looking for a good wraping course to go on?

[Chris Stansfield]

The course that Grafityp run is a good one, not that i have been on any others mind you.

run by professional ‘wrappers’ that do it for a living and i actually learnt something, might have been stuff you already know, but never to old or young to learn.

rang grafityp today £510 the course 2days.
is that the one youve been on?

ive also hear wasall college run a course witch is pretty good has anyone been on that if so what do you think?

[Robert Lambie]

grafityp is a good one as has been said…
the cost of these courses may seem steep but you are getting two full days of experience with professionals. how much trial and error, waste of materials, time etc would that cost to gain this knowledge?

[Peter Normington]

Scott,
up to four peeps can attend the grafityp course for the same fee, so it works out a bargain.

some UKSG members have grouped together and booked several courses, and I think more courses may be available as others have expressed an interest.
it may be worth upgrading to full membership, cant guarantee it, but worth it anyway

I just finished the two day MacTac course here in Australia and it was an awesome help. It’s a bit cheaper then what you guys pay up there but I probably used the cost of the course in materials alone.

The good thing about the course we did although it was run by MacTac it wasn’t a product endorsement. The trainer owns his own company in Germany and uses different brands in his work. We also got a good theoretical background into vinyls which dispelled a lot of the preconceived ideas I already had. Further more all this theory was backed up with practical training sessions where we got to take a hands on approach.

Once I got our design done I will be posting our work. It will be our first full digitally printed wrap.

we attended the grafityp course and it was charged on a per person basis, 3 of us went and was about 800 squid i think.

but, i felt we got value for money after the course

[Scott.Evans]

pete ill try that as it could work out a lot cheaper. they never told me that 4 could come for that price mind.
iam of tomorrow to wasall to do a course on sign lab so that should get me better on sign lab. ive had the program a few months now but would like to get better at me designing.
iam quite good with adobe so i can’t wait to start wraping!!

could anyone tell me where they recommend me geting my are work printed out?
ive heard there are places where they specialist in just printing for wrapers ect

thanks

[Peter Normington]

Scott.
there are quite a few on the boards that would be happy to do the print for you, again though i think you need uksg membership to ask for quotes, though,

We did the Grafityp Course – it was brilliant – but we paid on a per person basis too though around the costs you mention – they do a 3 day course too but I reckon (personally) 2 is enough!
