Hollywood-Inspired Business Cards

We frequently get requests for business cards seen in various movies. Here are a few, and we can add to this if you have seen others you'd like to emulate! Please remember that if you like the style but not the colors or layout, we can usually make any of the changes you require. Just let me know!

Email me with your name, address, phone, and what you would like printed on the card, to get your order started:

And if you're not sure what the print style and stock descriptions mean, remember that I have samples I can send — make sure you know what you are getting BEFORE you order! :)

QUICK CLICKS:

OCEAN'S 11

This understated-but-elegant calling card was handed out by Daniel "Danny" Ocean (George Clooney) in the movie "Ocean's Eleven". The border is blind-embossed onto white linen card stock and the name is printed in shiny black raised ink or foil-embossed (in the movie the name is foil-embossed). Very slick. If you choose printing on the back, it will be printed in FLAT ink only.

 

A note about foil printing: in a box of cards, sometimes foil will rub onto parts of the the card in front of it, especially during shipping. We recommend that you don’t keep them stored in a spot that gets shuffled around. Keep tissue between their cards. A quick brush with an eraser will take it off.

 

If you want to take out the border altogether for a more contemporary look, let me know. See this page for an illustration of the different printing types.

HITCH

We have currently discontinued our 2x2 card line. Right now our presses are requiring dies for these and the price has doubled. We will continue to try to find a provider for these and we do I will add them again to this site. Thank you for your patience!

 

For the back I chose 'HandScript', plus I slanted it a little more—I wanted one that looked more natural, and I'm also showing how it looks as more than one line of text). We have lots of handwriting fonts from which to choose or you can supply a high-resolution image of your info in your own handwriting.

MEN IN BLACK (MIB)

We love the intriguingly simple card design that Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones) hands to the baffled James Edwards ( later "Agent J" played by Will Smith), in the movie "Men In Black". A 130# ultimate white Strathmore card uses matte black ink on an embossed monogram in the middle of one side of the card. On the other side of the card Kay has scribbled an address—so we though it would be fun to add your contact information in a flat-ink handwriting font. The ink on front/back doesn't have to be black. If you want raised ink on the front instead of embossed ink the price comes down dramatically (I can add the logo on the back in a light shade of black so you can still see it on the reverse; either backwards in keeping with the embossed look, or so it reads correctly). OR if you want it just embossed with no black on the front, the price will be a little lower. Note that we won't print it with the "MiB" as shown here, because that is a copyrighted logo. Even if those are your initials, we would need to change the look.

MEAN GIRLS - KEVIN GNAPOOR

This one just makes us laugh — what a fun statement! Feel free to change the font (we didn't have the exact fonts use in the movie's card, but chose some that kept the mood of the card) and/or any of the wording (not a bad-ass MC or math enthusiast? Maybe you're a bad-ass something else?) We print with raised black ink. Other standard inks are Gray, Brown, Burgundy, Red, Reflex Blue, Dark Blue, Light Blue, Teal, and Green.

Looking for the one from the 2024 film? That would be a full-color process item with a QR code and we can do it! Email me for pricing (starts at about $42.40).

AMERICAN PSYCHO

Who has the best business card? You will! In American Psycho, Patrick Bateman and his colleagues compare business cards in a scene full of rivalry and card envy. This card is our version of the best of their designs. We've selected the "tasteful thickness" of a Strathmore Ultimate White Wove (slightly bone colored). And the lettering is something called Silian Rail. Some of the cards have thermography-raised ink; but if you really want to make them sweat, ours are engraved. We also sell card holders similar to the one Bateman uses — see below!

Our price*:

On 130# Strathmore Ultimate White Wove:
Engraved Ink*: (contact me for pricing)

On 100# White or Warm White Linen:
Engraved Ink*: (contact me for pricing)

 

Shipping will be added. Turnaround time for thermography is 2-4 business days plus shipping. Turnaround time for engraving is approx. 8-10 business days plus shipping time and we will not rush them.

Engraving is generally the most formal printing option. The image is etched into a metal plate (the plate is engraved, not the cards), and the ink held in the etched grooves is applied to the paper with a press. The resulting raised image is comprised entirely of ink sitting on the surface of the paper. The ink applied is opaque, making it possible to print a lighter colored ink on a darker colored paper with this method.

Our version:

THE STEVE MARTIN

Isn't this great? What a fun twist on a calling card. We can reword it to say whatever you like, and can add your scanned signature at the bottom — or you can personally sign each card as you hand them out.

Our price*:

Black raised ink on 80# Warm White Linen (NAV BC-C2-NS24):
500 @ $79.34 / 1000 @ $86.36

*2024 prices. Shipping will be added.

++ Please note that the pricing can change without notice because when you order your cards I need to check with my paper supplier to be sure THEIR pricing hasn't changed. I will do my best to update the pricing here whenever I find out that there is a change. Also, we are in no way willing to risk copyright infringement — these are cards that have inspired our customers, and we will use YOUR information and YOUR logos; we will not use the information, names, or logos from the movies.
