Hello again everyone and welcome to another session of the Damascus Weekly Media Music Interview! Now I know what you’re thinking right now…
“But Jarrad, you haven’t posted in almost 2 weeks! How is this weekly?”
The answer is simple. Bus pass. Of course I’m kidding, so don’t worry. All the missing interviews will be added! With Damascus Media growing at such a rapid pace, the blog took a back seat for a few weeks. So of course, there will be some big news in the coming weeks for Damascus Media! I digress however, onto the real story! Read more »

Creating and adapting designs for print. Pt 2
This is part two of the “Creating and Adapting Designs for Print” tutorial. Part one focused on finding the right imagery, font, and getting the basic elements of the image completed. Part two will focus on finishing the image and preparing it for the screens to print onto the shirt.
Choosing the right custom shirt for your organization matters.
The introductory focus when it comes to choosing anything in this world properly, is first identifying the reason why you are making the purchase in the first place. In the case of a Student Organization, the president is making the purchase of custom apparel to publicly represent their organization, build moral throughout the organization community, and improve the quality of the event, gathering or meeting. It’s amazing how connected a group of people feel towards each other when they are all simply wearing the same apparel. Football teams, business floors, jack in the box employees, construction workers, police officers, festival security, tennis clubs, you name it, all wear coordinated uniforms to be visually synchronized.

Creating and adapting designs for print. Pt 1
So you have an awesome design that you know would look sick on a shirt? There is a lot more preparation work than you may think. We receive everything from pencil sketches to full 300dpi print-ready files. Most of our clients do not have access to editing programs, so we need to be able to adapt their vision into a printable design. In this article you will find some of the tips and tricks we use, as well as a tutorial to create a print-ready design.
The real truth about starting a t-shirt company – An intro pt. 1
As you all already know, the online clothing industry is growing at rapid speed. Everyone has a creative side and has their own view of “what is cool”, “what people will like”, or “this will totally sell”, but the truth is, nothing will ever sell unless you have timing, commitment, and real experience. With so many online tshirt brands appearing out of thin air daily, it takes not only an “out of the ordinary” design or illustration, but a deep un-flooded target market, vast knowledge of your available product + the competitions, an entrepreneurial mind set, an open non restricted view to adapt, and a hunger to never stop learning.
New Website!
We are currently in the process of updating and redesigning our entire website! We want to create a more stream-lined and user-friendly experience. The easier it is for our clients to get the awesome apparel they are looking for, the better.
Check everything out and if you have any feedback, we would love to hear it! Our contact form is located in the drop down menu under the Home link.
