If you re in a rush, vinyl graphics can be an efficient, low-cost option. There is a down side to vinyl, though. It s also costly to produce a large quantity of the same image. If you need five or six identical copies, consider another production method. Photographs, especially the large-format variety, are another popular and effective type of graphic for show use.
Photos are images created by exposing a light-sensitive paper or plastic medium to light.
Once you select the image, it is time to move into the production process. You will get the best end product working from the original transparency or negative of the image. You can also get very good results from a copy of the original negative - but bear in mind that each step you add will diminish the quality of the final output. That means if you adjust one color, you adjust them all. Realize that you also may need to crop your photo to fit the space provided for it in your exhibit.
