One option would be to rent higher gain screens, especially because with 3 9x12's edge to edge, you could afford more of an acute viewing angle (with a high gain screen the brightness of the image increases to those seated in the center, and diminishes for those seated at the outside). |

I think Brad has the right idea. Start with controlling the source of the light, and then use pipe and drape to isolate the screens if using P&D on the source wasn't enough. Mac |

If you can tell us what you are trying to do then maybe there are some other options to explore. |

Can you shoot this from the front? Ken |

The front is even brighter as the area in front is lit for TV. The powers that be have decided to wait until we can afford the 10k's that should be bright enough with out blocking the light so I guess this has been an exercise in learning. Philip |

The seating on the stage is unusual, it just was the most convenient image I could find on the web. The back of the stage will be empty when this is used. Just a band, (2-3 vocals, guitar, bass, misc percussion, piano, no drum set) or a single presenter in front. The screens will be projecting one wide image, that will be used as a backdrop, I'm guessing mostly kind of abstract stuff. I'm just the tech guy and not the graphics guy. The audience is not expected to have to read off these screens. Based on light meter measurements of around 100 lux on the back on the screen during the afternoon I calculated that a 10k projector would give about 10:1 contrast, I also mocked up the same brightness with a smaller projector on a fraction of the screen with good results. Program is late morning so that should help a bit also. Thinking abit more about the pipe and drape: it appears that Rosebrand makes this, who are the other major players who have good prices? |
