Project Of The Week

This week we found ourselves working with a customer on their golf cart graphic project.  This particular cart is used at local sporting events to carry and vend their products.  Smoothie King wanted to get a wrap done on the cart to represent their business, and enhance their visual presence at the events they will be attending.

Last week we received the opportunity to be a part of a custom wrap install on a 24’ box truck for Nike.  They are going to be using this truck for promotional efforts at high school football camps across Tennessee. When the truck came to us it was solid white.  We received the graphics direct from Nike, and the mockup files showed the truck to be all black; from the box, the cab, to all the aluminum trim.  We were supplied with the digitally printed panels, and the black wrap cast vinyl to cover all the trim areas.

This week we finished up a custom camo wrap on a late model dodge pickup truck.  The customers first approached us for a quote to re-wrap their car after having it done several years ago. They expressed their discontent with the original installation, and wanted it done right this time.  They also weren’t that excited about the matte finish that usually comes standard on the camo wrap kits.  We work directly with Mossy Oak to obtain their licensed patterns, and they were kind enough to oblige our request for a glossy finish vinyl.  After deciding on the Mossy oak Brush pattern, we placed the order for the HD printed kit direct, and received it shortly after.

Recently we were approached about fabricating a custom bronze plaque for a customer looking to display their family crest front and center on one of the pillars of their driveway entrance. The client provided us with some pictures off the internet he had found, and some background on their concept.  The family, of Latin and Lithuanian decent, wanted to represent both lineages appropriately.  We reviewed the artwork- what seemed to be a hand drawn picture found off google, and began tracing and converting the image to vector format.

We've recently had the opportunity to work with contractors on the renovation of Middle TN McDonald's restaurants.  We were approached as a resource to use our large format printing capabilities to print and manufacture the wall coverings that would be displayed in their newly refurbished restaurant interiors.  As a result of the higher humidity levels often experienced in our Southeast region, we used a micro-venting technology to create many evenly spaced small holes in the graphics as a means of helping to prevent mold and mildew. 

This week’s project is very cool.  Rolling Video Games is a company that offers mobile gaming for parties, events, etc.  We were approached to help them with their signage for their locations, and mobile arcades.  We had an idea for a dimensional logo sign, but wanted to utilize the influences of the gaming industry, and the culture behind it.  Armed with their logo in vector format, we began looking at how to stack the look of the logo sign, giving it depth, and a sense of professionalism.  

This is the first post to a blog we intend to use as a means of highlighting some of our favorite custom sign and graphics projects.  We hope you'll find it both interesting and educational regarding our services and capabilities in the area of custom commercial signage.
