Re: Immersive Video Projection Melding with Event Decor Lighting
Bonnie,
Since I've spent time working in optics labs, interviewed with a major LED manufacturer, and digested a large fraction of the science literature on halide lamps for graduate school, I hope for technological solutions.
In the present, though, I'm not an LD, but have to be conversant in that space when dealing with clients and potential clients. In the lighting space one can use a dichroic gobo to color match the typical moving fixture to the conventional fixtures. Or one can proceed the other way with color matching gels.
People also seem to accept the color temperature mismatch, and use it as a contrast element. Usually I see the moving heads cooler than the conventionals. In these cases the movers aren't being used as part of the wash environment, so the contrast can be useful to punch things up.
I'm not sure any of these techniques are applicable in the environment where you are trying to blend the two lighting schemes, unless you can put color temperature matching dichroics in the video-producing fixtures.
