Description: However there are 5 main types of lenticular effects…
Flip.. which as you walk past, or move the lenticular(hand held) you will see a transition form 1 picture to the other picture.
Animation… this is a series of very similar frames all put together so as you walk past you see a fluid movement (could be someone walking along, a car driving along, a flower opening etc etc).
Zoom.. works on the same principle as animation except uses a series of similar frames from small to large, so as you walk past the image it grows larger and larger
Morph... Morph takes 2 images just like a flip however we use a special piece of software to integrate the two images using lots of similar frames that changes each one gradually to the shape of the second image as you walk by
3d (skull,peter blake) these you don’t need to walk past they are viewed head on where you will start to see depth in the poster.
We use several different types of lens stock to help us achieve these differences and including small format have 7 different types in all. The majority of the plastics are petg with some being acrylics. Everything is printed using 4 colour process 6 colour in some rare instances. Backlit displays are produced in a slightly different way to cope with the saturation and extra colour loading required. Once printed they are mounted and sealed to protect them. Finally they are put on a routing machine to cut to shape.
Further info on 3D lenticular (For the love of God):
is that the ribbed side of lenticular is the front and the flat part on the reverse is the side that is printed on.
As for file manipulation and the way we pull everything together prior to the print process it is a combination of both very specific technology and finely tuned human artistic skill. The rest of it I am afraid is very much our own I.P. which has taken many years to develop.
In effect we redesign their artwork and create a completely new version made up of a differing number of frames depending on the subject matter and where it is being shown. Each frame which is at a slightly different angle to the next then get interlaced (striped together) to form one picture. This file will then be printed onto a specific lens stock.
