Summary:

Since the original images are low-key black and white film, and the model is on the black background, we suggested that the client print the calendar on black paper with white ink. This will show the power of Fuji Xerox Iridesse white ink. We inverted the images to negative and used only white ink applied to the images. We applied colour on some text on the calendar. Our client really appreciated the results.

“The winner was successful in challenging the boundaries of calendar printing by making the bold move to print white digitally onto black, and it really works on this job.”
