Digital out-of-home screens demand creative that works differently to print. Viewed at a distance, in motion, in bright or variable light conditions, and often in environments where attention is split — the design has to communicate almost instantly or not at all.
DOOH creative design produces visuals built for that challenge. Bold, simple, and designed with the specific screen format and environment in mind — so your message cuts through in the seconds available, and leaves an impression that lasts longer than the moment of exposure.
DOOH creative design is the creation of artwork specifically for digital out-of-home screens. These designs must communicate effectively at large scale, from a distance, in high-ambient-light environments, and often within a few seconds of viewing time. The creative is designed with those conditions in mind and delivered in the technical formats and dimensions required by each screen operator.
You need this when your packaging is due for a redesign, when customer feedback or product reviews suggest that the unboxing or presentation experience is falling short, or when your current packaging doesn’t adequately represent the quality of what’s inside. Packaging is often the first physical interaction a customer has with your brand and it shapes perception before the product has even been experienced.
This service includes a structural and visual design process for the packaging, covering briefing, concept development, material and finish specification, print-ready artwork and production management. May include unboxing experience design. Delivered as a finished packaging design with print-ready files and production specification.
Most marketing companies focus on channels and tactics.
We focus on reaction.
Before selecting platforms, formats, or media spend, we define how your audience thinks, feels, and decides. We use behavioural psychology to understand what will capture attention, build trust, and motivate action — then choose the channels that best support that outcome.
Every channel we use has a clear purpose, a defined role, and a measurable objective. Nothing is done “because it’s popular” or “because it’s expected”.
The result is marketing that feels natural to engage with, works across multiple channels, and is designed to deliver meaningful, long-term results.
Want to see how this approach works in practice?
The creation of visual advertising content specifically designed for digital out-of-home screens — accounting for scale, viewing distance, ambient environment and content constraints to communicate a single, clear message with immediate impact.
DOOH creative is viewed at distance and in motion, often in high-ambient-light environments. It must communicate its entire message in one to three seconds, without the benefit of a viewer’s focused attention.
Maximum of seven words of copy, high contrast between text and background, a single dominant image or visual element, large typography and a clear, visible brand identity. Simplicity is a functional requirement in DOOH, not just a stylistic preference.
This varies by screen operator and format. Common specifications require high-resolution JPG or PNG files, or MP4 for motion content, at specific pixel dimensions set by the media owner. Specifications should be confirmed before design begins.
When the screen accepts motion content and when motion adds genuine impact to the message. A loop time of three to ten seconds is standard. Motion should communicate something that static cannot rather than movement for its own sake.
Yes. Programmatic DOOH platforms allow creative elements to be updated automatically based on real-time triggers such as weather, time of day or live data. This requires creative to be designed in modular, data-ready formats.
By viewing the artwork on a calibrated monitor at an appropriate simulation of the viewing distance. Creative that reads well on a desktop screen may not communicate effectively on a large outdoor display.
A URL only if it’s very short and memorable. A QR code only if the location and placement allow viewers to stop and scan it comfortably. On a roadside billboard, neither is practical. On a shopping centre screen with dwell time, a QR code can generate meaningful scans.
Creative fatigue in outdoor advertising develops more slowly than in digital. However, a creative refresh every four to eight weeks maintains relevance, particularly for promotional or time-sensitive campaigns.
The brand logo, the brand’s primary colour and the key message or offer. Everything else is optional and should only be included if it genuinely adds to the impact of the communication.
