In Great Patriotic War. Many would like to take part in a patriotic event, but are faced with a problem - how to make a banner with a photo with your own hands in order to take part in the march?
Many would like to pay tribute to veterans who died in the war or died in another world. On the eve of the holiday, the question increasingly arises: how exactly to make a banner or banner if there is no decorated portrait of a veteran. However, the problem is completely solvable - all you need is a pair of hands, some materials and half an hour of free time.
How to make a banner and design a photograph for the “Immortal Regiment” with your own hands – dimensions, ideas, instructions:
To begin with, I would like to note that there are no special rules when designing a banner. Dimensions are not regulated, there are no manufacturing standards, since the action is voluntary. The size of the plate and photograph should be taken into account, based on size original photo veteran so that it doesn't lose quality when scaling. Many people use original portrait photos from the times of their dead relatives, but for better preservation they are still scanned and then printed on a black-and-white or color printer.
Having decided on the size and printing, you can prepare the basis. This will require a sheet of cardboard or plastic. The ideal option is lightweight foam plastic ceiling tiles in the form of a rectangle - you will need 2 pieces, which need to be glued to each other with glue. Suitable for cardboard PVA glue, for tiles - “liquid nails”, shoe glue. etc. Afterwards you can work on the pen - take wooden slats, which wrap it with tape to smooth the surface and glue it to the sign on the back side.
All that's left is stick a photo of a veteran on a sign, and sign below with a black marker, or paste printed text with name and dates of life and death, regiment affiliation and other available information at your discretion. Let the glue dry. Also welcome decorate the banner with St. George's ribbon. The banner for the “Immortal Regiment” is ready.
Immortal Regiment 2017 - how to take part in the procession. The action is voluntary, so in order to march in the procession with a portrait of your grandfather, no need to register anywhere. In some cities there are movement coordinators that you can join, by filling out a request on the website Mypolk.ru.
City administrations are also involved in the “Immortal Regiment 2017” - Volunteers are being recruited. Their tasks include taking photographs, regulating the movement of the column along a given route, distributing St. George ribbons, flags and other attributes. For those who want to simply take part in the “Immortal Regiment” action, it is enough to find out which street the procession starts from and join all-Russian action in memory of the liberating soldiers.
The main issue when preparing for the procession is creating a pillar and preparing photographs for it. You can create a banner with a photo for the Immortal Regiment in the online generator - simply by adding a photo of the hero to the finished frame.
There is an online generator for designing photo frames on the website copy.spb.ru.
To start working in the sign designer, you need to select a sign or a T-shirt, a mug, or a magnet. Go to the page and click on the red “Create online” button. Next, take the photo for decoration, insert it into the frame for the Immortal Regiment pillar, center it as needed and add information about the hero.
After the portrait is ready, fill out information about the customer and select the address where you will pick up the pillar after production. This is enough for the pillar to go into operation.
Photo frame Immortal Regiment online
You can insert a photo and frame it for the Immortal Regiment pillar online at the link. In addition to the single pillar, double or triple pillars are available to order. T-shirts and mugs with a photo of the hero are available for order.
ATTENTION! If you just need to take a photo, but don’t want to order a pillar, or you don’t live in St. Petersburg, then the described online designer will not work, since it is made to order pillars only for St. Petersburg. BUT you can do it differently - (under the pictures) and redo it yourself in Photoshop.
Good luck with your preparations for the march! See you at the Immortal Regiment parade!
Briefly about the "Immortal Regiment" campaign
The public part of the Victory Parade "Immortal Regiment" takes place every year on May 9 along Red Square.
Anyone can take part, grateful to their relative who went through the war or was a home front worker.
In the column of the “Immortal Regiment” at the Victory Parade on Red Square, he comes out with a photograph of a veteran.
The veteran deserved to have his portrait carried across Red Square. He won the war and he goes to the parade again!
Attention! We continue to make portraits of veterans, because many simply need to have a portrait in a frame.
Why you need to order a banner for the “Immortal Regiment” from us:
- We make a long handle:
You do not need to carry the banner at arm's length, you can carry it with your arm down and your arm will not get tired; - When ordering a photo in a frame, you yourself, by removing the removable handle, can hang the portrait on the wall;
- The portrait will be made on plastic, not on foam board, it will not break at the holiday and will not begin to warp in a week;
- We can make a sign according to your design;
- Before production, we agree with you on how the banner will look;
- We will not spoil your photo with glue.
We do not charge additional money for decorating a portrait with the proposed symbols.
Exceptions - option No. 7 and No. 8;
We make signs and banners with photographs of front-line soldiers for the “Immortal Regiment” campaign.
The standard portrait size for the “Immortal Regiment” campaign is 30x45cm. For your convenience, we make the leg long - almost a meter.
The banner photograph will be made of plastic (not foam board!), because... plastic is a tougher material
it does not break, will not warp and is not afraid of rain and moisture.
And your sign with a photo of a veteran will not break at the height of the holiday...
Sometimes it turns out that not a single photograph of a front-line soldier has survived. Then we make the following options for the pillar:
It can be made with an aluminum frame or without a frame, vertical or horizontal.
If there is a photo, then:
We offer several options for the procession:
We can produce all options both framed and without frame at your request. And if you have two front-line soldiers, then we can place two photographs on one banner.
Considering that we do light retouching and scanning for free, our prices are the lowest in Moscow or one of the lowest.
Therefore, before the holiday, due to an increase in the number of orders, we may not have time to process everything.
Please be understanding and place your order in advance.
You can place an order even on a weekend. Send an email to [email protected]
- We do not glue your photo with glue (to glue it means to ruin it);
- we scan it (for free!) and do not perform any further operations with it - we return it to you in the same condition;
- improve the quality of the portrait (if not difficult work, then it’s free!)
- increase the size (for free!);
- We print on film, not paper;
- crop the desired part of the image;
- laminate (lamination protects the photograph from rain and mechanical damage);
- roll onto PVC;
- attach a handle.
The handle is attached to the back and is removable.
All this is included in the price listed below.
All we need from you is a photo of the veteran or a file. Try to find a photo good quality, the quality of the portrait depends on this.
Often photos for promotions are old, faded, torn, with stains, with traces of unsuccessful retouching, with lost image details, and with many folds. This is not surprising, many of them were at the front. We do everything we can to bring them into acceptable condition and it takes time to ensure that you receive a banner of good quality.
But the photos still won't be perfect. Some of them cannot be restored at all.
We will do very light retouching for free, but in general retouching is optional.
However, at your request, we also do paid photo restoration. The estimated cost of retouching work is 500 - 1000 rubles, depending on the complexity and volume of work.
Unfortunately, not everyone has preserved photographs. In this case, there is an option without a photo, only with the last name.
Price:
- without frame - 800 rub.
- in an aluminum frame - 1400 rub. (The frame is mostly silver)
- in an aluminum frame with a special eyelet for hanging on the wall - RUB 1,500.
The advantage of the latter option is that after the event you will be able to remove the handle and hang the veteran’s portrait on the wall.
This will be a memory.
Since the portrait will be made in a beautiful aluminum baguette, it will look quite decent.
If necessary, we can make a sign for two or three photographs. The cost is determined separately.
How they deceive you
This happens even at such promotions. On many websites they only have the price, but what it’s all made of is not written.
There is usually no free retouching or cropping of photos. Add up all the prices before making your decision.
Some even use 3mm thick foam board or glue paper - it’s cheaper. If the foam board banner breaks,
or the paper gets wet during the rain - you will be uncomfortable at the procession, but this will be your problem.
All this is deliberate hackwork and if you don’t want to get into trouble, contact us.
If you still decide not to buy from us (you found it even cheaper):
1) You shouldn’t take an image printed on paper, you can’t do anything good with it, it will just get wet;
2) With a short handle you will get tired;
3) Even light retouching of the image will not be done;
4) You will get what is on the source, no one will select part of the frame;
5) Foam board will warp and break;
6) Your banner will not stand out among others for the better.
