A Korean brand called Prenda :-)

Screen printing is a great way to create similar effects, especially when you add the transparent base! I started out doing more screen printing originally, and I'm hoping to do more of it again. Hope you can create some fun riso-inspired prints!

안녕하세요! 프로젝트를 잘 제출해서 다행이에요!! 네, 인스타로 dm하시면 개인 워크샵 예약 해도 돼요. 한국에 돌아올 때 우리 작업실에 한 본 가보면 좋겠습니다~ ^^

@@nomercy_studio I use an iPad Pro circa 2018! Love it and it’s still going strong!

@@KelBelter okay fantastic! Thanks for sharing!

@@jordan2d haha no worries the stapler situation has been upgraded since this video 😆 thanks for watching!

I usually use Photoshop with the 'multiply' feature set to try and preview how the colors look a little more clearly. It won't be perfect but it will give you a good idea of how colors will mix. There is also a program you can download called Spectrolite that helps visualize different ink colors.

I'm sorry you don't have one near you! I hope you can try one in the near future, or maybe during your travels. The first time I ever tried riso was on a trip to Japan in 2016!

@KelBelter Thank you. I'm trying to mimic the riso effect in Ps and then print it with my regular inkjet printer. A rentable studio for all artists who need it is such a good idea. I hope more cities will implement this.

thanks so much!

@@KelBelter :>

working on a little vlog as we speak! thank you!

Yeah, definitely! It's fun just experimenting and seeing what works/doesn't. Learn something new every attempt!

Noted for next time! ☺️ thanks for watching

The Nitoms 365 notebook is similar and it’s available on Amazon! They have it in a5 and a6 sizes and they are around $14 for the a6 size (which is the size of my notebook!) The Nitoms is also Japanese and has a nice design but is a little simpler so still perfect for this type of project!

Also if you want to search around a bit for other options, ‘365 notebook’ seems like a useful search term for other similar products and you can browse the designs that you like best :-)

@@KelBelter thank you very much for your reply! I’m gonna get one to start and one to use for next year!

300gsm card seems to be the limit in my experience! At that point, you have to be a little more careful when printing to avoid paper jams.

I did recently, using a laser to engrave my silkscreens! Will definitely do some more home printing videos soon ☺️ let me know what you’d like me to show during the next one and I’ll try to include it!

Yes, you can reuse the same screen after washing it. The set comes with multiple frames, so you can reuse screens without removing them from the frame, making it easier to print in different colors. The registration will stay the same as long as you keep the screen inside the frame. However, if you remove the screen from the frame, it might affect the registration. When putting it back, you'll need to check the alignment. Hope that helps!

​@@KelBelter Hmm...not removing from the frame could be costly in the long run, not to mention storage concerns if I have 20+ frames. Yes, multi-colour jobs will require realignment. However, for one colour jobs, the ability to remove and reinsert screens into the frame is actually quite handy and space saving. I can imagine a drawer full of flat screens to be pulled out when an order comes in. Thanks for your reply. I just stumbled onto your channel and love it. Greetings from Canada.

I agree, I wouldn’t want to keep so many frames! That would definitely take up quite a bit of space. I think if I wanted to reuse the same screens for multi-color prints, I would be ok with registering the frame again, like we do with regular screen printing frames anyway. This takes away from some of the benefit of the system, but maybe not too time-costly if you are printing several items at once. Or I wonder how effective drawing with sharpie on top of the emulsion could be for marking where to re-insert the screen into the frame? Could be worth testing out, so maybe I can try that and report back :-) Thanks for watching! Appreciate the question and ideas to experiment with this frame/screen system a bit more.

@@KelBelter Love that idea with the sharpie. It's simple low way to get it close enough and then use the micro-adjustment knobs to fine tune registration. My bigger challenge has more to do with the laser. It seems a bit overkill method to get simple graphics onto a screen (I know you mentioned experimenting with more complex designs). One could simply use a Cricut, vinyl and transfer tape if you wanted to avoid fumes, emulsion/exposure etc... That said, I'm still enamoured by the design aesthetic of the press. It would be perfect for my small home studio (like yours). I'd just have to get a laser engraver too. Have fun experimenting with it and please do share future tips. Cheers.

Thank you! 😊

I hope you enjoy using yours too! And I should maybe record a little more of my curating process, but the dots for these ones were to mark a climbing related project and also another print/zine project where I’m looking for illustrations that work on 1.5x1.5 inch scale 😊

@@KelBelter Oh, that is such a good system!

That’s awesome~ It’ll be so fun to look back on all the drawings at the end of the year, which is actually coming so soon!

@@Haileyyyoung 와!! 영상을 봐서 고마워요 🥹 너무 착한 말 받아서 감동했어요. 💓

I’m so glad it came up at the right time! I guess in those school days drawing felt playful and informal, which helped so much. So nice to bring that back a little bit 💓

Of course! Thanks so much for watching and happy there were some little ideas you connected with!

Yes! Well, I flood lightly, just enough to keep the screen wet so the ink doesn’t dry out. I don’t put a lot of pressure on it!

thank you for the lovely compliment! many more zine videos to come~
