Clear communication

Welcoming, clear and accessible messages

Content should be concise, appropriate for a public facility setting and designed so it can be understood quickly on screen by a broad audience.

Please note: final approval depends on suitability, available space, timing, accessibility and alignment with the purpose of the digital display program.

Accessible by design

Clear messages help more people access the information being shared.

Accessibility

Creating content that is easier to see and understand

Digital display content should be simple, legible and easy to understand within a few seconds. When submitting material, keep these accessibility principles in mind.

Keep text concise

Focus on the essential message rather than long paragraphs.

Use strong contrast

Text should stand clearly against the background.

Use large, readable text

Avoid small type or information that depends on fine detail.

Do not rely on colour alone

Important meaning should also be communicated through text or symbols.

Caption video content

Any video supplied for display should include captions.

Keep essential information visible

Do not make a QR code the only way to access key event details.
