Custom size movie posters offer a great way to personalize your space and make your walls come alive. If you’re looking to capture the essence of your favorite films or make your home theater look like the local Megaplex here’s some advantages to custom movie posters:
I’m Erica Gabriel, an expert in custom large format printing with over 20 years of experience in changing digital files into stunning wall art. I’ve guided countless businesses and movie buffs in finding the perfect fit for their custom size movie posters.
Ready to dive deeper into why custom size movie posters are the perfect solution for your wall decor or marketing needs? Let’s explore further.
Custom size movie posters are a game-changer for both personal and professional spaces. Here’s why they matter:
Standard poster sizes like 11″ x 17″ or 24″ x 36″ are great, but sometimes they just don’t fit your space. Custom size movie posters allow you to tailor the dimensions to fit any wall perfectly. Whether you have a small nook or a large expanse, custom sizing ensures a perfect fit. Were you aware that the most common size for movie posters is actually 27″ x 40″? This is the exact dimensions of movie poster frames in cinemas around the country and was standardized in the movie industry over time as studios began promoting their movies on posters.
Imagine having a movie poster that is uniquely yours. Custom dimensions can be custom to reflect your style and preferences. This level of personalization transforms a simple poster into a statement piece that resonates with you or your brand.
For home theatres or living rooms, the right size poster can tie the whole room together. A custom size movie poster can complement your decor, making your space look cohesive and well-thought-out.
One of our clients, a local cinema, opted for custom-sized posters to fit their uniquely shaped lobby walls. The result? Increased foot traffic and customer engagement. The custom posters not only fit perfectly but also improved the overall ambiance of the cinema, making it a more inviting space. Even though 27 x 40 was the standard size, they wanted a variety of custom sizes to make the lobby look more interesting.
In summary, custom size movie posters provide a unique fit, personalized touch, and significant impact, whether for home decor or marketing. Ready to find the perfect size for your needs? Let’s move on to explore the available standard and custom dimensions.
When it comes to movie posters, size really does matter. Whether you’re aiming for a classic look or something more unique, understanding your options can help you make the best choice.
Standard sizes are the go-to for many movie enthusiasts and businesses. They are widely recognized and fit most frames and display areas. Here are some common standard sizes:
Sometimes, standard sizes just don’t cut it. That’s where custom size movie posters come in. Custom dimensions allow you to tailor the poster to fit any space perfectly.
For example, a customer used an 18″ x 24″ custom poster for an office promotion project. They noted, “The images were sharp, the text was clear, the photo quality paper was thick and the turnaround time was quick.” This shows how custom sizes can meet specific needs and exceed expectations.
If you have a unique size in mind, getting a custom quote is easy. Simply provide your desired dimensions, and we’ll give you a custom price. This flexibility ensures you get exactly what you need without compromising on quality or fit.
While you can choose any size, some popular custom dimensions include:
Custom sizes are not just about fitting a space; they’re about making an impact. Whether it’s a unique wall in your home or a promotional area in your business, custom dimensions can turn a regular poster into a focal point.
For instance, a client from a local cinema shared that custom-sized posters for their uniquely shaped lobby walls increased foot traffic and customer engagement. The custom posters fit perfectly and improved the cinema’s ambiance.
In short, custom size movie posters offer versatility and impact, making them a great choice for any setting. Ready to explore materials and finishes? Let’s dive into the next section.
Choosing the right materials and finishes for your custom size movie posters is essential for achieving the desired look and durability. Here’s a breakdown of the options available:
A matte finish provides a smooth, non-reflective surface. It’s perfect for posters intended for well-lit areas since it minimizes glare. This finish is often preferred for fine art reproductions and detailed graphics, as it offers a sophisticated, professional look.
For those who want their posters to pop, a gloss finish is the way to go. This finish improves colors and details, making images look vibrant and eye-catching. Glossy posters are ideal for movie posters and advertisements that need to grab attention.
A semi-gloss finish strikes a balance between matte and gloss. It offers some shine without being overly reflective, making it a versatile choice for various settings. This finish works well for both indoor and outdoor posters, providing durability and a polished appearance.
By far the most common media for movie posters is backlit film – this is what you see movie posters printed on for the illuminated backlit display frames at the cinema and Megaplex. This media looks great when the lights are on and off. So, if you have a backlit frame, this is the media to choose for authentic movie posters, and it’s one of our most popular medias, we are the industry leader in printing backlit film, and actually print movie posters for many of the theater chains like AMC and Regal.
Selecting the right material and finish depends on your specific needs and the environment where the poster will be displayed. Whether you’re aiming for a high-end look with matte finishes or vibrant visuals with gloss, we have the perfect options to make your custom size movie posters stand out.
