Labor

Initial signage uploading and formatting is complimentary, however labor charges may apply if a dedicated technician is needed to make onsite changes or corrections. 

Content Design Best Practices

  • Avoid large regions of white or very light backgrounds as they are very bright, are more revealing of any small imperfections in the LED grid, and can overwhelm other content
  • Use darker, rich colors - the displays support a full spectrum of rich, vibrant color. And deeper tones display more effectively than lighter, pastel-oriented tones.
  • Avoid too much copy
  • Keep the use of static images relatively brief - only present on the display long enough to read a single sentence or two.
  • Break up longer messages. Text should be used sparingly and should be made as bold and easy-to-read as possible. Combining text with illustrative or photographic imagery with a strong focal point is optimal.
  • Avoid single pixel lines.
  • Thin horizontal or vertical lines often have difficulty rendering on LED displays, looking either jagged or disappearing altogether.
  • Use thick dotted lines. If horizontal or vertical lines are a must, it is recommended to use 2-3 pixel wide lines or thicker, or widely spaced dotted lines.

**Please note that the Moscone Center retains the right to display it's own content on digital screens, including but not limited to information, advertising, and sponsorships.
