Laser cutting

 

First, I had to trace my illustrations I created of the audience. And turn them into vectors. The tracing needed to be 0.03mm in stroke. And I made the illustrations red so the laser cutter knows where to cut. 

As you can tell, for paper the laser stroke needs to be incredibly thin. When taking the paper out of the laser cutter, I realised that some line were too close together which made some of the figures flimsy. 

Here's some photos showing the process with the laser cutter: 

Final Outcome of the audience

I think a few of these could be too big. However, overall they fit in a sequence together. I enjoyed using this process as the lines are sharp and so much better than if I tried doing it with a scalpel. All that needs to be done now is the screen printing and attaching these together.
