It was enchanting! But I've always been too paranoid to use front projection -- in many venues it's just not possible to protect the equipment from curious little audience hands (and vice versa). Regards, Diane http://www.freshwaterpearlspuppetry.com | >One other thing I haven't mentioned is that I'm also going to be using | >a digital projector with video for this show | | >Diane | |Then let me mention another technique I saw used by Hobey Ford of |Golden Rod Puppets. He used a slide projector in front, to project |scenery onto the front of the shadow screen. He had another light |behind for his shadow puppets. He controlled two dimmers to fade |between the two, and to adjust the balance of light. However, it may |only be necessary to control the back light to prevent totally |washing out the projected image. | | |Joe Dunfee joe-AT-dunfee.com |Gordonville, Pennsylvania, U.S.A. | |_______________________________________________ |List address: puptcrit-AT-lists.driftline.org |Admin interface: http://lists.driftline.org/listinfo.cgi/puptcrit-driftline.org |Archives: http://www.driftline.org | _______________________________________________ List address: puptcrit-AT-lists.driftline.org Admin interface: http://lists.driftline.org/listinfo.cgi/puptcrit-driftline.org Archives: http://www.driftline.org
