We offer a Foolproof™ guarantee, that the brand identity you’ve developed matches the actual product going to market. In this same regard we offer the following: • Hero Color Comprehensives / • Digital Color Comprehensives For use as props in broadcast shoots, package photography and print campaigns— These high-quality comps ensure brand identity, especially when they’re integrated with any pre-production marketing. They not only present your product in the best light but also serve to support the design & color management process of each of these Medias. Hero comprehensives also serve as effective tools when used by marketing teams during the research and development phase of package design. • Foolproofing™ Foolproofing is the benchmark proofing process developed by Caps57 to solve print production issues prior to separations. We bring a "Reality Check" to the creative process. Our goal is to achieve maximum results by manipulating your package's imagery and color. Our process also eliminates any guesswork before going to press. Projects are processed faster, and achieve the goals set by design and marketing teams. The process starts with a thorough examination and review of files with your team to ascertain the targets and goals set for the packaging. We then propose a printable solution that meets or exceeds your goals. Final high-resolution files, color data information and proofs are all provided in support with any necessary communication to the separator. • Custom Photo Line Conversions A digital process offered by Caps57 for the enhancement of images. As a creative medium, photo line conversions can be very subjective. However, our digital artists will work with you to develop a unique effective visual that best reflects your original ideas. • Art Modifications Through the use of state-of-the-art computers and software, we are able to convert or modify your graphics files to make them compatible with the unique structures of today’s packaging production processes. Information and materials used in our comping process can then aid, and in some cases be directly applied, in the final production process. • Oversized Exhibition/Display Comps These mediums are available for both permanent and semi-permanent displays. We can provide materials at any size for any dimension. • Custom Model Painting/Model Making Models or products are built and or painted to your specifications and benefit by world-class attention to detail. • Photography/Retouching/Typography/Prepress Keylines These full-range departments serve as extended support services for all your art and prepress production needs.
