I own a local company who does all kinds of various work for the local movie house.
When I say movie house, I actually mean just that.
It’s a movie theater that is structured and built off an old mansion. It is one of the biggest tourist attractions in our city. They show current movie releases just like any other movie theater, but it is very unique all together. The latest task I had to do was get a bunch of posters printed for a new movie that was just coming out that they were going to be showing in the movie house. The posters needed to be in within a week, so they did not give us much notice. We are not a printing company by any means, and we do not print posters on site. What we do is outsource all poster printing gigs to this one printing service that is in the city. We have a deal with them. Working for movie theaters is not the only thing we do here. We also have to take care of promotions for malls, stores and other businesses. So we are always printing posters, signs and other promotional material. With this movie poster mass printing job we had to get done in such a short time, we had to really talk our printing company into moving along fast with it all. It actually cost a bit more than usual because of the speedy request we had for these movie posters. We had to charge the movie house a bit more than usual for the express poster printing, and they were fine with it.
