Studio Work: Neon Light Test






I tried testing the Neon Light that I had ordered following a group critique, where they suggested I try branding or sale devices like neon lights with my name on.

I printed out my name's letters as a guideline for the light, but the neon strip was too short so I decided to make the word 'SALE' instead.

Reflection & future development:
  • The 3 meter red neon strip was too short to make the full word, unless I made it smaller. Also using sellotape looked unsightly and will therefore need to put it through acrylic /perspex next time. 
  • This didn't measure up at all to the ones I saw in the Saatchi Gallery shop and therefore, this will take more time and more money to perfect. 
  • Video research: How to make a neon sign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rffwcHst1So 
  • after watching the video , it is quite labour intensive and I think i may have to consider outsourcing it.
