The Digital Capture process begins when the original artwork or document is photographed using specially designed and calibrated camera equipment to create a precise high-resolution digital image, suitable for printing on various media. This initial step is vital for achieving a perfect reproduction. Before any printing can occur, the artwork must be captured and converted into a digital format. This process is essential for ensuring image detail and color accuracy, ultimately influencing the quality of the final print.

color accuracy

Creating a color-accurate image from capture to print demands precision. It necessitates the flawless alignment of various components and systems. Our expertise has guided us in designing a studio customized to capture every color and detail of each artwork. The facility includes two blacked-out capture stations, enabling us to photograph art both vertically and horizontally, equipped with cutting-edge pixel-shift and multi-shot technology, along with color-corrected lighting to ensure an ideal environment for accurate art capture.

After capturing the artwork, the image is printed and carefully refined through a series of proof prints to ensure the color depths, contrast, and white balance align with the original piece. Once finalized, the digital files are delivered on a flash drive or CD, accompanied by the final proof print for the artist's review and approval.
