So far, some of the group members have been given quotes from A2 prints on exhibition boards for around £25 which is very expensive. I have already seen a sample from these boards and they appear to be of great quality.
I went over to the Digital Services in order to enquire about prices and what they would be able to print onto for our exhibition to see if they could offer a similar print. They informed me that they would be unable to print on A2 boards. However, they can offer a service where they can print onto A2 poster paper. This paper is thick plastic like paper, the same as professional poster paper for only £10. A huge saving to the previously quotes price. I feel that this would be just as good as the boards previously quoted for as we will be pinning the boards onto exhibition boards supplied by the University anyway.
I decided to upload this information onto facebook to find out what response I got from the other members in the entire group. It appears that some are for it and unfortunately some would rather have the thicker boards. I feel that for a saving of £15, that it’s definitely worth it, that’s over £200 saving on the entire class which could go towards food supplies. I feel that the group will be using the more expensive boards but it was worth the research and notifying the others on the cheaper option.
