What you get
It started as a wrap gift.
Nick wanted a custom slate for a production and nothing out there felt personal or well made, so he and Amanda made their own — then sixteen more as wrap gifts for the directors, and fifty-odd more for the rest of the crew. People kept asking. That's still the point: a piece of gear they'll use on the next job and keep on the shelf after. Cast acrylic, laser, hand-filled paint, human eyes on every one.
Gifting made easy
Gifting a filmmaker? We'll nail the details.
Tell us who it's for and what they shoot; we'll lay out their name and title, match the look to their work, and send you a proof before anything gets cut. Nobody has to spoil the surprise.
Their name in the first frame of every take.
Not a mug. Not a hoodie. A tool they'll hold up in front of the camera on every shoot for years.
Order. Send. Approve. We do the rest.
Three quick steps on your side. A proof lands in your inbox before anything gets made.
Laser engraved or UV printed
Which finish suits your artwork?
Its own listing — our classic engraved finish
Best for bold logos, clean line art, text, and simple graphic designs.
Laser engraving physically etches the design into the acrylic, giving it a permanent, tactile finish with the traditional look and feel of a professional film slate. For most production logos and slate designs, this is the option we recommend.
Best for
- Logos and production company marks
- Black-and-white artwork
- Bold line art and typography
- Simple, high-contrast graphics
- A classic, engraved film-slate look
This slate
UV printing is ideal when your artwork depends on color, gradients, photographic detail, or very fine elements that are meant to remain exactly as they appear in the original file.
Best for
- Full-color logos
- Photography
- Gradients and shading
- Highly detailed illustrations
- Artwork where specific colors are important
Top sticks
Two ways to top it off.
Both come attached and ready to clap. Standard sticks are built tough and precise; premium walnut adds a rich, timeless look for the shelf between shoots.

How long does it take?
Your design proof is usually ready in 24–48 hours. Once you approve it, the slate ships the following day from Los Angeles. Choose expedited shipping at checkout if you're on a deadline.
Where do I send logos and names?
Email everything to Orders@scorchedlaserworks.com after you order. Highest resolution you have; vector (AI, SVG, EPS, PDF) is best. Use Dropbox, Drive or WeTransfer so your mail client doesn't compress it.
What artwork prints best?
Anything. UV printing reproduces full-colour logos, posters, photos and gradients exactly as they are in your file. Send the highest resolution you have; vector (AI, SVG, EPS, PDF) is ideal.
My logo is full color. Which finish?
UV Printed. It reproduces color photos, posters and gradients vibrantly and durably. Multi-color engraving exists but is limited, so UV is the safe call.
What's included?
The complete slate: 1/8" white acrylic board with your artwork reverse UV printed under the surface, with the top sticks you choose attached and ready to clap.
Can I buy this as a gift?
Yes. Most of our slates are gifts. Tell us who it's for and what they shoot, and we'll help with names, titles and layout discreetly — the proof comes to you, not to them.
Returns?
Custom pieces can't be returned, but we stand behind every slate. If something's off, we keep working until you're happy.
Give them the slate shot.
