Case Studies:

Kicking It Off Ravens Style!

The Baltimore Ravens counted down to kickof using image projections and lasers on local Baltimore buildings. These projections were produced by Image Engineering and utilized high power Pani and Griven projectors. Flexibility of full color film and lasers rather than gobos allowed the Ravens to promote their team and match the surfaces of the various locations.

The projection was specially designed to adjust for not only vertical keystoning, but horizontal keystone as well. Image Engineering's projection specialists measured the side then utilized 3-D software to simulate the keystone. The films were corrected, then outsourced for processing.
