FINAL PRINT
I have chosen this as my final print design, out of the other two hand illustrations I think this works best in terms of relating to the brief and showing a celebration as the hands act as a coming together of all to fight racism- thus relating to the actual event as well. The images have been split into two layers to prepare for the two colour screen prints, as of yet I am not 100% sure what colours to use for my prints I think this may be decided on the day but green would be an appropriate colour to use as it relates to ska and it is a very neutral and earthy colour.
Each layer of my design printed in black and white ready for it to be exposed on to my screen. I decided to fill in some of the hands black to see if that would give me more of an interesting print instead of just the outlined hands- as of yet I am unsure if this will work but I think it will be more effective than just the outlines of each hand.
This is my prepared screen after it had been washed using B-side and B-strip to remove the previous images from the screen in order for mine to print on. This was a long process as it took a while to remove all the previous remaining print from the screen so on the first day of screen printing I didn't get chance to actually expose my images ready for print.
After applying the emulsion and letting that dry I then exposed the image on the screen using the vacuum. So it could then be washed off to remove the stencil.
