Short answer: order custom lenticular cards early enough for artwork review, proof approval, production scheduling, and shipping before your artist alley or convention deadline. VANTENZ confirms the timeline before production begins after the design, specifications, and quantity are reviewed.
What affects the timeline?
The schedule depends on the artwork, card size, quantity, proof feedback, and shipping destination. A simple flip card is usually easier to schedule than a more complex 3D card with layered artwork.
Why proofing matters
VANTENZ normally uses a digital proof before production. That means buyers should leave room for review instead of planning as if the first file will always be final.
What to prepare first
- choose flip, transformation, or 3D
- confirm size and quantity
- prepare high-resolution print-ready files
- keep key text and faces inside the safe area
For setup help, review the artwork guide, the safe area and bleed guide, and the frame planning guide.
Plan the handoff from artwork to proof approval
Short answer: work backward from the date you need the cards in hand, and confirm artwork review, proof approval, production, and delivery separately. A production estimate alone is not an arrival date.
Before sending files, use the custom lenticular cards checklist before ordering to collect your size, effect, quantity per design, and artwork notes. Include your delivery destination and event date when asking VANTENZ to confirm timing.
When the digital proof arrives, follow the lenticular card proofing questions to check frame order, viewing direction, alignment, and trim safety before approval. Send any revision notes together so the next review has a clear scope.
