    Zero Latency Video of Conductor

    Alright! That sounds spot on! I turned that gaming mode on but didn't notice any significant improvement. Sounds like manufacturer bullshit! And for me "motion smoothing" is always off! Thanks

    Zero Latency Video of Conductor

    Yes it's a ATEM tv studio HD. The latency in the TV is HUGE maybe because of this particular tv, but you're saying that the SDI ->HDMI conversion + the TV is about the same as the projetor is making me a liitle (panic) nervous:) I would assume that a SDI direct to the projetor would have less...

    Zero Latency Video of Conductor

    Now that we're rehearsing with Flat screen tv I'm running a good quality SDI to HDMI converter, but on the actual show It'll be SDI directly from my video switcher to the projector. The projector native resolution is 1920x1200 and I can only work on native video resolutions, so I'm working in...

    The actors will be miced (is that how its spelled?! I’m thinking about mice now) so my main concern will be syncing the audio with video. But definitely latency is still an issue. Do you think that pro projectors with SDI IN will cause a lot of latency still?

    Zero Latency Video of Conductor

    I’ve been searching for zero latency for ages knowing that zero latency is something impossible to achieve, but all the topics are a bit misleading and I started to believe there was a zero latency holy grail. But soon reality kicked in! I’m doing this show with 2 cameras live in a play, so...

    Hey sorry to interrupt! But how much money would cost to have 0 latency? What kind of equipment?

    Illusion of depth with video projection

    Antigone written by Sophocles. A greek tragedy brought to our era. It's about a woman facing the powers that be and standing up for what she believes in even if that means facing execution. Yes there was a ton of light. Our light designer is really good one and he tends to go big on it, but...

    2019 Mac Pro — crazy or not?

    I come from a shooting/ editing background in cinema and video so I agree with @ruinexplorer. Before this mac all macbook pro from 2016 to this day are kind of too much hype and not enough stability or specs. They lost a lot of ground to pc and people building their entire workstations for half...

    Illusion of depth with video projection

    Hey guys! It's been a long time since the last post. I wanted to share with you some images from this play I did, that you all contributed with your knowledge and for that I couldn't thank enough. I think the initial ideia of making a perfect illusion kind off blew out as we were rehearsing. We...

    Illusion of depth with video projection

    @ruinexplorer really valuable information. You guys are amazing. I'll upload some photos once the show will be all put together. I was thinking about that scrim and I am astonished by it. So you say to use it to take off that crisp digital feel to the projection right? To soften it up a bit...

    Illusion of depth with video projection

    Spot on @ruinexplorer forgot to mention it's a 4:3 aspect ratio with a 4 meters x 3 meters size (I'm in Portugal, we have metric) I was aiming at that 10000 lumens since the theatre venue has two panasonic projectors with 10000 lumens each. I've considered getting these two projectors lined up...

    Illusion of depth with video projection

    Yup that's the other thing that is boggling me is the scalling! I'm shooting a 5k image so that I can have more room in cropping it in post. @macsound not shure I understood the scrim between the opening and the screen why do you recommend it?

    Illusion of depth with video projection

    Only saw a couple of videos of the Black Diamond series and they are impressive, kind of magical stuff actually!black RP as in black rear projection right? I'll have a rear projection that is about 4 meters away from the surface. Do you have any clue about how many lumens would I need if it is...

    Illusion of depth with video projection

    Hi! Newbie here.I'm doing this show where we need give the illusion that there's an extra room beyond the back of the scenario where some stuff is happening during the show.For this, at the back of the scenario there's an openning, about 3 meters x 3 meters, where the projection of this...
