How things are made, how they came to be, the origins of stuff. I’ve been fascinated for years and will no doubt remain fascinated and intrigued right up to the day I die.
How Ink is Made is a video that shows me just that, how ink is made. Watch, learn, enjoy, share. This is gorgeous.
A Chief Ink Maker shows how colour and ink is created from the raw ingredients–powder, varnish, and passion. Everything designers and printers need to know about the process, the challenges and joy of ink making.
Presented by Peter Welfare, president and head inkmaker, The Printing Ink Company.
