<p style="font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">Bill, what I am trying to sell is the idea that we could use this in lou of renting backdrops for theatre productions. Or possible use as set rather than build something. Maybe use it during a concert to project images or videos themed to the music. When we host a contest, project the name of the school/group. Just something to use all around in addition to what we already have.</p>
<p style="font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">This answer you question?</p>

<p style="font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">Hello all,</p>
<p style="font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">I am trying to teach myself the in & outs of rear projection so I can convince the powers that be to invest in it for the space. So what I need from you all is some in-site, like how many lumen is the min. required to do this? Size of projector? What is the best material to use as a screen? I am starting from scratch & know nothing on the topic. </p>
<p style="font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">Thank you all in advance for you input.</p>
