This is the best 25 mins I've spent on learning something this week. A lot of work went into this, very cohesive. Well done.

Thank you from Mexico! This is great information.

What an excellent and informative video - thank you. You are a real perfectionist! I've picked up lots of tips and ideas that we don't use in our studio, and will take them back with me.

Thank you Bret Reinbold, what a star!

Simply loved this video

i'm watching this so intently and at 12:21 when he said check it every 15 min I looked at my watch to check the time 😂

Great demonstration and tutorial. No fluff and to the point! Appreciated...

Thank you this excellent explanation. We went to a Richard Mayhew exhibit yesterday and one of the pieces was a hand-drawn photo etching. We had never heard of this process.

Thank you so thorough and your own art is at a high level.

Thank you so much!! I teach and this demo was exactly what i needed. Great stuff!

Well done, thank you for this excellent demo.

Thank you for making this film, very informative.

Very illumination and interesting. Thanks you for taking the time to put this together.

You are such a wonderful teacher...

Excellent. So calm and reassuring. I feel I could now confidently attempt making a Photo Intaglio Print.

Nice

THAT WAS AWESOME. THANKS AGAIN

Excellent video. Thanks..!

Very nice demo....Thanks!

Thank you so much for this!

Thank you!

It is really awesome 25min. Can I do the aquatint on the plate after exposing?

My teacher sure didn't look like you, and they sure didn't teach like you.... It's a new world of wonder to old eyes.

no Aquatint (etched, or UVexposed) necessary?!

nice video. I was wondering why you choose not to first do an aquatic tint screen exposure then do the positive transparency? Also, is the ferric chloride straight or has it been diluted w water?

Lots of work, a long process, but beautiful.

To me, intaglio printmaking (drawn by the artist, not photo process!) is the most wonderful and exciting medium available to artists, right next to drawing and painting. Etching is in fact my speciality, and I keep discovering more museums and important collections that have acquired my prints. However, I find that this demonstration is so dull and lackluster that I cannot imagine this inspiring anyone to desire to learn the process. I realize that most comments are glowing and positive, but I just call it as I see it.

Hey! How do I prepare (difficult to hear what is said) the copper-plate before coating it with «Image-on»-acetate? And what acid is in use when etching? Any non-cheamical method for etching copper - all water-based? Any on-line shop getting it all? Brand-name for all the remedy? Thank you for answering!

Hello Stefanie Dittmann, usually Artists use "Buchbindergaze" for cleaning, some use sheets of Newspaper...

Greetings from Vancouver! Do you guys have a press in the dark room? You'd have to expose the film to light while adhering it to the plate if not, right? Is the light sensitivity of the film similar to photopolymer plates (e.g. we use Eagle POS-1 plates from Takach at UBC PRC), which allows for some light exposure? Awesome vid btw, much appreciated!

Would someone tell where to order Imagon polymer film in Canada

Came to this hoping to find a gelatin free process. Disappointed to hear it is gelatin. Is there an animal free way to do it? Looks like a cool process.

Nice video!! After developing, this means there’s a layer of resist that remains before etching. Don’t you need to remove the resist after etching? How is this done?

@12:40 it's mentioned that the ImagOn film is removed, but not how?

Is there any aquatint used here? Either aquatint screen or rosin?

Can zinc be used instead of copper ?

Attention to detail and no doubts about that. It would be nice to condense the video without worrying that the viewers will miss something. I didn't watch the whole video as I have been into screen printing and this would oversaturate my mind. Surely, those involved with this printing method will not be disappointed Good luck!

Is Ulano circuit board film close to the same as your product?

"toileton"??? How do you spell this word (cleaning fabric after putting the ink on the plate? Does anyone know what it is called in German?

...it will create just enough HEAT"... (with the press)... is it a press or a heated press? I didn´t understand!!! (Enlish is not my mother tongue)

rammstein intaglio

Seems pretty straightforward lol

Miss Remus liner and silly tattoos are too distracting
