Last day of screen printing

With the intention that all that was to be done was the text, the already don layers were took and the text tried to be screen printed. I then figured out that the board was blocked and so the text wouldn't come through at all, so the screen was power washed many of times to try and get rid of the emulsion which may have still been there. However, this wasn't working so I started of the process again with a new small screen. The process was started again and another positive was printed, with this time having the process happen much quicker because of knowledge and lack of time. When the board was finally ready the text was printed, and worked this time. It was too found that by printing both the title and the artists was unsuccessful because of the wrong alignment. So the title was covered when printing the artist to try and sort the problem out. It proved difficult to try and align the artists to end up not at the very top of the page. With the alignment not ending up the best, it was decided not to add the shapes because of the lack of time left for error within the process.


The final results;
 

With the final ones, they were cut to size and folded, however the first lot of folded ones didn't seem to fit the cassette properly so they were re cropped mark and re folded, to which created some unprofessional folds, to which needs to be learnt to do better next time, but however works when in the cassette tapes.
