May 2012: Prints
- Prints plus Project:
As a trial run, I’m working on a disc of a couple of photos; one portrait, one nature picture, to print and see how I like the quality. As I wrote before on Facebook, I’ve never done this, but I don’t think I’ll be interested in much more than attempting to sell standard prints for now.
I have one other print idea that I think could be really fun to put together but for now it seems it’ll be a lot more involved than I can immediately manage. Also, I’ll need to make 12 (plus front & back image) additional pictures for it to work out like I’ve imagined. A fun yet provocative, dark-nature themed calendar with a fall ‘all-year-round’ feel. Other than the crazy-cat-calendar-mall-lady feeling looming over me as I try to imagine actually doing this—and it not turning out like a Where’s Waldo of scantily clad cheesecake cat poses filled with random things like barren, ill-sprouted weeds and furry crack growths, I’ve ultimately no idea how this’ll even work out if pulled off. Before my brain bursts with any more brilliant ideas, the actual calendar will likely be more mini-sized than regular wall-sized seeing how this might be too expensive to even consider before, when and if, I make anything from prints to pull this off.
I hope it works out though because the idea of working on new, themed pictures to go toward a much larger project like this truly sounds exciting. And as of this very moment those are my only print plans. I’ll be lucky to afford to pull them all off.
I’ve virtually no idea what this is going to come out looking like. A bit of a leap of faith. As far as pricing goes, possible print requests(?), a print section for my website or something like it, and so on, I’ll need to figure things out as I go.
Any thoughts / tips appreciated.
