Last January this short documentary was featured on this very blog!
Way back in 2013, we met Greg, a friend of Catherine, at the first Independent Label Market we did in the July. He spoke of their plans to create a piece to commemorate Stephen’s family’s long running involvement in the process of die stamping and to raise awareness of his trade as it moves into it’s fourth generation. Greg, Catherine and other close friends worked together to create this fantastic piece, which appeared on the ELP blog just after it’s release last year. Later in the year the film was nominated for a short film award and ended up being screened at BAFTA! The film is beautifully made and shows the true charm of the process and the equipment.
On Tuesday 21st July, father and daughter team Stephen and Catherine Perrott will be joining us to discuss the traditional printing techniques that their family have used for four generations.
Small world eh!
You can see more about Perrott and the upcoming talk here
We hope you can make it along to the talk next Tuesday - it’s free after all!
