Signal ideas: How I want them to look
Initially I wanted to have it be similar to the spells cast by the sorcerers in the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) but i will now attempt to go more simple in design and if i have time i make them more complex.
I still plan to use the Basic symbols for them.
Stop:
The use of recognisable symbols (universal) allow for people who lack understanding of a language or cant hear.
As for colours the colour palette relies on 2 things. basic principle of colour use (Red - Stop, Green - Go) and Colour Theory
Don't think a pole on the sign is necessary!
Clink:
A simple design of text that can be done in either photoshop or maya, depending if i want it to be 3D or not.
Go Signal:
For the Go Symbol, other than a simple sign similar to the "Stop", the use of a hand signal allows for a variety but it means also having to switch the stop effect!
Go Sign:
The Alternative is to go to using the simple sign approach of the stop sign for the go signal as it keeps it in the same design as the stop sign so can easily be linked between the 2.
I am leaning towards the hand signal but it ultimately comes down to how quickly & effectively I can model a hand for it to look functional.
Ripple:
The Ripple effect around the signs is inspired by most pings signals in games specifically the one from League of Legends, which has a miniature ripple under the symbol.
