Project Overview
When the Government of Kenya sought a printing partner capable of delivering a premium-quality national yearbook, Taco Visions was entrusted with one of the most prestigious publication projects in its history.
The project involved producing a 1,150-page hardbound publication containing a vast collection of historical records, government information, photographs, and national achievements. Beyond printing, the project required extensive image enhancement, colour correction, quality control, and a visually striking presentation that reflected the importance of the publication.
To make the yearbook truly distinctive, Taco Visions incorporated a custom 3D lenticular portrait of the President on the cover, creating a memorable visual experience that distinguished the publication from conventional government books.
The Challenge
- Processing and preparing over 1,150 pages of content.
- Restoring and colour-correcting hundreds of images from various sources.
- Maintaining consistency across a large publication.
- Managing high-volume production of 15,000 copies.
- Delivering a publication that matched international printing standards.
- Creating a premium visual identity suitable for a national government publication.
The Solution
Taco Visions developed a comprehensive production workflow that addressed both technical and creative requirements.
Our team meticulously reviewed and enhanced the image assets, ensuring visual consistency throughout the publication. Advanced colour management processes were implemented to maintain accuracy from pre-press through final production.
To elevate the presentation, we proposed a custom 3D lenticular cover featuring the President’s portrait. This innovative addition transformed the publication from a traditional government document into a visually engaging showcase piece.
The final solution combined premium hardbound binding, precise print production, and lenticular innovation to create a publication worthy of national recognition.
Execution Process
Content Preparation: Thousands of images and pages were reviewed, corrected, and optimized for print production.
Image Enhancement: Colour correction, retouching, and quality improvements were carried out to ensure consistent visual standards throughout the publication.
Pre-Press Management: Extensive proofing and quality checks were conducted to maintain colour accuracy and print consistency.
Lenticular Cover Development: A custom 3D lenticular cover was designed and produced to create a premium first impression while showcasing Taco Visions’ expertise in specialty printing.
Production & Binding: The 1,150-page publication was printed, assembled, and hardbound using rigorous quality standards suitable for international distribution.
