5 Tips For Designing Your Backdrop

Red Carpet Runway experts have compiled 5 important tips to help you plan the perfect red carpet event!

 

1. Size Matters


Make sure you know how much space you are working with so you will have the appropriate size backdrop for your party.
Gold – 5 feet wide, great for 2-3 people

5' x 8' Gold Package

Platinum – 7 feet wide, great for 3-4 people

7' x 8' Platinum Package

Hollywood – 10 feet wide, great for 4-5 people & group photos

2. Logo Quality


For best quality output, logos should be in original Vector files (.ai, .eps, .pdf) If you are using Raster files (.psd, .jpg, tif ) – they should be 300 dpi or better for best output. Your logo can be manipulated as needed from there.

Raster v. Vector Images

3. Logo Structure


For best visual results, the logo width shouldn’t be more than double the height. Note: Disproportionately sized logos may disturb the patterned layout.

Balance v. Unblanaced Logos

4. Fonts


When choosing patterns that include both text and logos, or text only, select a font style that is bold, clean, clear and can be read from a distance.
