Episode 19: Streaming live from 12:00pm EST Friday February 25th

Designing and printing packaging for chocolate bars requires specialized knowledge in many areas.

My guest for this session is Marc Laucks of True Leaf, a printing and business services provider, and is aimed at makers who do not have much, if any, experience in graphic design or knowledge of printing practices. The focus will be on developing prototype packaging before a commitment to large print runs makes sense.
