HEy Carolita- I assume you're referring to the flat color + linework style. This was accomplished by 'cutting films'. One would overlay one's artwoek with a translucent film and cut out the shape to make a plate for the printer. The film would then be tagged with a spec'd color i.e.: "100% PMS 210". Quite simple in these instances, much more difficult when dealing with several overlapping, butting, or overlayed colors.
These are wonderful!
ReplyDeletevery inspirational. thanks
ReplyDeleteI know this sounds dumb, but what is that technique called? How did they do this before photoshop? I've always wondered!
