rusty Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 sorry to clog up your chat room with non-technicians, but I know nothing about AV hence why I just pay you guys to do it and keep out your way. Some one has approched me about doing an outdoor cinema to show local film makers and I dont understant the logistics are there hire companies that do the whole thing......

James Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 rusty, in order to answer the question can we ask a couple of questions. 1) Is this a perminant or tempory instalation2) What format are the local films going to be delivered / submitted on (Video / film) (DV, SP, Digi/8, 16, 35...) Or worse a mix...)3) What format sound are you attempting to deliver (Mono, Stereo, DD, DTS...)4) How big an area needs covering. 5) What time of day (daylight / night) James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_blue_rhino Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Dusk, is still pritty bright and you have to think where the sun will be, and were is is going. the orintaion matters. you can't have the screen infront of the sun (west) as it will blind the viewers and you can't place it east because the sun will wash out the screen, so I would suggest that the screen is on the north side to best avoid the probles, I would also suggest that the project is greater than 5000 lumens (if you can go for 10000) have a look at the barco range. With the PA I would proberbly go for a bit more (eg 3k to 5k) if it have to cover 1500 people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jivemaster Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 The apparent screen brightness is very dependant on the surrounding ambient light. Wait till sunset +30 mins at least, keep all stray light out of the screen area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
