As the list above suggests this sessions was mainly concerned with the output of your work. Not just printing, but also displaying using modern methods we have available at the moment (e.g. display monitors). Getting you colour correct and as intended was the focus of the session that included quite technical detail on ‘gamut’ and ‘gamma’ (wow). This is one of those lessons you need to do than just be told what it’s about.
A superb section if you’re thinking on buying a printer or the likes, you’ll be better informed and you’ll have the ability to really baffle the sales clerk!
At about this time, I’m thinking I should be working towards the final submittal ECA panel. Reading ahead I know there’s a write-up to go with the panel so I think starting early is prudent. These sessions are based on a week at a time (generally) but as each differs it’s all too easy to just leave for the following week.
