No Offset Press? No Problem--Teach Duotone Production with Screen Printing
Hersey, Cara L.
Tech Directions, v65 n10 p19-21 May 2006
Teachers can integrate halftone or duotone production into a graphic communications class even if they lack access to an offset press. The approach described in this article, in fact, offers a benefit in that the dots involved in screen printing halftones and dutones can be enlarged to make them easily visible, while those used in offset printing are so small that they are hard for students to see. This article begins with a bit of history and background that provides information on what duotones are and some of the considerations in producing them, then describes some instructional objectives and a procedure for instruction on halftone or duotone production. (Contains 3 notes and 9 figures.)
