Remember, when the walls of sound studios were clad with egg cartons to dampen the sound? Technology and design have come a long way since then. Sound specialists, Acoustica, produce sound absorption panels that have been deliberately designed as a visual feature.
 

Now that the OS X compatible-QuarkXPress 6 has been released some people are now saying that Quark is an InDesign killer? I spoke with a few operators from RedSquare Design about their views on the two applications.

Creating distinctive breakout areas for corporate environments is an increasing trend. We recently worked with Geyer to liven-up the breakout areas of IAG’s head office in Pyrmont, Sydney with vibrant PhotoGlass™.
 

Aero
This plastic roll-up stand has a telescopic pole, which allows you to have your graphics from any height up to its full height of 2100 mm. The telescopic pole is stored inside the base, making the system extremely compact. It is currently available in one size: 880 mm wide x 2100 mm tall, single sided only.

Easy
The Easy stands securely on three legs that cleverly tuck-up underneath the stand’s support pole. The height can be adjusted up to 2000 mm in the smaller model and 2400 mm in the larger. Both models will hold three different graphic widths: 800mm, 1000mm and 1200mm wide.

Question: What is your stickiest vinyl?

Answer: Any self-adhesive vinyl we supply will work well, as long as the surface has been prepared properly so that it is clean and smooth. A gyprock surface, for example, needs to be painted with two layers of acrylic undercoat before the vinyl is applied. If you’re in doubt about how to properly prepare your surface, please get in touch with one of our experienced staff before risking damage to your graphic.

We recently produced latex posters for the soon to be released film The Night We Called it a Day. Icon Film Distribution made the switch from conventional screen printing to our digital printing process a couple of years ago due to its fast turn around time and cost effectiveness. They’ve been using us ever since.
If you’d like to win one of 20 double passes to the film send an email to jillian.nalty@flash.com.au. Good Luck!
