Like I have mentioned before in these blogs. I have learned a lot from my time here at Southeast Tech, especially in my design classes. I have learned how to make magazines, campaigns, how to print, and much more. Some other things that I have learned in my Design Classes that I think are blog-worthy are different miscellaneous things we have learned in our production room making different projects.
In the production room, we learned how to cut, score, and staple. These miscellaneous things have been used in quite a few of our projects and the reputation has helped me to improve and get faster at doing them. They are all pretty self-explanatory but to quickly explain them. Cutting is done by using a machine that cuts off margins and papers apart. This is the only machine-operated one out of all of these. To use it you have to input a number on a keypad of how much you want to cut. Scoring is used with a tool and a ruler. This helps to create a fold line to make folding a paper easier. Stapling is easy but technical. The stapler is also not your normal stapler, you just need to make sure it’s all lined up and that all your pages are correctly together and lined up.
The reason why I wanted to blog about this, is because I was new things that I have learned. I want to mention and document all the things that I have been able to learn in my time here. I think little things like this are also just as important as knowing and learning how to do other things. Honing your skills and being able to be an all-around person is very important, in this industry and for me as a person. I am very proud of myself and I can’t wait to learn even more, even after graduating.
