Print on Demand
The development and perfection of archival inkjet printing that allows predictable reprinting from an original file makes the notion of print on demand a reality. For artists interested in printing an edition of original digital works, print on demand gives you the ability to produce limited editions without the cost of having to print the whole edition at one time.
At The Big Pixel Inc. we are dedicated to working with our clients to help them manage their editions, while reducing their investment by printing only the number of prints needed.
One of a Kind Printing
Artists who work digitally and wish to present a one of a kind representation of that work will find that The Big Pixel Inc. provides the highest quality service at an affordable price.
Reproduction
Many artists working with non digital media wish to have reproductions of their work made so that they can make those images available to a wider public. Not to be confused with work that has its origins from digital software, reproductions of work require that the original be photographed or scanned at a high resolution into a digital file that is then proofed and color corrected to resemble as closely as possible the original. In an attempt to do this there are a great number of variables. Some colors can be approximated but not reproduced exactly. In the end it is up to the client to determine what best represents the spirit of the original and then to sign off on a final proof that will represent the reproductions to be made.
In the reproduction process it is possible to create prints that are larger, smaller or identical in size to the original. Again it is up to the client to determine what is best suited to their need.
Some artists wish to limit the number of prints that are made of the original image and will certify that only so many prints will be produced. These prints are often referred to as limited reproductions. Here print on demand has the benefit of reducing the up front cost to the artist.
