does this poster exist????

[teamweapon]

wouldnt mind this becoming a usefull thread, as i see quite a few poster images on line and never actually get to see them as a physical print or for sale even!

i will kick off with the 2014 RR of beauty and the beast quad. i can not find ANY pics of it online ANYWHERE, but as i went to see it at the cinema i can confirm the quad design was a photgraph of the beast hovering over belles bed while she is asleep and that its was a real poster and not a digital print. although being a BFI release this would be the case.

and now i dont really follow modern 1-sheets so much but i have yet to see one of these floating around for sale?


and just so you know i expect the movie will be UTTERLY unwatchable

Aren't these small release BFI posters inkjet prints?  Anyway, I couldn't find the BFI poster but found this image on the BFI site:



Willow Creek has only been shown at a couple of film festivals, would be very difficult to find that poster:

It will not be "officially released" in the US on June 6, so maybe a few posters will get out.

well the poster for the B&B is DEFFO a litho print!
and the image is similar to that but its had some jiggery pokery added to make it more ethereal looking.
nice poster but its the only time i have seen it.

Well by no means am I an expert on litho printing but digital printing is much more common for low print runs:

yep you are right.
while i also am not an expert either i can tell the difference between different types of printing, just through my own experience of doing quite a lot of print work and also helping out at my mates graphic design studio from time to time.
i have a few digital printed quads and they tend to be printed on matte plotter paper, well all the ones i have seen are. but even if it was produced on a more modern style of digital printer i can see the difference, the print is SLIGHTLY raised from the paper and you can just tell the difference from litho. i have always had an interest in print , i notice it in books i buy, and also type of stock that is used. its the difference between cheap and slick i guess.

i should also say that i do not own any bfi quads to compare? i am sure that some one here does have and could say what kind of print is on their poster.

has this poster ever been printed?



the quad for this film STINKS to high heaven!!!!
great movie by the way

[teamweapon]

 i have seen the alternative design with the large title floating around, but i much prefer this version.
also a pretty neat little movie i enjoyed

OT but I took a large digital image to one of the top commercial printers in DC and they swore up and down that it was impossible to print a large digital image greater than DPI on their commercial (presumably digital) printers.  Is that correct?

Found one in 20 seconds for sale. Sent you a PM. You so owe me!

[teamweapon]

hmmm well as i said im no expert either?
but technology shifts along at quite a clip in printing as with most things?
i reckon i could do some digging around and find out whats what with it all?

im attending a festival organised by the dude i know with the graphic design company next week. and one of his mates owns a really quite large printing operation [hes also quite crazy!!] so i can find out the score when i see him next week, possibly?

nice find on the selfish giant! i also said modern 1-sheets isnt my expertise either
even though im not that fussed about having a poster for that movie, [i may do yet who knows] but i was just curious to know if it existed?
i dont scan ebay.com for 1 sheets as its just too time consuming for me i already spend about 2 hours a day on there and thats too much i think!
so i figured some one might?
thanks mel !
