Workshop: Printing – Omar Sheikh
Topic – Printing
Presenter: Omar Sheikh
Date: April 30, 2022
In this workshop we will discuss the somewhat mysterious art of ink-jet printing as well as the processes and concepts involved from capture to print. We will touch on managing your captured image, how to ‘properly’ convert from RAW to something else, colour spaces, paper profiles, soft-proofing and to some degree sharpening and monitor calibration although those can be workshop topics of their own. We will combine all these concepts to size and prepare your file for the intended application/frame etc. Prepare to dig deep and learn new things!
