Help!

I am working on a one-sheet for Smuggler's Ransom, and I have a front page I like, but the back page is KILLING me! I have a bunch of stills from the film I'd like to use... and a synopsis... Is anyone willing to try and help me out? Thanks!
 
Not sure what you're making here. A One Sheet is a movie poster and I'm not aware of any that have a front and back other than a double sided one sheet that has a mirror image on the back. See the link below for a description of One Sheets:

Perhaps you are talking about a DVD box cover, many of which use the One Sheet artwork on the front?
 
Yeah -- true one-sheets are the same on the back, except flipped horizontally so that front and back line up. It helps image quality when placed in a lightbox like most movie theater lobbies have.

Do you mean sell sheet? Are you doing an 8.5x11 flyer for promo purposes?
 
For sell sheets I like to have 1 side look like a movie poster and the other side show off a few frames and have the synopsis. I usually put SRP and ordering info on both sides, as well as UPC/ISBN and 3D box art if available so they actually 'see' the physical DVD product.

That won't all apply if the sheet is targeted towards finding distribution. If you have any one-liners from critics it would be a nice tough. Running time should be on there for sure, as well as your contact info.

There are some truly horrible sell sheets out there for high profile flicks, so I'm sure whatever you've got going will rank nicely!

I use AmericasPrinter.com for most of my stuff like that... great pricing, fast turnaround, good service. 100lb book 4/4 8.5x11 is a great deal over there for qty of 1,000 and up.
