Signage

Test Track

Disney’s EPCOT

created the operational signage package for the Test Track attraction at EPCOT, emphasizing metallic paint and translucent acrylic to align with the automotive industry theme. I incorporated futuristic typefaces inspired by Chevrolet’s design process to enhance the technological aspect of the experience.

Here’s a behind-the-scenes story of how I navigated the design challenges while pioneering the use of 3M Controltac with blacklight ink for the SimCar graphics, making it the first attraction vehicle to feature this technology back in 2012.

To my surprise, Disney had no available architectural drawings of the attraction vehicle for reference that I could find in archives. This required some out-of-the-box thinking and a return to traditional methods. With scissors, tacky transfer paper, and a pencil, I ventured into the mechanical body shop to create a template.

After hand-illustrating the graphics directly onto the attraction vehicle using tacky transfer paper, I ensured easy removal and placement onto paper for digital scanning. Securing access to a large-scale format scanner at the WDI office, I scanned the hand-illustrated graphics to begin the digitalization process. I brought the template patterns into both Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator to create the artwork in color.

Another challenge was achieving the right color blue for the graphics. Given that the attraction vehicle transitions between indoor and outdoor environments during the ride, it was crucial for the blue hue to remain consistent throughout.

This necessitated experimentation with digital print test samples to ensure the blue hue was accurate in both daylight and under blacklight conditions. To achieve this, I required access to a black light room to fine-tune the color and ensure it met the desired specifications.

This experience exemplifies that innovation thrives on passion, experimentation, resilience, and continuous learning. As Walt Disney famously said, “All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them,” and “It’s kind of fun to do the impossible.”
