Step 2 of 3 · Artwork
You Passed Step 1!
You’ve made it to the next level. At SHIRT52, we believe that creativity isn’t just about having ideas; it’s about making those ideas come to life. This step is your chance to shine and show us what makes you unique.
Watch These First
Follow the standard operating procedures and the walkthroughs below exactly — that is what we are assessing.
Task 1 — Vectorize Pixelized Logo
Sometimes our customers give us some really bad art. They just don't know any better. It is our job to recreate the art the way they envision it. Vectorize the SHIRT52 logo so we start with the best quality artwork.
Please follow the Standard Operating Procedure to make sure the art is vectorized to SHIRT52 standards.
Task 2 — Mock Up with Vector Logo
Now it’s time to show the customer what it will look like on a t-shirt. Use the short sleeve template to generate a digital mockup with the image on the left chest at a standard size. Our customer would like a red t-shirt.
Task 3 — Separations for Screen Printing
Now it’s time to go into production. Use the Exile template to generate color separations for screen printing.
Colors we need will be white under base (WUB), grey and black. Since it is going on a red shirt, we will use the shirt color for the red part of the design. No white under base ink goes under black ink — we never under base black ink. We will not print red ink.
