 College GD Student needs basics for screen printing
I am a graphic design college student and i have received a job doing the tshirt designs for a local shop mainly for sports teams. This is exactly what i would like to get into so i'm excited. However I didn't realize that screen printing is completely different then on paper. I don't have a problem coming up with the design, it's making it screen printable. I know to use the color palette for pantones from version 8. What i'm having a problem with is the halftone dots. They can all be the same frequency and angle if i'm planning on it being a solid color right? But what if it's a gradient/fade? How do i know what to do with the dots?
If you could help me out with just the basics so i can get my designs ready for the printer that would be great.
Thanks. Any help will be great. |
