Photo overlays are used to show how the sign will look, using before and after photos. The example below shows the original Husky pylon sign, and the proposed render showing how it will look with the new CO-OP signage installed.
It is very important to show the scale of the sign to the photo as accurately as possible. In the case below, there is an existing sign so it is relatively easy if we have a few measurements. If there isn’t an existing sign, it can make accurate scaling difficult.
We often do initial drawings without a site survey. In these cases, adjustments should be done when the survey does come in to accurately reflect the survey sizes and proposed render.
