How Blade Runner's Badge Was Made!

One of the artifacts uncovered at the Earl Hays Press is the original print blocks for Deckard's police badge in Blade Runner! Adam couldn't resist the opportunity to get this block back in a printing press to perfectly recreate this iconic hand prop exactly as it was made for the film--using the same tools that were originally used to make it!

I dont think ive ever seen Adam get this emotional about making a prop replica. Watching Adam getting to work with people who care as much about authenticity as he does is a real treat.

[@MonsieurAuContraire]

At this point do we call it a replica? At least to me this is a sibling to the original props as it comes from the same provenance.

[@Merennulli]

​@@MonsieurAuContraireIt's still replication based on the original, just with the original equipment for part of it. It's not that far removed from how some prop companies sell prop replicas using the original molds.

And in end when I saw finished badge , I felt this kind of envy , just a fantastic one video! For me its the most special one.

I'd be flabbergasted if I found an untouched roll of Amberlith. Amazingly enough when Adam picked up the tube I felt the heft of a full roll of it in the back of my mind, I had the precise synesthetic feel from way back in the early 1990's when I was an intern at the graphic department of the Navy Museum in DC. Man I miss the old analog days…

The size of those corner cutter machines compared to how much cutting they're actually doing is absolutely ridiculous. I love it!

[@robertkoestner8081]

They will round the corners of a stack of paper two inches thick. It's a production machine that they are using far below its capacity.

[@peevester9987]

It's made to do a whole bunch of pages at once! Hopefully they baby it, because it's going to be impossible to find dies for it. My paper cutter has a corner nipper on it, which makes a nice rounded edge, and is great for laminated things. Generally I only nip away the laminate, I think from now on I'm going to do it to the papers before I put them in the pocket too, because wow that looks nice.

[@jb31969]

For anyone that doesn't have access to Rubylith or Amberlith, you can approximate it with translucent vinyl. It won't have the light blocking properties but it will look almost identical. Sign shops will often have some, you can also see if they will print a custom color for you on IJ8150 which is a clear vinyl.

[@ckm-mkc]

They still make Rubylith - a company called Ulano makes it and you can still buy it. Also, 3M makes some equivalent films.

[@gerrygoodlow3322]

Wow..Rubylith... That takes me waaayyy back to the 80's and making masks for my circuits to be printed and mounted on ceramic.

It's not only interesting to see these things in action to learn how they work, I also think it's so important to make a record of these kinds of historic processes, lest we forget how to make things in different ways, without the need for computers.

[@sarowie]

interesting point of view - to some extend, they are using up historical artefacts, on the other hand, they make the best use of them by documenting everything they know. And the whole documentation adds value to the artifacts: if you display them now in a museum with the video, it has meaning and thus value.

too bad the record is on a computer though

Yep, the proofreader was on vacation that day, either physically or mentally lol.

[@3ATIVE]

@@DwellerBenthos LOL

[@andrewbloom7694]

​@DwellerBenthos Was it like that in the movie too?

[@mglenadel]

The yellow is a little bit bigger around so there's no paper white showing if the colors are slightly misaligned when printing. That's called 'trapping' and it is relatively simple to do in analog line art with an overexposed original slightly out of focus. The real problem was to do it when things began to become digital (we used computers and laser imagesetters-think of a laser printer that uses the laser to expose offset printing film-to create the offset plates from film). By about mid-1990's we had to create all the trapping digitally, at first by adding outlines to the elements in Adobe Illustrator (yes, it is THAT old) in colors that would print in both plates. In this case, we would create a color that was 100% black and 100% yellow on the outside of the yellow part. It was a nightmare to thing through what color would go 'under' which other color (darker colors would keep the same, but lighter colors should grow towards the darker ones) and by how much (it depended on several things, from the size of the piece-larger prints could shift and swell up, so we'd need wider trapping lines near the edges-to the type of paper-newsprint would stretch and shift during a run, so you'd need even wider trapping lines-to the process of printing-offset is more stable, silkscreening shifts A LOT, especially for big things). Man I miss the old early digital days…

[@shable1436]

Not only that, but the printer pressure could push the rubber stamp and caused spreading. I remember learning all the nuances of how each feel goes from abdick presses while in print classes, and working in a print shop. The memories that this episode causes is crazy, I'm sure you know what I'm saying

[@kimaboe]

@@shable1436 Pretty sure that is a magnesium plate, or it might be an engraving, either way it is rock solid and the press isn't compressing it like it would a rubber stamp. :)

[@shable1436]

@@kimaboe there is rubber on some rollers, but if you know about offset printing then why argue? For one they aren't magnesium, that's too expensive, but gravure, aluminum, or something handmade by a specific font specialists has made. The rubber sometimes is put on backplate and not on front, there's many ways to do things and keep the electrons from building up

[@kimaboe]

@@shable1436 Sure, but the press in the video isn't an offset press, even though Adam uses the word a few times to refer to the type of printing they do here (I'm assuming they do in fact run tons of offset work, just not in this specific instance). This press is a simple relief proof press, with a single steel impression roller. The paper being printed is hitting the relief plate directly, the image is not offset onto a rubber roller and then transferred to the paper as in offset lithography. The packing on the roller is just enough to protect the press, but should be so hard that it has zero give under normal operation. So, the trapping in this specific instance is only for registration due to plate positioning and to reduce the need for time consuming makeready, not to account for image "squeeze" as you see with other printing methods. Easy distinction to make for us, since we are familiar with the tech, but nice to be specific for anyone learning from the vid :) And fwiw, magnesium cuts are fairly cheap, I buy them all the time for hot foiling purposes. It would be my first choice for something like this, and you'd get those two plates mailed in a day for about $75. I doubt you'd get an aluminium plate for that same price unless you were doing it inhouse?

[@strawhousepig]

I wanted to mention it was trap, which for something like this would be huge. No one wants to spend time lining up the colors or registering the impressions, especially for something the end customer (the movie audience) is never going to get a good look at. Unless you have tints or halftones you could still burn a fatty on a plate using acetate and frost with film from an imagesetter. Although I do love how easy to do InDesign made it. As someone who still runs an AccuSet 1000, my advice is: Don't miss it too hard. 😅

[@SergeyChernyshev]

I generally don’t care about “antiques” or “authenticity” of objects personally (even though I am a collector myself - in my case, playing cards), but getting an authentic fabrication experience is something I can relate to and seeing Adam being over the moon through this is warming my heart!

[@Francois_L_7933]

Back in the old days when these were made, they probably used a Polaroid Miniportrait ID camera. These have four lenses that can make 4 pictures on the same sheet of film. These cameras used what is called "peel apart" Polaroid film as opposed to the "integral" film that was used on this replication. So the image would have been much thinner and easier to stick down.

Electric typewriters-the daisywheel kind, not the Electric 'ball' kind-had to locate the index (the 'zero position' of the type wheel) before working. If the sensor is wonky, it may very well think it was 'home' when it was in some other position, and yeah, it would type a weird Caesar cipher (characters moved over some number of places) if left unchecked. Good to know that turning it off and on could get it to work properly.
