How to take a great picture of a movie poster.

1. No flash it will darken the poster

2. Find a good backing a large piece of cardboard seems to work best.

3. Do not zoom

4. Use at least a 3 mega pixel camera

5. Natural even light is best

6. You can use indoor light but it has to be even

7. Use a tripod using a digital camera without flash can take a terrible picture unless you use a tripod to steady the camera

8. Do not over crop buyers want to see the whole poster not a small area

9. Do not tack your poster to a wall to take a picture use paper clips to hold it in place

10. Take two picture to make sure you got one you like.


Taking a great picture can make you up to 70 % more on your poster then one with a terrible picture.

It may take some time i suggest using a common poster to practice on
