L.A. Film Festival means Film Festival Printing!

Throughout the year we see a spike in business as opening night for the next film festival approaches. No matter what state the film festival is located in, or the size of the festival, we can always foresee a surge in what most call “Film Festival Printing.” There is certainly no exception for this years Los Angeles Film Festival. The LA Film Fest is located in Indie Printing’s backyard this year as it makes its way from the westside to Downtown L.A. The LA Film Fest kicks off June 17th and goes on till the 27th utilizing over a dozen of Downtown new and historic locations.

As filmmakers prepare to strategize on how to get their movie seen, we begin to strategize on how to accommodate the onslaught of next day and same day turnaround times that inevitably will avalanche down Pico Blvd. Indie Printing is literally 4 blocks from the LA Film Festival this year, so we’re a pretty convenient “one stop print shop.” Nobody really wants to use Kinko’s right? We’ve already begun to see a few order trickling in for movie poster printing, and the phones have begun to ring asking for advise on what an Indie filmmaker needs to promote at a film festival.

Indie printing is proud to have pioneered “Filmmaker Print Packages.” Many printers now offer packages directly made to fit the needs of a filmmaker promoting their film at film festivals, but Indie Printing was the first printer to create filmmaker print packages in 2003. The packages were first introduced at the 2003 Sundance Film Festival, and have been a great tool for any filmmaker in need of a quick resource for knowing what is necessary when promoting a film at any film festival.

The filmmaker packages usually contain a couple larger movie posters to post at the theatre a film will be screening at, some business cards and postcards for the hand-to-hand marketing and a bunch of smaller 11×17 posters to plaster all around town.  The filmmaker print packages are economical too, starting at just $299 for some large and small posters, business cards and postcards. We do often create custom packages to suit any filmmaker’s printing needs. We like to think our predetermined filmmaker packages are more of a template for the filmmaker who is new to the film festival world.

You can view our filmmaker print packages here, along with our other industry print packages for musicians, actors, theatre groups, and small business. If your in the need for film festival printing, movie poster printing, or any other printing for that matter, give us a call! We do large and small quantity movie posters, postcards, business cards and can do same day turnarounds if your in a jam. We love being one of the best Los Angeles movie poster printing companies, and are always happy to help. Since 2003 Indie Printing has been catering to the independent mind on the independent budget.
