LLCFT 286 - Let's Get Digital on the Letterpress

Skip the typesetting, bypass the carving, and get digital with current design software and photopolymer plates to print digitally designed type, illustrations, and halftone images. Spend the first day in the Marriott Library computer lab learning to create the image files required for conversion into film negatives. Then, the following Saturday, use these negatives to make a photopolymer plate from which you will print your work on a letterpress. Meld old and new technologies, and depart with a group portfolio of imaginative work.
