Chronologies Print

Printing is an interesting form of Illustration, that generally varies in style depending what method is used. It's interesting to see how many devices and materials are used to take advantage of this concept, like sculpting graphite into letters or pictures then printing them onto a canvas. It's interesting because these devices and other methods of print are purely experimental, so there's a chance that the chosen method of print could turn out to be a failure. Today's techniques are normally used for poster art and graphic design used mainly for advertising, with popular examples being the Andre The Giant posters, and the Obama Hope campaigns. I think printing is a great form of illustration, and the varying styles can be applied to very well to animation, if you consider the illustrations and animated title sequences by Saul Bass.
