I had to put up a display in the northwest part of Mother of Rivers a few days ago, so I made a plan to get this thing done. I spent a few hours checking out what kind of structure I could use for this, and it turns out an advertising totem would do the job.
I got on this right away. I started by sketching out a few designs on my notebook, trying to picture how this thing would look. After a couple of rough drafts, I picked one that I thought was pretty neat and would catch people’s eyes.
With the design settled, I started gathering the materials. I needed something sturdy for the frame, so I went with some metal poles I found at a local hardware store. For the display part, I thought digital screens would be cool, you know, to show some flashy ads and videos. I ordered a few high-quality screens online, making sure they were bright enough to be seen under the sunlight.
Next up was the assembly. I’m no handyman, but I’m pretty good at following instructions. I laid out all the parts in my backyard and started putting the frame together. It was a bit of a workout, lifting and connecting those metal poles, but I managed. Once the frame was standing tall, I moved on to installing the screens.
This part was a little tricky. I had to make sure the screens were securely attached and that all the wiring was done correctly. I connected the screens to a small computer I had set up to run the ads. After a few hours of fiddling with wires and settings, everything was in place and working fine.
Then came the software side of things. I had to make sure the content would loop correctly and look good on the screens. I spent an evening tweaking the settings and making sure the videos and images were displaying properly. It took some trial and error, but eventually, I had a smooth, eye-catching loop of ads ready to go.
Now, the real test was setting it up at the actual location. I packed everything into my van, drove to the northwest part of Mother of Rivers, and found the spot I had picked out earlier. It was a busy area with a lot of foot traffic, just what I needed.
Setting up the totem there took another couple of hours. I had to make sure it was stable and wouldn’t fall over, so I anchored it securely to the ground. Once everything was set, I powered it up and watched as the screens came to life. People started noticing it right away, stopping to watch the ads and even taking pictures. It was a real proud moment, seeing my hard work pay off like that.
In the end, this whole totem thing was a bit of an adventure. I learned a lot about designing, assembling, and setting up something like this from scratch. It wasn’t always easy, but I have to say, it was pretty satisfying to see the final product in action, doing exactly what I hoped it would do.
