Here's my dilemma. It's for a movie shooting at Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. They want to use DL2s to project onto the entryway wall under the porte cochere, where all the taxis and limos drive up to drop off hot chicks. The original idea (attached) was to hang them under the porte cochere far enough back to hit the wall nicely and use collage generator. The problem that came up was the cinematographer loves the architecture of the porte cochere's ceiling and does not want to see the DL2s hanging right in the middle. If they were brighter, I'd put them further back, but that's 72 feet, way to far for these units. Also, they don't want them on the ground because of all the extras and cars that will be passing by. They don't want anyone walking in front of the beams, which would especially look strange in collage mode. So the thought came up to hang them off the side of the porte cochere (attached). While this does solve all these problems, I am concerned about the keystoning of the fixtures in order to use collage generator. Base on the drawing I attached, can any of you tell me if this is going to be a problem?
You want to ideally leave yourself a range to increase/decrease your zoom on the units as needed. That way you can first adjust your zoom before you start keystoning and use the tightest zoom possible...which equates to a brighter image.
Most likely for this application the units that are close to the surface will need to be zoomed out a lot more than the units that are shooting farther away. If you use Zoom as your first adjustment before keystoning it means you will throw less pixels away as part of the keystone correction.
