Lenticular Effect Types:

Lenticulars can have one or all of the effects combined into one piece!

Basic Flip

Basic 'Flip' effects (or two phase) are the most common effects that can be produced by Lenticular Graphics. A 'flip' refers to each image that is interlaced into a lenticular graphic. A 'Two Flip' forms the foundation of flip effects, and results in two images 'flipping' back and forth as the viewing angle of the printed piece is changed. Two-flips are the most dramatic of the filp effects, and are fantastic for demonstrating Before-and-after, Old-versus-New comparisons etc. Three flip up to 5 flip images can be done. After this number it becomes harder to see the different frames so we put 5 frames as a limit for different images.

Multi - Flip Effects

This 'Happy Feet' lenticular is a Three phase flip with 3d effects
for background. Lenticulars can use all the different special effects all at the same time.



Animation

Animations are a series of frames that can play back a small sequence. Video sequences can be used or more traditional animation techniques.This one has 30 frames.




Three Dimensions 3D

A 3d lenticular gives the illusion of depth and is very effective at showing
form and volume in a flat print. Great for eye candy as well as serious presentations.3d Flip images can be produced too. The Tubular Bells 3d image was made for a CD insert



Morph

A lenticular playback on the animation theme - one object can change into another.Here Frederick Soddy, Nobel Peace prize winner is morphed from a young man to old man. Client: Eastbourne college for boys.

Zoom

A Zoom lenticular playback on the animation theme - one object can change into another. Needs careful artwork to create a smooth zoom. This image was shot by Ulf Mark Pederson for a gallery series of lenticulars we produced for him.
