What I've Learned So Far

  

1)Ive learned that basically dye sublimation, it gets the ink of the design an instead of painting it on top of the shirt which will eventuall crack an fade, it shoots the ink into the shirt. so it will never crack, fade, an it give the shirt a super soft feel, the ink feels like its the shirt itself.


2) I personaly dont know how to do it but i informed on it and i might be printing my next batch of shirts using this method. 


3) I was researching on different types of printing and what would be better and looks better and i liked this one because ive seen some that obey has done and there really nice and good quality.

Defining the Essential Question

(1) What is most important to being a successful entrepreneur in the clothing industry?(2) "what is most immportant to being a successful" is like the best path or things you can do that will help you. By "entrepreneur" i mean the owner/seller and by "clothing industry" i mean clothing line.
(3) Connections, hard work, good designs, and promotion.
(4) I tend to look at the past of other big companys, I look up too like obey ,the hundreds, stuff like that to see what they did and if they made any mistakes that way i know what to do and what not to do. My most important source would be shepard fairey and the history on how he made OBEY because it made me think and gave me a lot of ideas, also made me realize promoting is really important.
