Get in touchFrequently Asked Questions
What is digital signage?
Digital signage refers to electronic displays (screens or monitors) that show dynamic content like videos, animations, images, and text. Unlike static posters or noticeboards, digital signage can be updated remotely and instantly, allowing you to share timely information, celebrate achievements, and reinforce your brand throughout your school or trust.
Do we need special equipment to use your digital signage services?
You’ll need display screens and a digital signage player or software system to run the content. If you already have screens installed, we can work with your existing setup.
How does this differ from simply displaying PowerPoint slides?
Our bespoke animated content is professionally designed with motion graphics, sophisticated transitions, and high-quality video elements, creating far more engaging experiences than standard presentation software. We ensure content is optimised for screens, brand-consistent, and explicitly designed for viewing from a distance in busy environments.
What’s included in your Digital Signage Design service?
We create custom animated graphics, motion graphics, video content, and visual layouts tailored to your school or trust’s brand. This includes welcome screens, vision and values displays, achievement celebrations, announcements, and event promotions—all designed to your specifications.
How long does it take to create custom content?
Typical turnaround time depends on the complexity and quantity of content required. Simple animated graphics may take 1-2 weeks, while more complex video projects could take 3-4 weeks. We’ll provide a clear timeline during our initial consultation, tailored to your specific needs.
Can you match our school or trust’s branding?
Absolutely. We work closely with you to ensure all content reflects your existing brand guidelines, including colours, fonts, logos, and visual style. Maintaining brand consistency across all your digital displays is a key part of our service.
Can we provide input on the designs?
Yes! We work collaboratively with you throughout the creative process. You’ll have opportunities to review concepts, provide feedback, and request revisions to ensure the final content perfectly represents your vision.
What if we need content in multiple languages?
We can create content in multiple languages to reflect your diverse community. Just let us know your requirements during the planning stage.
How often can we update the content?
As often as you need. We can create content packages that include regular updates—weekly, monthly, or termly—or work on an ad-hoc basis when you need fresh content for specific events or announcements.
What happens if we need urgent content created?
We understand schools and trusts sometimes need content quickly for unexpected events or announcements. Contact us as soon as possible, and we’ll work with you to accommodate urgent requests where feasible. However, please note that rush projects may incur additional fees.
How much does digital signage design cost?
Costs vary based on the complexity of the content, the volume of designs required, and whether you need ongoing support or one-off projects. We can offer tailored packages for individual schools and multi-academy trusts. Contact us for a personalised quote based on your specific requirements.
Is there a minimum commitment?
No. Whether you need a single welcome screen or a comprehensive content package across multiple locations, we’re happy to work with projects of all sizes.
What file formats do you provide?
We deliver content in formats compatible with most digital signage systems, typically including MP4 for video, PNG for static graphics, and other formats as required by your specific platform.
Will the content be compatible with our existing screens?
We design content to match your screen specifications (size, orientation, resolution). Just provide us with your technical requirements, and we’ll ensure everything displays perfectly.
What types of content can we include on our digital signage?
You can include a wide range of content, such as:
- Welcome screens
- Vision and values
- Student and staff achievements
- Trust-wide or school announcements and news
- Open evening promotions
- Alumni updates
- Social media feeds
- Event countdowns and more
