actually look better printed at such a size.
Finally I attempted to print my stickers and well, it didn't happen - sort of. The new digital print guy is a bit of a tool in my opinion. When I booked the print slot James informed me that whoever was on at the time would be able to walk me through the technical side of sticker printing so I could prepare them myself in the future (in turn making the process much easier for the staff). However, when it came to making them, the chap seemed annoyed that I asked to make stickers and instead of walking me through it, grumbled (obscenities) to himself and quickly prepped them. I still have no idea how to do this process. Hilariously they, after printing, failed to cut so he informed me I would have to wait roughly two hours to get them done as he had a back log of other print bookings. I am more than annoyed and have decided to instead cut the stickers myself. I don't look forward to using digital print again next week.
