It will depend of the 3 following key elements:
the effect
the image size
the viewing distance

 

for flip – A4 to poster size – short viewing distance: 50 LPI-M –Motion HD

for flip or “3D&flip” – medium to large format – long viewing distance: 40 LPI Very Large Format

for 3D or “fast” flip up to A4 size – short viewing distance: the 60 LPI APET

for 3D – A4 to poster size – short viewing distance: 3D-50LPI

for 3D – medium format – medium viewing distance: 3D 28 LPI UV-MF  (not available actually).

for 3D – large format – long viewing distance: 3D 20 LPI PETG-LF

for Motion pictures – medium to large format: Motion 20 LPI PETG-LF

If you’d like to compare, you can order a STARTER PACK just clicking here.

If you are using a flatbed printer, (because of the dot volume), we would not recommend more than 50 LPI for optimal quality.

And the nominees are…

The jury deliberation for the LENSTAR LENTICULAR PRINT AWARD 2016 took place on 19 May and went extremely well thanks to the enthusiastic engagement of each member of the jury.

The composition of the jury enabled balanced discussions and debates on the items that were submitted for this 3rd edition of the LENSTAR LENTICULAR PRINT AWARD.

Indeed, half of the jury members can be considered as leading experts in the lenticular process (from creation to production), while the other half of the jury are experts in the fields of design and communication, be this artistic or purely commercial with a solid background in advertising, from brand image to retail marketing.

And 100% of the jury members all agreed on an obvious statement: the lenticular process dramatically enhances the communication potential compared with traditional 2 dimensional print.

LLPA Special Jury Award

In this sense, the LLPA 2016 is a great talent-spotter which celebrates innovations that connect with this era of digital communication and social media.

This edition revealed some prime examples of such success stories, which is why (incidentally) the jury unanimously decided it wanted a new category: the LLPA 2016 Special Jury Award.

Looking at the increased quality of the material we have seen this year, we are very much inspired to continue and we already have some great plans and ideas for the next edition! But let’s not be hasty…

Montier Nature Photo Festival

A truly unique event in Europe for wildlife and nature photography!Festival Photo Nature Montier-en-Der

Organized by “l’Association pour le Festival de la Photo Animalière et de Nature (AFPAN « l’Or Vert »)”, the 19th Montier Photo Festival took place on 19, 20, 21 and 22 November 2015 in Montier-en-Der (Haute-Marne / Champagne Ardenne). It was the event not to be missed for nature & wildlife photography enthusiasts, amateurs and professionals. Despite of the special context (and the bad weather), more than 37000 visitors were present!

This year, the visitors could also discover an exhibition called “Lenticulaire en Der”, the idea is to allow the photographers to evaluate the possibilities of lenticular photography. Many were surprized to see the lenticular images !

Lenticulaire en Der

On Daniel Pierret’s initiative, 3 photographers were exhibiting within the framework of the project ” Lenticular in Der ” : Henri Clément (France), Giovanni Remigi (Ireland) and ThreeD Makers ( Italy). All are fascinated by 3D imaging and the possibilities offered by lenticular imaging which allows the creation of a 3Dimensional image without the need for 3D glasses. There were also “motion” images, showing several moments of nature in 1 image (the seasons, the tides…).

3D Focus staking Macro Photography by Giovanni Remigi

Italian photographer Giovanni Remigi reveals the secrets to creating dramatic, exciting 3D images of insects in his current work: 3D focus staking in Montier-en-Der, France.  Giovanni was featuring images of his 3D work that can be viewed without 3D glasses.

Born in Italy, Giovanni is one of the few artists who takes pictures in 3D. He graduated from the University of Padua in 2001 with a Master’s degree in Computer Science. He moved to Dublin in 2005 where he has been experimenting with digital photography and where he quickly developed a passion for studio portraits.

In the search for his own personal style, he decided to combine his engineering and photographic skills to create something different. He started writing software, designing electronic circuits and building mechanical devices and in 2010 he succeeded producing his first 3D autostereoscopic portrait.

Since then, all his photographic work has been focused on autostereoscopic 3D pictures, three-dimensional images that can be seen without special glasses or lighting conditions.

His 3D work with insects is intentionally very minimalistic and the complexity of each subject is displayed in scientific detail and beauty.

Henri Clément during one of the conferences

Henri Clement

Henri Clement is a professional advertising photographer, and since 1995 he specialized in the creation of lenticular images. “I prepare the photo sh© Henri Clementoots in my  studio, and I handle in-house the digital post-production, printing, and mounting. In 2001, I created mycompany “L’Imbricateur” fully dedicated to lenticular images, and also broaden my activities to all the possible image sources –drawings, illustrations, 3D computer graphics, video caps – that can be brought into lenticular images.”

In 2005, he conceived the installation of a dedicated tool comprising a motorized rail that allows him to take high speed shots. Since then he has continued to perfect his personal work taking an interest in portraits and live models. Since 2007, he is organizing regular exhibitions to showcase his personal photographic creations in 3D.

Henri also organizes regular training sessions for lenticular techniques. He lives and works in Paris and in Brittany.
