Our final assignment for my Typography class at the University of Denver was (in my group’s case) a poster for Buy Nothing Day 2006. Rick Griffith had us working at his studio in downtown Denver, MATTER. My group each produced a proposal in Illustrator/Photoshop and mine was the one we chose to produce. We finalized a design, with some pointers from Rick, and then we broke down the image into color plates (so to speak) for screen printing. I printed each of these plates in black on transparency, then we used the transparencies to expose screens. We took turns printing the screens on some huge glossy paper, and our posters were born!
