    is there 2 projectors just becouse of the 3D effect ?

    Or can the same light effects be done with just 1 projector?

    It was really cool, but is it not just some 3D video effects that can be done with whatever projector you have (if it got the lumen you need)




    I like it

    I understand
    Do there exists some videos somewhere that we can download to make some of this 3D effects on my own house ?


    Here is some pictures of me and my "drive-in" I did many years ago:

    And to make some "ok" effects on a small house should not be any problem if we just had the videos\software...

    We get similar brightness using three 4500 lumen projectors- with careful alignment you of course get the same results, and it's a bit more flexible when you're indoors and don't need UBER BRIGHTNESS- you can use them as "super gobo programmable spotlights" :-)

    You can rent 15k lumen projectors pretty cheaply, too.

    If you want to project at an angle and do surface correction (handy when going guerilla) then using some software that supports multiprojection is good. As I've said before, I use Modul8- other VJ software is clown shoes in comparison!
