This information was taken from the Rosco Websites 'Techno Notes' to help me understand the basic principles of rear projection. Although I feel like I have a good understanding of what is needed to produce an image on a screen using a back projection (my work placement at Vivid Birmingham allowed me to observe and help with the installation a rather large back projection) I wanted to grasp the simple ideas and hopefully develop a good idea as to how I want my work to be shown. I understand this is quite an early thought for the final installation in September, however I know I'll benefit from experimenting not only with my footage but how I actually want to install the work. They both work hand in hand almost. I want the 'source' of imagery to be hidden to create a grander illusion and transport the viewer with the imagery, not the technology used. My images will be smaller in scale and therefore the throw distance of the camera's will also be an issue as a small image projected can be blurred in it's appearance.
Managed to get my hand on some scrap projection fabric (SO EXPENSIVE!) so I'm planning on creating a small installation using projection for my group crit later this month. EXPERIMENTAL TIMES!
