As an extra piece of design to help new students I decided to create a screenprinted A2 poster that could be used by all the first years to put in the studio and write down deadlines. The design of the calendar is the same as the calendar that folds out from the leaflet, with the motivational phrase 'plan now. design later.' behind the text.
I found that screenprinting at larger scale was harder than ususal and needed more pressure and ink. I am happy with some of the prints but many of them have smudges and ghosts.
I believe that the reason for this poor quality of print was the fact that the positive which I used to expose the screen was a bit blurry.
Despite this, I got a few prints which I came out well. I managed to mixed the blue ink with more binder so that it was more transparent and easier to write over the top.
To put the design in context, I have placed it by the sign in sheet and group sheets for the first years.
Alternatively it could be put up in the studio.
