  1. 0:00A good poster brief starts with where it will hang.
  2. 0:05First, measure the real display. Open the frame and measure the insert, not the outside edge, and note how far away people will stand.
  3. 0:16Then check the layout at finished size: headline, image and action must read from there. For close viewing, about 300 ppi is a common target.
  4. 0:27Choose the surface for the lighting. Gloss reflects, matte cuts glare, satin sits between. Lamination, backing and frames are separate items to request.
  5. 0:38Finally, set trim, bleed and safe area. Check layout on the digital proof, and color and feel on a physical sample before production.

  7. 1:01Send size, quantity, paper and surface, and display location.
