printer guide

April 15, 2009

Well my first real published book came in the mail today. Its pretty exciting to see something you created in print with a cover and everything. Like is said before we have always designed mock ups of what a cover would look like or what a spread should look like but there is just something about seeing it bound and with a real cover and meaningful pages that all live together in one thing, that is just so rewarding. I have seen everyone else’s but it wasn’t until I got my own that it all came together and made me feel so good about it. I feel like I already explained the project so ill just recap. We were all assigned 2 printers to research and in the end we were to design a page for this book that could live on its own and stand alone but that meant that every single page in this book was going to be different. Which makes it an even more beautiful end product because it has so much personality. And we have all the information from everyone’s research about the printers at our own disposal. Anytime we need it its there.
