    Thanks for the very clear tutorial! Learned a couple new things :) Also just in case you're not aware, you can Alt + click on a a layer's eyeball for a quick way of only seeing that layer, and Alt + click again to bring back all the previous visible layers, just another handy time saver.

    @viktoryosiel 6 лет назад +4

    thank you for the tutorial, very clear, I do have experience with photoshop but no silk screening, the only part I didn't get was adding stroke to each color, I know you mentioned is related to bleeding, can someone comment a little more? thanks

    • @DementedDistraction
      @DementedDistraction 6 лет назад +2

      When printing on a black or dark colored shirt, you need to first lay down your design in white ink as a foundation for the color, otherwise the colored ink (the red and blue in this design) will come out very dark and muddy.
      By adding the stroke, it gives that white foundation, but he reduced the edge of the white by 2 pixels so it would eliminate the possibility of the white ink bleeding out from under the red and blue when the shirt was printed.

    • @jasonenz4238
      @jasonenz4238 5 лет назад

      DementedDistraction did he reduce the white or increase the over color? I do everything through Ai, photoshop is new to me :)
      Thanks!!!

    • @DementedDistraction
      @DementedDistraction 5 лет назад

      He reduced the white, and he did so by such a small margin that the edges of the red and blue wouldn't be darker than the interior sections of those colors.

  • @ScreenPrintR
    @ScreenPrintR 10 лет назад

    Thank you this is awesome. One of my week points. What if you want to only print two of the colors. Maybe the white hand and tea bag are the color of the t-shirt.Lets say you want to make sure the red or blue doesn't bleed over. Would you stroke the Red and Blue so the cross over the white and don't leave a gap. Guess I'm really asking if you have lets say a border. Would you put a stroke on one so they choke? Hope I'm asking this right.

    • @LearnHowToScreenPrint
      @LearnHowToScreenPrint  10 лет назад

      ScreenPrintR- Hi. Thank you for watching! So if you want to print just the red and blue- just make the "eye" for that layer visible- and print that layer while the other "eye's for each layer" is hidden. Do this for each layer you want to print to make a screen film positive for that layer. As for the gap- you'll have to just try for yourself. If it is a really tight butt registration you may not want to add a stroke- or yes they may "over lap". Hope this helped!

  • @FireVideos

    New to screen printing. This video helped me tremendously.
    Question though. How do you use the registration marks. Did a test screen and obviously the registration marks were burnt in and ink flows through. What's the process for using them and not burning them into the screen?

    • @LearnHowToScreenPrint
      @LearnHowToScreenPrint  3 года назад

      You want them burnt into the screens- helps make sure the design is straight on the pallet- and also need then for lining up/ registration multi color prints. Once your ready to print- just use tape to block ink from coming through

    • @LearnHowToScreenPrint
      @LearnHowToScreenPrint  8 лет назад

      Thanks for watching a commenting. To print the files just send them to the printer with your transparency films. I would say no this is not production ready- it is for our shop but i suppose most shop would have different methods of creating film positives. This method works in our shop.
