Innova Art and The Archives at Photokina 2016

Visit Cologne later this month to see the latest developments in the Innova Art range alongside images of some of the most iconic stars of the 20th Century. There have been a lot of developments to the Innova Art range of products over the last few months and Stand A6/C5 in Hall 3.1 at Photokina 2016 will be the place to be to see them all. See our newest image display products including brand new panoramic size 8x20" JetMaster Photo Panels and Hexagonal GOframe canvas stretching systems. Demonstrations will be taking place daily on the stand so you can see just how easy it is to make these professional image displays yourself. In addition to the new developments in the JetMaster and GOframe ranges we will also be showing Pinchbook Photobooks: album and photo book covers that make binding so simple it only takes seconds. These products are the ideal addition to your print shop display range making great upsell options when combined with the Innova range of inkjet papers.

What Is Art?

Art is such a personal thing that I am not sure this question can be answered completely. For me art is something that I personally think to be beautiful, something that makes me think about the world or see something from another perspective. Art is no longer a painting or a drawing, the evolution of technology has meant that it now covers a light show or immersive, interactive experiences (anyone experience The Curiosity Cloud as part of London Design Festival last month?). For me there is something transient about the meaning of art, not just the work hanging on gallery walls or the editions being sold by artists worldwide but in the more every day designs we encounter. It used to be that only oil paintings or sculptures were considered to be art, now it can be anything. Previously the only ephemeral art form was flyers or posters pasted on a wall, perhaps this is still true but digital art also has ephemeral qualities, yet at the same time it has permanence. If you missed a light show or projection on the side of a building, that’s it, it’s gone, but YouTube can help you capture the essence of the experience. People collect posters, flyers and postcards because they like the way they look. You can spend hours working on a digital painting only to have the file corrupt on you when you try and open it again – not only a lesson in remembering to back up multiple file versions but also an example of how temporary the digital landscape can be. Recreating that painting is possible but starting from scratch means that not every pixel will be in the same place as before. [...]

What Contributes To Adding Value When Printing? eInnovation News; August 2015

If you are a print company then you have probably heard all the usual tips for adding value to a print business, including offering design services or diversifying into multi-channel marketing solutions. Possibly you are even using some of them, but what about adding something extra to the print itself, does adding value only refer to the business as a whole or can something be done to increase the value of each individual print? You can start from the basics of presentation, are you a photographer who sends printed proofs before clients make their final choices? How do you send those proofs, are they simply placed into an envelope? How about placing them into a reusable Pinchbook Photo Book instead? Send the book to your customers and ask them to remove the photos they do not like then send it back. When they return the book to you it will only contain the shots they love. If someone buys a single print, do you have the facility to offer an upsell on that item? JetMaster Image Display Systems provide simple display options, using minimal tools and can be created in just a few minutes, reducing the need for outsourcing on framing jobs. Something else that can potentially add value to an individual print is embellishment. Whilst it involves more time as each print needs to be hand finished, it could be the icing on the cake to convince your customers to buy. Embellishment options range from using clear textured mediums over inkjet reproductions of original paintings, returning the texture of brush strokes to the print, to editing the print from the original by adding sections of gold leaf or flourescent colours to certain areas. These [...]
