Hi, i'm Tom Maene, a pre-presser at a small company making greetingcards located in Belgium. I'm only in the "business" for 2years now, but eager to learn a lot. Even things I dont need to do at my work (related to pre-press) interests me. I finished school as a Graphical Designer - mostly DTP - i learned to use all the software - but nothing else pre-press related. Here at my work, i'm glad i got the chanse to learn all the rest, like the plates and stuff too. After i finished school i did another 2years of school where i studied Animation (disney-like) - but that didnt turn out to good - i had to stop school. I started to do Webdesign in eveningclasses but barely learned anything new there over those two years.
Right now i tried something different and am studieing musicschool (contrabass) at evenings.
Next to my pre-press daysjob the only thing i do is play bassguitar in a local rock band and spending the night on my comp surfing/playing and wasting my time on the internet.
www.bastom.com is my personal blog.
