I have contacted some vendors about an upcoming project. It's going to be an 18" x 24" collectible poster for an event I'm working on. Do any of you have experience with lenticular and if so, any thoughts or tips/tricks? Cheers Paul B. Cutler

From what I gather, it's a very expensive option. The multi-image material is laminated, very nice effects. There is a local vendor here on the east coast, call Hazen Paper at 413/538-8204. They've done some impressive DVD covers and book covers for Disney.

It's going to cost about $8 apiece for 1000 18" x 24" posters. So yeah, it's expensive. I'll look Hazen Paper up on the web - I have a couple of pretty good vendors here on the west coast that do a lot of work for the movie companies. I think the money is going to work out - we're still looking into that - so the design is going to be the big challenge. If I spend that much money it better be spectacular. I believe in myself so off we go� pbc

Paul, I assume you mean 3-D art prepared this way. A couple of thoughts...make sure you see actual lenticular samples they've produced, and that they're to your satisfaction. Also, be sure that you have exact instructions for how they want the source images prepared and submitted, and that you see a proof. Neil

There's several effects you can achieve with lenticular and I am thinking 3D. The samples I received are outstanding or I wouldn't be going down this road. We shall see how it develops. pbc

Paul, Yep, in retrospect I recall also seeing samples of both 3-D and art change varieties. Neil

Hazen looks like a paper wholesaler from the website.

I have found a vendor who supplied me with some samples that saved this project. It's fiscally taxing so it was off, until I showed the money men these. Outstanding stuff. For future reference it's big3d.com. They are based in Fresno CA. Cheers pbc
