Creating Eye-Catching LED Sign Ads: A Quick Guide

Welcome to the world of LED sign advertising! In this quick and easy guide, we'll show you how to design compelling ads for your LED sign, step by step. We've also thrown in some short video tutorials to make your journey even smoother. So, without further ado, let's dive in.

Step 1: Calculate the Aspect Ratio

Every LED sign comes in different sizes, and to make sure your message fits perfectly, it's essential to match the size of your images and videos to the actual layout of the sign. Here’s how to calculate the aspect ratio:

• Option A: Calculate the Aspect Ratio Mathematically

To calculate the aspect ratio of your sign, you’ll need to know the resolution per module (which you can find in the sign’s technical specs). Then, use these formulas:

• Option B: Non-Mathematical Method (Recommended)

If you want to skip the math, just go to the product page and check the Technical specifications. This will show the total pixel height and width of the sign.

Step 2: Change the Background Color

• Your background sets the stage for your message. But here's a design tip: avoid plain white backgrounds. Instead, opt for colors that complement your brand. Pick shades that convey your message effectively.
  

Step 3: Add Short Text

• Short and sweet is the name of the game. Limit your text to no more than seven words per line and a maximum of five words in every line. Your audience is on the move, so make every word count.
  

Step 4: How to Upload Images and Videos

• If you've got a logo, just drag and drop it into your ad. Your logo is your brand's identity, so make sure it's prominently displayed.
  

Step 5: How to Use Stock Images

• Visuals are a powerful tool. Use images from the library that resonate with your message. Be it products, smiling faces, or captivating landscapes, choose images that speak to your audience.
  

Step 6: Transition Effects - Let Words Dance

• Make your words come alive with transition effects. A little movement can catch more eyes. Experiment with various transitions to find the one that suits your message.
  

Step 7: Rinse and Repeat

• Consistency is key for message retention. Use the same colors, fonts, and design elements across your ads. When your audience sees your ad, they should instantly recognize your brand.
  

Step 8: Export Your Masterpiece

• Once you're satisfied with your ad, it's time to export it. Download the video, and you're one step closer to sharing your message with the world.
