How to Upload a Face Swap Card

1

Prepare the main artwork

To start we would need two sets of artwork ready to upload, the first being the main artwork. Just like our standard cards you will need to upload a jpg or PNG. If you export using jpg please design in CMYK then export in RGB, 300 DPI. If you’re exporting in PNG, please make sure it’s exported in 300DPI.

Prepare the face image

The second part is a small square image of the face you would like to be used to face swap. This is to demonstrate to the customer which face it will swap with. This doesn’t need to be very high resolution.

Check the bleed area

Once you’ve uploaded the main artwork on this page, please make sure no important details are in or close to the red area. This is the bleed area and will be cut off in production. The only parts which should show in the red areas will be any background colours/images used.

Review the red bleed area before continuing.
