When I was getting the production copies of the screenplays for our shoot, I checked with the printers ( a Kinko's type shop ) and they wanted $111 per poster. I wasn't prepared to spend it right then.

I have a friend in the publishing biz who has offered to put me into contact with printers he knows...maybe it's time to take him up on the offer.
 
I think Discmakers does posters in a bargain bundle with your DVD order. Never used them for that though...

yeah, if money is an issue, go with your friend. I've had posters designed and printed for around $400 - $600 by a woman who works at The Ant Farm -- where about half the movie posters you see for studio pictures are designed. If anyone's interested in some professional design work, i could pass her contact info along.

They do make posters but they're small.

That's just a printing charge. 10 posters = $1100. We've already got the design work done. Yes, I'd like the contact info on the woman at The Ant Farm. If you don't want to leave it on the BB you can PM it to me. :thumbsup:

jordan is no longer with the ant farm. she left about six months before i did. last i heard, she was in london. the poster she did for me was this one. oh, and the rate i quote earlier was a "friend and family" rate. it WAS for design, but that's why its so low.

IF you can do the design yourself, see if you can find someone that works for a big company that uses plotters. My wife works for someone like that and was able to sneak me in after hours to print a few.

You can also try some design schools. They may rent you time and charge you a fee for materials. Better yet, find an architectural or design student to do it for you.
 
It seems that the standard movie poster size is 27" X 40", printing companies that have a larger press can do this. I am waiting for a quote on 100lb glossy paper, I'll post the price quote when I get it.
