The two figures and lines are all black however, you can see that they are two people crossing a street. The use of the yellow background is a very effective color because it pops out at the driver so they can notice the sign. The sign is very effective in saying caution, people are crossing.Saturday, March 6, 2010

This well known sign of school crossing is a good example of a silhouette.

A silhouette like this makes it very easy for a driver to see and understand a sign while not losing focus of the road.
ReplyDeleteAlthough the color of yellow represents happiness, it also represents warning too. The use of color yellow as a background is great show for people to notice and also black contrast the background which it also noticeable. I also like the like how they drew the line on the side of the whole shape with using the color of black. I thought this made the sign more focused and easy for people to understand.
