Denver Museum Evokes Rockies In Giant Video Wall July 9, 2012 by Super User I did a book recently about MicroTiles projects around the world, and this is easily among my favorites because of the way the design team really played with shape. It has been up for several weeks now but I was waiting for a release and better snappies before writing anything. The new History Colorado Center …
Sightings: Rockin’ Tacos Menu Boards June 27, 2012 by Super User UCView software is driving new menu boards at some place called Rockin’ Tacos in Lost Wages. The creative team can probably save the stamps when it comes to awards, BUT what I like about this can be summed up in one sentence: You could actually read the selections from a distance. I have seen three …
Sightings: Counter Display Scans Pre-made Meals To Show Ingredients, Calories June 26, 2012 by Super User I’ve not seen this before, and think it’s kinda clever in a limited use way. Signio, A Danish digital signage integrator, is working with a food services company, Foodmarket, at Copenhagen’s airport. They have done menu boards, but the interesting bit for me is counter-mounted interactive screens that let people select a sandwich or salad …
Behold, The Meta Twist Tower June 25, 2012 by Super User [youtube id=”cBWUy_LvuTU” width=”600″ height=”350″] So, I’d sum this project up this way: Zum 20-jährigen Geburtstag enthüllt der Flughafen mit Chef Dr. Kerkloh den Meta Twist Tower, eine 41qm große, auseinaderklappbare LED Leinwand, die für News, Werbung und Unterhaltung zum Einsatz kommen soll. Or, better, I’ll paraphrase what OOH-TV kindly puts in English about this new …
Talking Flat Lady Now Yammering Away At Logan June 22, 2012 by Super User Now I know Logan Airport has some people who understand digital signage and what you can do with it (met one), but I also know based on looking over an RFP for Boston’s airport a couple of years ago that any decisions go through a nightmarish run of committees and processes. We took a look …
Video: Coke’s Digital End-Cap In Israel (Don’t Watch With Drink In Mouth) June 22, 2012 by Super User As I have noted lately, video is under-used in marketing for what is a video-based sector. Here’s an example of an Intel-bankrolled video that is some respects does a great job of showing the benefits of digital end-caps – in this case a Coca-Cola end-cap in use in Israel, powered by YCD software. I like …
Sightings: Video Wall In Toronto Union Station June 21, 2012 by Super User At the best of times, Toronto’s Union Station rail hub is a chaotic, decayed mess that is in wild contrast to the skyscrapers a few feet away that command some of the highest commercial leasing costs in the country or continent. A local media company called IMA Outdoor has had the advertising concession in the …
Video: Digital Signage At Rave Cinemas June 21, 2012 by Super User [vimeo id=”43676549″ width=”610″ height=”343″] Following on the MGM Resorts video that explores the digital signage efforts on those properties, here’s the second piece my friends at Studio 10 did on Rave Cinemas, working with Real Digital Media and Christie’s managed serrvices team. This was shot at a Rave movieplex just off Las Vegas Blvd, south …
THIS Is How You Do A Case Study In Digital Signage June 20, 2012 by Super User [vimeo id=”42742334″ width=”610″ height=”260″] This is a video business, so it’s kinda weird how rare it is to see videos done about projects. The video you are going to get off a smartphone or pocket camera will be marginal in quality because of shaky hands and limited mikes, but at least it will start to …
Behold The Fountain Of Content June 19, 2012 by Super User The pix I took of the Arsenal Media booth at InfoComm last week were, well, crap and didn’t do much to give some sense of what they did. But Wendy from Arsenal sent me this great shot taken, I assume, from atop the nearby Christie booth. It is projection mapping on the cube at the …
