Typing catalog of his works

[Seriy]

I publish a small catalog of his works , 16 pages of A4.
And I can not decide whether to print and not at the same time , the leaflet A4 or A5 , as many do , for free distribution , such as business cards?
The name of the artist, his pictures , contacts , a pair of work ....
"For" - like many are doing it , advertising, cheap.
"AGAINST " - the general opinion , no sense from them , circulation is divergent without apparent response. Personally, I take these flyers , and then throw away . T e , if not confusing , it may be wiser to add 4 pages in the catalog? or something else to print?

may be wiser to add 4 pages in the directory?

Or to increase circulation?

spigo, 200 copies digit cost as much as 500 offset. A 500 offset differ by only several scroll thousand rubles of 1000 copies. Where so much ? T e after 200 copies the value of each specimen begins to fall rapidly , you can print at least 10 thousand would be a point ... So far tend to offset. Tomorrow I will make color proof numbers, make up my mind .
Simply , if we print offset, then add to the overall layout of the leaflet is easily and economically , you do not pay for additional makeready offset machines, as I understand it .

I happens that the artist liked, however, spend the money on his directory as something not yet available. But a well- printed leaflet ( especially if it let a lot of small but clear reproductions ) is pleased to take. Wear in the pocket and occasionally glancing at the pictures - imbued .

And if you meet a friend , lover , and you show him , but at the same time you give a flyer - his or stuck in reserve . So I personally am glad the availability of leaflets on a stand. In my opinion, it makes sense, if done cheaply and efficiently .

Seriy, the leaflet may be of interest in anticipation of the exhibition, but if almost nothing ... will lie and do not ask for bread.
Another option is to print a pocket calendars, and to give convenient and appropriate or distribution on any arena, but in 2012

IV, I have a directory will be such an extended business card , it is short - 16 pages and is cheap. Because large print , serious and high-quality directory to me not by status. Many small pictures (and medium ) - exactly as you said, and with the same goal .
Calendars , great idea, but ... as opposed to the catalog, they'll simultaneously. You can fly , and then just have them throw in the trash.

That's right, should be planned.
Say the same personal (not necessarily) the exhibition, just throw them in moments of absence from the show, as you could put between the frame and the picture instead of red circle >

Seriy, is a good thing (the experience gained in the work).
Take as a first attempt, life will show how to proceed further ..

wanted to ask: what is due to the choice of format?
What is the most convenient?

What is the cost of 1 unit?
(If not a trade secret)

[Seriy]

NATA NOVA, I discuss the technical issues still to Artnau , look , there are details. The entire layout at a cost that depends on the circulation, size of paper used and is shown , for example , on a site printing of "50 cents " and is a standard for Moscow.
About the A4 , I decided on the basis of personal experience , non-standard formats have nowhere to put , spilling everywhere . I, for example , a given directory in the United States , he left a non-standard and sticking out from everywhere luggage wrinkled. A4 is the perfect themselves in piles of other papers . Second, the offset - printing of small ( up to 10 thousand units) runs carried out with A1 prints , T e 8 pieces of A4. If the format is unusual to be cut , t e uneconomical. 1000 copies cost effective per unit, but where to put it? people over the years such circulation is realized if the artist is not a star .

Seriy, and if you sell at cost, too, do not take (or, first 50 and then in the circumstances ...)
