SUMMARY:Prepress Essentials: Understanding the Digital Production Workflow (Full Online)
DESCRIPTION:The more skilled we become in graphic programs, the more we overlook the first law of print production: The tail wags the dog. Meaning the output process at the end dictates the workflow methods at the beginning. No artist should pick up the mouse without knowing where and how the file is going to be printed.\nKnowing little about print production processes is just half the problem. The other half is not knowing how all these variables impact the printed output, sometimes with unwanted results.\nMany are experts at editing images, but don’t know how the highlights and shadows will survive on press. Or they don’t know about halftones, much less how to deal with them. Most don’t know, and don’t care, about ink limits. Some know only coated and uncoated paper. Many can’t tell an ICC profile from another.\nMethod of Teaching\nThis is a live instructor-led online seminar with participant engagement via Q&A. This class will use Zoom as main conferencing platform.\nWhat will be covered\n\n\n\nWhat to ask suppliers besides “how much”\nThe critical processes involved in print production, with emphasis on how they can become problems or solutions\nWhy we should control the amount of ink in our files, not on press\nOverview of the different printing processes\nFinishing processes from binding to varnish\nPaper types and paper properties\nOverprinting and knockout, and when to override the settings\nColor separation essentials\nPrepress checklist before handing off to your printing press\n\n\n\nWho will benefit\n\nGraphic artists, desktop publishers, layout artists, art directors\nPress supervisors and prepress staff\nAll print production people from the old school who plan to work in a fully digital environment\n\nPrerequisite:\n\nSome exposure to print production, either as graphic artist, prepress provider, or press supervisor, or\nSome background either in computer graphics or traditional (film-based) production\n\nRequirements:\nStudents must have Zoom application and stable internet connection.\nBenefits\n\nIncludes e-certificate of completion\nLifetime Free Refresher  (You may attend again the same course,  free of charge, on a space-available basis.)\nAlumni discount\nEnroll in our L2C (Learning to Certification) programs and get a globally recognized certificate. This course is part of:\n\n\nVisual Graphic Design NC III certificate program.\n\n
