We really love the final result and are really proud of it. I suggested that it would be really cool to do promotional photos of our books nearer the time of MCM, with the laser cut logo lit up with fairy lights in the background.

Laser Cutting
One of the new skills our group utilised this semester was the use of laser cutter for promotional purposes. We were first of all given instruction on how to set up a document to ensure that our image (which we chose to be our Comic Nest logo) would cut out successfully and not fall apart.
We then 'printed' our design on semi-thin wood, using the large laser cutter provided by the university. We were taught which settings to use and how this varies based on the design and the material chosen.
