About the final project for: Risograph Technique: Design a Self-published Editorial Project

Risograph Technique: Design a Self-published Editorial Project

“Here we are at the end of this Domestika course. Thank you for following me this far! As a course project, you will have to make a photo book. To do this, first decide on the materials and printing techniques that will be used for your project. Then familiarize yourself with the Risograph technique, exploring some concepts related to the management of the graphic field and packaging techniques. Once you are confident, develop your final project: using Adobe software, carry out the necessary steps for the design, up to the print files required by Risograph. And if at first it all seems a bit difficult, follow our case study but remember that even the smallest detail can make the difference! The beauty is that from the use (even improper) of the risograph, objects of great editorial value can be born, both from a stylistic and technical point of view!

Now share your project in the forum! Show everyone both the final result and the work steps, documenting each step with an image and describing what you did with a short explanation. As soon as possible, I will be happy to comment on your work. Check out your colleagues’ projects and encourage them by commenting on what they’ve shared: don’t miss out on a valuable opportunity to engage with the creative community. Thanks again for walking this journey with me!”

These limitations are often the key to your project's success. Together, we have delved into two essential core topics. The first was a focus on designing a self-published edition, which can be interesting for anyone with a project to share on paper. The second topic was about the risograph printing technique. Upon acquiring...”
