Miami’s finest philanthropists, business leaders and legal minds gather at The Blacks’ Annual Gala benefiting The Consequences Charity and Foundation every year for world-class entertainment, a five-star dining experience, shopping, auctions and more to benefit at-risk youth. “It’s the people that make the party”, according to Founder Lea Black who has amassed a group of supporters that are unparalleled in their generosity, accomplishment and celebrity.  She and her husband Roy host the “creative black tie” endeavor each year, officiating over an evening to remember that is often considered “over the top” and extremely successful in it’s ability to raise money for children in need.

Sponsors for the event included:

Grey Goose Vodka
The Collection
Haute Living Magazine
David Yurman
Ocean Drive Magazine
and many many more.

This year Executive Printers of Florida had the honored task of providing a 24′ x 8′ step and repeat wall for the red carpet event.  Preparations began last week with an original request for a 12′ x 8′ step and repeat wall which was produced and ready for the event.  Then at the eleventh hour we received a call from one of the events promoters stating they have received triple the press and needed to double the order.  We needed to produce a 24′ x 8′ step and repeat wall complete with all the hardware in less than 6 hours.  A few phone calls later and our special response team was in the building on a Saturday morning running the presses and producing the super sized media wall.  Upon completion our team delivered the media wall to the Fountainbleau Hotel on Miami beach.  We were on stand by on location until another event concluded at 5:30pm.  The Gala begins at 6:30pm which only allowed us one hour to erect a 24′ x 8′ step and repeat media wall.  It was a bit of a challenge but it was completed by 6:30pm just in time for the photogs to shoot all the glamorous people in their fabulous evening wear.

We want to give special thanks to Lea, Kim, Andrea, Jason, Teresa and all the people involved in making Leah Blacks’ Annual Gala a complete success!

3 or 4?

Depending on whether you work predominantly in web or print your answer might be 3 or 4. Red, green and blue or Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black.

Why 3 or 4?

Well you might have said 3 colours because Red, green and blue are the (additive) primary colours that are output through your TV, mobile and computer monitor. When added and mixed together these primary colours can produce a whole sub-set of different colours, including white in the right intensity.

But then again, you might have gone for 4 colours, particularly if you are a graphic designer primarily producing print work. Colour printers use cyan, magenta, yellow and black to produce countless secondary colours through a range of different printing techniques: halftone, pantone etc.

RGB or CMYK both produce a sub-set of colours but at their core are made up from 3 or 4 colours.

216 or 256?

If you’re saving as a GIF or a PNG or creating something for screen you might say 216 or 256 web-safe colours.

Why 216 or 256?

You might have started off saying 256 as this is the number of colours in monitors of the time. A 256 colour display. When saving as a GIF you have the option to save with 256 colours, as a GIF is palette based. If you wanted to reduce your file size of your GIF further you might start to reduce the colours used in the palette while trying to retain the quality of the final image. As the web continues to evolve and Internet speeds keep increasing, file sizes of images will become less of an issue, meaning that you can keep your 256 colours in your GIF.

You might also say 216 as while there are 256 colours in the web-safe palette, operating systems reserved some of the colours for their own use resulting in 216. This number is also easily divisible by 6 and so allows for 6 different shades of red, green and blue to create one colour. These 6 different shades, or hexadecimal, can be used in HTML either through the hex code or through the different RGB values.

Too many to count?

With all the advances in technology we’re moved on from the initial ‘web-safe’ colours and we’re now enjoying far more colourful days in front of our screens, 16 million colours to be precise. 16384 of which most modern monitors are capable of displaying according to the w3c: www.w3schools.com/html/html_colors

Lynda.com summaries the issue of why web-safe colours were first introduced succiently and is credited as creating the web-safe palette. It’s still an interesting and useful read today: www.lynda.com/resources/webpalette

Does it matter?

Well in a nutshell, yes. With some caveats of course!

If you’re designing for screen, colour, and more specifically colour contrast, can play a huge part in making text accessible to people with visual impairments. Your audience might also be based somewhere without our technological advances and be using a basic monitor and browser and using a colour outside of the web-safe 256 might affect your content/design.

If you’re designing for print using black, how do you make sure that you are using black? While all blacks look the same on screen there can be noticeable differences when printing resulting in a different result than expected: www.printernational.org/rich-black-plain-black.

Interestingly while the number of web colours have increased from the initial web-safe palette, the number of print colours have remained the same since the introduction of the modern process. Although Pantone introduced their Hexachrome system, within recent years, adding orange and green to turn CMYK into CMYKOG.

It’s a colourful life

At the end of the day it’s a colourful life and there are plenty of resources out there to make life easier for us such as: www.colorsontheweb.com. But it’s important to use colour wisely, it’s easy to get carried away with an entire rainbow at the end of your mouse but keeping it simple will help focus a user’s attention and not overwhelm or distract from what you really want them to focus on, whether it’s a link, email address or text.

How many colours would you say there are? Is it possible to provide a definite answer? Or does it depend on how, or what, you are creating?

Acrylic photo framed prints are becoming hugely popular and are finding their way into homes up and down the country. 5 Years ago acrylic framed prints would have only been seen in top New york and London Penthouses but now they are becoming an everyday feature in homes up and down the country. Acrylic frames are now a very popular and affordable way of framing photos and artwork.

So what makes an acrylic framed print? There are a number of different framing methods with acrylic photo frames. The majority of acrylic frames are traditionally held to the wall with contemporary wall fixings usually called standoffs. The standoffs are usually chrome colored, Matt silver or even gold although they can come in a number of metallic colored finishes.

Acrylic printing is the most expensive style of acrylic photo frame, this is where the print or image is printed directly onto the acrylic. This method is done with very expensive printers which use white ink to print directly onto the plastic. When this method is used usually the image is printed onto a single 10mm panel which is then fixed to the wall with standoffs.

The print is then face mounted onto the panel with a sheet of face mounting clear sheet. The sheet has a plastic film on both sides which is peeled back, the sticky side is then stuck to the print and then stuck directly onto the acrylic panel. The sticky sheet is usually applied to the image with a mounted roller laminator to ensure that air bubbles to do not arise between the sticky sheet and the acrylic. This style of framing is usually applied to either 10mm panel or 5mm panels for a cheaper option.

The image is usually centered in the middle of the frame which allows the back panel acrylic to be shown. The back panel of the acrylic in this style can either be Clear, Black, White or any other color.

The advantage of this style of framing method is that it is affordable to create and therefore has created a huge rise in the sales of acrylic frames. Another advantage of acrylic sandwich panel frames is that the image can easily be changed as it is not fixed directly onto the panels.

We are Executive Printers of Florida and we create highly affordable classy acrylic panel frames. The method of framing that we use is the face mounting and acrylic sandwich frame. Our acrylic frames are extremely high quality and highly affordable. For more information on face mounting and acrylic sandwich frames please contact us at 305-887-4333.
