Unit 65 video and projection
- 2. Long Throw Projector • Can be HD and can connect computers, DVD and live feed from video camera. • Has a VGA cable. • Long throw can hit further away screens. • Has a focuser and built in speaker • Used in front but can invert and project from behind to avoid performers blocking the picture. • You would use a Long Throw if you had a larger space and wanted the projector to be discreet as unlike a Short Throw it doesn’t have a flip down lenses, therefore it is easier to be hid and more aesthetically pleasing. For example you would use a Long Throw in a hall to do a presentation to a large amount of people.
- 3. Short Throw Projector • Can be HD and can connect computers, DVD and live feed from video camera. • Has a VGA cable. • Short Throw would be used for closer proximity screens. • Has a focuser and built in speaker • Used in front but can invert and project from behind to avoid performers blocking the picture. • You would use a Short Throw if space is short as it creates a better picture from a closer projection. For example you would use a Short Throw in a performance if the projector and screen was within a close proximity.
