Screenprinting Induction

In this screenprinting induction we got shown how to make a screen and how to apply the ink on to our paper. To make a screen we have to look and see if there is a clean and free one to use. We then have to put some emulsion on the screen so when in the molten machine will make the shape that we desire. The image that we have chosen has to be in black and white because when we put the screen into the printing stage the black bits will only get printed. 

One we have transfer the shape onto the emulsion bit, we have to take the edges so the colour will not got out of it. Then we place or screen onto this machine which also holds in place not only the screen but the paper when we apply the ink colour. 

Overall, again I had experience of doing this process in A-level, but it was good learn about it again.
