Projection day

Today we were introduced to a variety of methods of projection, some more interesting that others and some we already knew off.


Projection Mapping.
Is a projection technology used to turn objects, often irregularly shaped, into a display surface for video projection. These objects may be complex industrial landscape, such as buildings. By using specialized software, a two or three dimensional object is spatially mapped on the virtual program which mimics the real environment it is to be projected on. This way, the computer knows exactly where to project it information as it can bed ad highlight and shape or form.





Mini projector.
A mini projector can fit inside containers such as boxes and can been concealed, hidden from the public eye.
The only problem with a mini projector it that the image can't be modified much so the lighting around has to be quite dark to allow the image to been seen better.






Overhead Projector.
This image shows the use of an overhead projector and a screen. The chair on the screen is a miniature and molly was stood right next to the screen.
This is the most familiarly form of projection and the easiest in our minds. For our project, we are planning on using projection, we still are not sure about what type we should use.
If we were to use this form, we would choose to do it as a stop motion and create a narrative for Claudius.
