This was a most difficult commission. The client
wanted it printed A3 size which meant that I had to get it printed
at a commercial print house. Normally most of my work is printed
on my own Epson Sylus at home and I have full control on the output.
With this one, however, I found out the hard way what a difference
there is when you have to get something printed CMYK. Suddenly
all the colours were different to what was on my screen (also
a A4 print from my Epson) to what came out from the print house.
Luckily the firm were very helpful and I got a print which was
very good although I had to change some of the tones in the TIFF
file. These are the things you learn as you progress.
I wanted to make the picture look as if it could
actually happen (in a fairy-tale kind of way) in that the close-ups
would appear on large "live by satellite" type screens
linked by wedding rings etc. Two of the photos were black &
white which were tinted to match the rest of the image. Hard work
but satisfying.
