Nat, our Creative Director, chats about his favourite Digital Menu Board project of late.
Favourite Digital Menu Board project?
Probably when we designed and animated Subway's Digital Menu Boards.
Explain a little bit about it.
We got to work with Subway Head Office to plan out how to turn their static menus into animated digital panels. We also created lots of animations that could play on screens around the menus to promote other items. There were different layouts, depending on how much space the stores had, along with differences between Australia and New Zealand stores.
We also created a web portal so stores could put in custom pricing and it would automatically update on the screens. This was cool, but took a bit of effort to get it working seamlessly. Designing animated menus for digital panels is always fun as it's really a new medium, and you're always experimenting to give the customer the best experience.
Enjoyed it?
It was fun to be able to design something and then go down to my local Subway and see my work in the real world.

Our Creative Director, Nat, says animated content is vital on Digital Menu Boards as it gets your customers attention and helps you stand out from your competitors.

Imagine being a store owner and updating your pricing instantly to suit your franchise, without having to recreate content / videos.
We designed this Dynamic Pricing Portal for @subway_australia initially, as their head office needed a way to manage the nation-wide content while allowing stores to manage their own pricing.

Full-screen takeovers on Digital Menu Boards; somewhat controversial in our industry. When @mcdonalds first deployed their Digital Menu Boards, they made the mistake of having full-screen takeovers on all screens. This meant the menu would disappear as you’re reading it, which can be very frustrating. Full-screen takeovers are perfect for a specials or promo board, while your other screens showcase your menu at all times.

It saddens us to see Digital Menu Boards with all static content. Not utilising the full benefits of your digital screens means you’re not getting the return on investment; a lost opportunity. Static can be a good start, however we recommend integrating a mix of static and animated content to get the greatest impact.

Do you have an extensive menu? Make sure your Digital Menu Boards utilise good design, highlighted call-outs, and animation. This will help keep your menus visually appealing and not overcrowded.
Brio is the perfect example of achieving just that. A progressive wholefood café, their menu covers a long range of healthy eats, drinks, and ‘design your own’ style meals.
We worked with their team to redesign their menu to suit their new array of Digital Menu Boards. Check it out.
