16:9 Projector and Collage

I have a show comming up that will have 4 DL.2's on it. They are projecting onto two curved panels (two to each panel) that flank a flat center rear projected screen. Please see the image attached for clarification. The center screen will be using a fixed 16:9 Projector. I was wondering if I can use an Axon with the center projector and have the whole screen become a 5x1 collage. I know that there will be some funny blending issues where the DL.2 and the Rear Screen meet, but would this work? Thanks.

  • well, the axon is a dl2 without the projector, so there's no problem about using an axon as one part of your collage.. i'm not shure what happens when you put a 16:9 projector on it though.. my guess is that the projector will just either compress the image in heigth, or cut it's sides.. I would guess that you can just shoot wider than the surface with the actual zoom of the 16:9 projector, and compensate for it beeing 16:9 with the keystoning on the axon, when you make your collage..

    -Someone smarter will probably chime in and give you some great advice, if my idea's are wrong.
