DTF for Creativity

Help me give my students a new way to display their art and creativity.

My Project

I want to introduce my students to Direct To Film printing.

The printer will be used by students in my Creative Writing and Art class as a Direct To Film printer.

Direct to Film is used in the fashion industry. This will give my students a look into other career fields besides fast food, construction, medical, engineering, etc. I want to show them a method of designing textiles to display their artwork and creativity. I haven't created any Direct To Film prints myself, so we will be learning together. With creativity, trial and error is fine.
