When you have your key art designed, it’s a good idea to keep VOD in mind: make sure there’s extra image area outside of the crop of the theatrical poster, so you have that image data available if you need to widen an area or shift a character into the frame better. Once the main artwork has been resized into these three aspect ratios, it’s only a matter of subtle tweaks to get them to the rest of the specific pixel dimensions, requiring shaving a few pixels from the top and bottom or sides. See for yourself a handful of dimensions required by Gracenote and TiVo below as an example:Īs we can see, there are a variety of sizes required, but luckily they can be broken down into a handful of main crops: horizontal rectangle, vertical rectangle, and square. There are no standards across services, and even within a service, you will need different sizes. This is where things get a bit more complicated, but don’t worry, it’s manageable! The truth about VOD services is that there’s no ONE common size that all of them request.

Since the end result is usually going to be a poster on someone’s wall at home, 24″ x 36″ frames are much easier to find as it is the common (non-movie) poster size, so these types of posters are usually sized in this way. I need an alternative movie poster or a poster for a promotional giveawayĪlternative movie posters and the ones you find rolled up at department stores are usually the easier-to-frame dimensions of 24″ x 36″. Once the quad poster is designed, it can then be cropped down to the North American size with no worry. If you’re having a poster designed and considering a release in the UK as well, it’s best to have the poster designed 40″ x 30″ having a “safe zone” of a 2:3 ratio within it (the North American standard) where no important imagery or text will go beyond. Measuring at 40″ x 30″ these posters are just 3″ larger than North American posters but with the big difference of being horizontal instead of the standard North American vertical. The British market has its very own standard poster size, and that is the quad poster. I need a theatrical poster… and I’m in the UK! The poster should be at least 150 dpi if you’re having it printed, but if it is to be used online-only, the dpi doesn’t matter and you can simply focus on the pixel dimensions of your usage (usually at least 1500 pixels tall). Bleed is the extra image area on the edges of movie posters that allow the poster to be trimmed to their actual size after printing without having any white edges. The size for these posters is 27″ x 40″, and if you’re having one designed, don’t forget about the 0.125″ of “bleed” on each side. This poster size is the one you will see in the actual theater as well as the 2:3 ratio of poster graphics you commonly see on websites like IMDb. The most common request we see: the theatrical one-sheet poster. Not to worry, once you understand the end usage of your poster, the rest is a breeze!
