Custom Cutouts & Life-Size Standees in Mississauga & the GTA
Bring your ideas into the room with custom cutouts and life-size standees from MYC Graphics. We create printed displays for events, retail promotions, branded photo opportunities and themed spaces in Mississauga, Toronto and the GTA.
Share your photo, artwork or concept. We can review the design, dimensions, material and support arrangement around where the display will be used.
A themed face-in-hole display creates a shared event photo opportunity.
Make Your Brand Part of the Experience
A standee can introduce a product, bring a character into a display or create a recognizable place for guests to take photos. A clear outline and focused artwork help the design stand out without needing a large footprint.
Start with the role the display needs to play. A photo prop, retail promotion and life-size person cutout have different layout and support requirements. Planning the purpose first helps establish the right format.
Life-Size Photo Cutouts
Turn a suitable photograph or illustration into a shaped display. Review the subject, final dimensions and image quality before artwork is prepared for production.
Branded Promotional Standees
Create a display around a product, campaign or brand character. Keep the message focused and consider how the outline will look from the main viewing direction.
Face-in-Hole Photo Boards
Build a photo opportunity around an event theme. Opening positions, dimensions and the overall layout should suit the intended audience and display setting.
Cutout and Event Display Examples
These past event displays show different themes and photo-board formats. Your project’s dimensions, artwork and support details will be confirmed separately.
A music-themed character board with a face opening.
A colourful character display with multiple face openings.
A festive photo board with snowman, Santa and reindeer characters.
Prepare the Artwork for the Final Size
For photo cutouts, send the original image at the highest quality available. An image that looks clear on a phone may show softness when enlarged, so it should be reviewed at the intended print size.
For branded artwork, include your logo files, colour references and any required wording. Confirm the cut outline, face openings and placement of important details before approval. Our graphic design team can help develop the layout, while our large format printing services support the finished display.
Your Project Checklist
- Concept, photo or artwork
- Final height and width
- Quantity
- Indoor or outdoor location
- Base or support requirements
- Event date and transport needs
Choose Materials and Supports Around the Location
Material selection should reflect the size, shape and intended use of the display. A short-term indoor photo board and an exposed outdoor standee can require different approaches.
Tell us about the venue, available floor space and how long the display will remain in use. Discuss the support arrangement, assembly and any handling or storage requirements before the order is finalized. Confirm the included components in the quotation.
For outdoor projects, suitability depends on the selected material, finish and support system. Share the actual exposure and site conditions rather than assuming every standee has the same weather resistance.
From Concept to Finished Display
- Share the brief. Send your idea, dimensions, quantity, location and required date.
- Review the format. Discuss the artwork, cut shape, material and support requirements.
- Approve production details. Check the proof, wording, proportions, openings and final specifications.
- Plan handover and setup. Confirm collection or delivery, transport dimensions and assembly requirements.
Planning a larger event setup? Coordinate your standees with event signage, stand-up displays and trade show displays for a consistent presentation.
Cutouts & Life-Size Standees FAQs
What types of custom cutouts and standees can I request?
Projects can include life-size photo cutouts, shaped promotional displays and face-in-hole photo boards. Share the concept, intended use and dimensions so the artwork, material and support requirements can be reviewed.
Can you create a life-size cutout from a photograph?
A photograph can be reviewed for a life-size design. Image quality, the subject’s outline and the intended print dimensions affect the result. Send the original image at the highest quality available rather than a compressed screenshot.
Can you help design the standee artwork?
Yes. MYC Graphics can help develop or adapt artwork around your logo, theme and message. Provide your brand files, reference images and the details you want included so the layout can be prepared for review.
What sizes and shapes are available?
Custom dimensions and outlines can be discussed for your project. Confirm the final height, width, cut shape and any face openings before production. Doorways, transport and the available display space should also be considered.
How do the displays stand up?
The support approach depends on the display’s size, shape, material and location. Discuss the appropriate base, backing or stand arrangement at the quotation stage and confirm which components are included.
Can cutouts and standees be used outdoors?
Outdoor use requires a suitable material, finish and support arrangement for the actual setting. Tell us about the location, exposure and intended duration so suitability and any handling limitations can be reviewed. Do not assume an indoor display is suitable outdoors.
What information is needed for a quote?
Send your concept or artwork, quantity, approximate dimensions, display location and required date. Include whether it is a photo cutout, promotional standee or face-in-hole board, along with any assembly or transport requirements.
How long does production take?
Production timing depends on artwork readiness, quantity, size, material and finishing requirements. Include your event date with the enquiry and confirm the schedule after the artwork and specifications are approved.
