Two-Day Workshop: Making a Mock-Up with Matthew Austin
Two-Day Workshop: Making a Mock-Up Time: Saturday + Sunday, 10 am – 5 pm (PST) one hour lunch break around noon (lunch is covered by course fee). Instructor: Matthew AustinWhere: 2012 Stoner Ave, Unit B, Los Angeles, CA 90025 5 students maximum This course is designed for those interested in books but does not require students to have extensive experience in books. If you happen to have lots of experience in books, all the better. While students are encouraged to bring their own favorite hand tools, we will utilize the studio resources to their capacity to serve the student’s creative projects and visions. This may include: inkjet printing, digital offset printing, foil stamping, sewing, board cutting, paper trimming, perfect binding, vacuum feed folding, hand-bookbinding techniques, and more. By producing a mock-up in this course, students will learn the structure of a book, the materials, tools, and equipment used in book production, and how to best design for such methods thro
