Watch a few Adobe Dimension tutorials/videos and incorporate your hand-drawn artwork into a scene or rendered output.
* Your task is to also bring two printed copies of your composition.
 
* Find our use a high quality printing paper (Epson, Ilford, Red River, Moab, etc...).
 
* Each print should be centered on 8.5" x 11" sheets of paper.
 
* Each print should have written notation on the front or back:
 
** Paper Manufacturer / Paper Type
 
** Printer Manufacturer / Model
 
** Print settings if possible
 
* This is the ideal week to experiment with print settings, write em down!
 
** Try different papers (matte, glossy, luster, bright, natural, warm, cool, and so on).
 
** Try different printers
 
* One print should be your best attempt at a perfect exhibition print.
 
* The other should be more exploratory
 
 
 
Note:
 
* No prints on cheap/standard printer paper.
 
* No prints on paper smaller than 8.5" x 11" or 8" x 10".
 
* No prints without the printer marks and color bars below.
 
 
We created a Photoshop file containing square printers marks and color bars. In Photoshop you can place your art in the center and print your files with the crop and color bars.
