XU TAI YU IS A DREAMBOAT.I draw inspiration from all things ASIAN.
Naturally, I have to tribute my very first layout to the movie, Our Times （我的少女时代）and its iconic quote from the main character, 徐太宇，“麻酱面，麻酱和面要分开”。In translation, he always asks the female character to buy him Sesame Noodles and he has a quirk to eat them separately, so the female character needs to request for the noodles and the sesame sauce to be served separately by the canteen aunty.

(Mahjong Tiles because Sesame Sauce 麻酱 and Mahjong 麻将, are synonyms) While cropping these two elements into the main dish,I’ve managed to execute this layout. THIS ALSO LEADS US TO OUR ACTUAL SCREEN PRINTING PROCESS.

(these first two photos shoutout to Charmaine :))

After adding a layer of blue emulsion, I proceed to cure my screen for 16s instead of 18s (as advised by my lecturer, the more intricate the details, the shorter the curing time to capture them more clearly).

After that, we straight up used this powerful jet to “clean” the blue emulsion off. THE REST IS EPIC FUN.
