Sprocket, the giant robot, just won Signs of the Times Magazine 2022 International Sign Contest Best of Show award. This was an exciting project to be a part of and is an amazing honor. Our vision for the Sprockets sign was to create a robot that would leave an impression, encourage people to take photos, and become a local icon. I think we achieved that and way more!! It was a pleasure to collaborate with Dan Sawatzky from Imagination Corporation and Sprockets Fun Foundry on this one of kind project.

Our September issue is now live at signsofthetimes.com/digimag.

Find out who received top honors in the 2022 Sign Contest, brush up on the good and not-so-good things about crane truck installations, get advice from our expert columnists and Brain Squad, plus more.

This cover features “Sprocket” by Imagination Corporation, Best of Show honoree and first-place winner of the Best In-House Design and Fabrication, Non-Illuminated category.

Congratulations to the creatives behind all 15 winning projects!

Here is another vehicle wrap that I did for a local Radio Station. I do much more than vehicle wraps, but they sure are eye candy.

I always love working with Lia Green on projects for New Rushmore Radio. Here is the latest creation from our design studios. We designed the new Mix 93.9 logo and branding, and designed and produced the new vehicle wrap. It turned out great.
