Anaheim Hills-based Advent Visual debuts new ad concept

Human Sphere Directional combines aerial, human, mobile marketing.

You know you've seen them: The individuals who stand on the corner waving large arrow signs, directing you to a new restaurant, shop or home development. And Anaheim Hills-based Advent Visual is taking this advertising method to a whole new level with its Human Sphere Directional.

The outdoor marketing company's new attention-getting endeavor combines the traditional human directionals (a person holding a large arrow sign) with aerial spheres (a giant helium balloon). Company President Rick Kagasoff says putting the two together was a "natural evolution."

“It's one of those ‘a-ha’ moments where I realized I had created something innovative for our industry, as well as a fun, new method for our clients to reach their audience,” Kagasoff says.

The Human Sphere Directional features a 6-foot arrow sign, characteristic of the human directional, and a 5-foot extendable helium balloon. The client can choose how to use the attraction, whether it's for branding, messaging or pointing someone along a certain path.
