Sign Painters Documentary

Sign painting is dying art. Almost all signage is created by machines these days and use standardized fonts.

"Sign Painters" is a documentary by Faythe Levine and Sam Macon that chronicles the lives and work of a group of sign painters who still do it the "old way". It is also a cautionary tale about what is lost in the technology-driven rush to compete for work.
