rvine, Calif., July 14, 2016 – Ghostbusters – a 2016 reboot of the classic 1984 supernatural action/comedy film – is set to open nationwide this Friday, July 15. In the new version, an all-female ghost-busting team (Melissa McCarthy, Kristin Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones) take on a massive number of slimy ghosts and ghouls threatening to take over New York City. In addition to all the CGI movie magic needed to bring these creepy characters to life, making the sets look real was a monumental task. To help bring the set to life, the film’s producers called on graphic designer Martin Charles. Using his considerable talents and his Roland wide-format printer, Charles gave an authentic look to everything from faux building walls and surface textures to the street signs, labels and bottles in the Ghostbusters’ lab.

Robbie Illos-Gerth runs two successful businesses in Buffalo, New York. Ministicks.com sells miniature custom printed hockey sticks, baseball bats and sports memorabilia, and Illostrative Gallerie designs and produces logos and marketing collateral for businesses and ad agencies.
An experienced graphic designer, Robbie launched her digital production with a Roland VersaCAMM 30-inch wide-format printer/cutter. She later added a second VersaCAMM, the VS-540i, with metallic and clear inks.
Until recently, Robbie had been outsourcing direct printing, but the expense, quality control and time sensitivity led her to consider adding a flatbed printer. She knew she needed high volume production at high quality, and the ability to print durable images directly on non-traditional materials.

“Glory, fly the banners high Glory, rend the day with your victory cry.”
—The Showdown, Deus Invictus
Banners have always been associated with glorious battle charges and royal proclamations of ownership waving boldly over giant castles. As such they have come down to us over the centuries with a very noble heritage. Even today banners can hold a positive connotation in people’s imagination.
Marshall McLuhan famously said that “the medium is the message.” Therefore banners are an ideal way to transmit messages using a well accepted and positively viewed medium. The problem with banners, of course, is how to hang them up. So here are some ideas to get you started…

When we think of floor graphics, we tend to think of digitally printed adhesive vinyl with a tough laminate stuck to a floor. You are likely very familiar with these applications in various retail settings, and may even have even used some of the great vinyl products available that are specifically designed for this purpose. But there are many more aspects to floor graphics than traditional media and application surfaces.
