stencils and silkscreenwe started with choosing 3 campaign ideas , and out of the 3 i chose to do ‘free hot chocolate & tea’,
then we created a template on photoshop, mine was of a tea cup & writing
next we had to print them off, then cut round it with a standing-knife
we then used special paint for t-shirts to put the design on the t-shirt
I think the stencil and the colour comes out better , clearer using silkscreen
