Big Head Cutouts

Examples of work we've printed. We send a digital proof of your artwork before anything goes to press.

Big Head Cutouts

Oversized face cutouts, for sidelines, send-offs and activations.

A photo printed at scale and cut to shape. Three sizes, with a handle on the small one.

Sporting clubs, milestone birthdays, bucks and hens nights, and brand activations where a face is the point.

Timing is confirmed with your quote - tell us your date and we'll say straight away whether it's achievable. Collect from Fyshwick, or we ship anywhere in Australia.

Size

Height is fixed; width follows the shape of the photo you send.

Material

Corrugated is lightweight and weather-resistant for outdoors. Foam PVC is smoother and better indoors.

Quantity

Quoted to your spec, quantity and deadline.

Artwork requirements and templatesAll signage

Artwork requirements

Large format is read from metres away, so it needs far less resolution than print does - but it is less forgiving about scale and bleed.

  • Print-ready PDF with no trim, crop or registration marks on it
  • Set up at 100% scale full size, not scaled down. We'll send you the right artwork template for your chosen specs once the quote is approved
  • Vector art if you have it it scales to any size and the edges stay sharp. A photo or a flattened logo can't
  • Bitmap images at 130 dpi or higher at full size large format is read from metres away, so it needs far less than a business card
  • Fonts converted to outlines as paths or curves, so nothing substitutes on our end
  • Every image and element embedded anything linked rather than embedded arrives missing
  • CMYK, not RGB and if brand colour is critical, send Pantone references from the PANTONE+ Solid Coated library

We'll send you the template

Once you've chosen your specs and approved the quote, our team sends the correct artwork template for exactly that product and size, with the bleed and safe area already marked. Nothing to hunt for, and no guessing which one applies.

Not sure? Send what you have. Our in-house design team checks every file before it goes to press and we'll tell you if something needs fixing before it costs you a reprint. Artwork preparation is quoted separately, and you'll never get a surprise line item.

Common questions

What sizes are available?

380mm high with a handle, 600mm high, and 900mm high. Height is fixed and the width follows the shape of the face you send, so a wide crop makes a wider cutout.

Signflute or Foam PVC?

3mm corrugated plastic is lightweight and weather-resistant, so it suits outdoor events. 3mm foam PVC has a smooth, premium finish and is better indoors. If it is going to a game, choose the corrugated one.

What photo do you need?

The higher the resolution the better, because the face is being blown up well past life size. A phone photo taken close and in good light usually works; a small cropped social media image usually does not. Send what you have and we will tell you before it goes to print.

How long do they take?

We confirm the lead time with your quote rather than publishing one, because it moves a lot with the material, the size and the finishing. Tell us the date you are working to and we will tell you straight away whether it is achievable - plenty of signage moves faster than people expect.

Anything else

Something outside the standard spec?

The standard spec covers most jobs. Where it gets interesting is everything that isn't on this page.

  • Matching something you already have

    Send us a sample. We'll match the stock, the finish and the trim so a reprint sits alongside what you have rather than beside it.

  • A stock or finish that isn't listed

    Heavier boards, textured and uncoated stocks, laminates, soft-touch. Tell us what you're after and we'll tell you what's achievable and what it changes.

  • A non-standard size or shape

    Square, slimline, rounded corners, die-cut. All possible, and all worth quoting properly rather than guessing at.

Tell us the date. We'll tell you how it's possible.

Most quotes come back the same business day. Give us quantity, branding and deadline, and we can usually map out a way to get there.
