Unusual projection problem

[Dschutt]

My boss came up with an idea the other day. He would like to project "Welcome to" on the steel portion of this bridge. West facing location. Projector, pin spot w/ gobo? City wont allow a banner. Any ideas appreciated.View attachment 17259

Little Rock AR. Projects different colors onto several bridges useing lasers or led. No message just coloring the bridge. You may be able to google pics

Hi Ricky,
The Ovation E260-WW IP is designed for just this sort of application. Ask your local Dealer or Rep for a demo.
One note... any fixture this bright is not going to do well with a transparency gobo. It will melt. You will want to use a steel gobo.
Appollo 3303 is a standard (cheap) gobo which says "WELCOME", but I'm not aware of any standard gobo which says "Welcome To".

Maybe I missed it, but is there anyway to correct keystoning, or blades to control the light?

A laser projector, like something from Pangolin, is an excellent idea that I hadn't thought of...

There are standard shutters, but keystoning would need to be addressed in the Gobo design.
This is basically an Outdoor rated LED elipsoidal.

Could you point me to a tutorial or a formula for calculating keystonning?
