I’m not actually sure this can be classed as ‘environmental projection’, but the projection created a nice looking environment!
Anyway, this is what I did at our carol services this year…
As you can see in the images, our front wall has 5 arches (one with a wooden cross infront)- they actually used to be windows, but years ago we built behind the wall, and they are now filled in.
I created a mask, and edited some videos using the mask, so as to only project video in the arches, it was a great effect and people loved it!
I projected with a 5000 lumen Christie projector from the back of the room, the mask was actually made in OpenOffice Impress (the PowerPoint equivalent), only because I thought it was the quickest and easiest way to draw arches – I created the mask whilst at the church with the projector connected. I then exported the file as a jpeg and used it in Premiere and Photoshop to create the images and videos.
The photos show our usual projection which displayed lyrics, camera and other media during the services.
