Multiply Poster Popularity with Show-Stopping Special Effects

When you add the power of multisensory special effects to the ageless popularity of posters, the possibilities are anything but flat.

From Parisian cabaret posters of the 19th century to the interactive advertisements of modern times, the enduring popularity of posters shows no sign of waning.

Even in a digitally overloaded age, poster manufacturers can tap into a seemingly unlimited market for this adaptable form of art.

From art to advertising to collectible – and sometimes all three at once – the poster serves as a cultural marker, a messaging medium and an art form in endless varieties celebrating everything from nostalgia to fandom to self-improvement.

At H&H, our state-of-the-art multisensory and special effect print capabilities make us the partner of choice for a wide range of innovative poster manufacturers and brand managers.

Here are just a few of the ways that multisensory special effects printing maximizes the popularity of the poster to create something entirely new:
