Thanks, the best thing is you can change it to anything that you can dream up without having to pick up a real paintbrush!That's a pretty cool concept.
Thanks for sharing.
I think they do, pretty impossible not to. None the less, it is very cool.I love that. How do you have your projector positioned so the guests do not interfere with the image when entering the building?
Yes you are correct. I limited the shadowing by placing the projector as high up as practical. It was about 9 feet above the ground. In addition, the video mask does not allow projection on the doors so there is nothing to block there. The doors are lit by a green led from above. This pretty much eliminates shadowing if you approach directly in front of the doors. We had the Que line stop about 50 feet from the doors so you got a good resolution view before approaching. When you are standing close to the projection the pixels are about 2 inches square so res is low.While the only way to keep people from interfering with the illusion is rear projection, there are ways to limit it. Angle of the projection, and limiting access to the path that the projection travels can really help. The higher you have the projector, the closer people' can get before the enter the light path for the projection.
Oh trust me, I know about seeing large pixles when up close. I e been doing full house (600 inch diagonal) projections for a few years.Yes you are correct.

If you check out the video clip at the end of my original post you will see the masking. This is a cut from the actual DVD I was using, just lower res version and shorter.
