Electric Sign Estimators


Learn the art and science of approaching a sign design project from the read-point perspective of the viewer.

Learn the psychographic reasons for proper sign design and how it affects the
functionality, readability and
effectiveness when viewed from a moving car. 

What are the optimum letter styles, text heights, color contrasts and layouts to use? And the message... what is it trying to say?... can the sign, with that huge word salad the client asked for, effectively communicate two complete thoughts in 3 seconds?






Fabrication and Tech Files 
Designers learn not only the mechanical parts and pieces of electric and architectural signage, but they also learn how to see through solid objects with their mind's-eye, so that shop files and section views become second nature.

Designers take with them the tools and vector-graphic assets that they can use immediately, to use for providing the technical section views discussed in class, for editing as needed, or for use as-is on their design pages... immediately.
