There is a certain magic about cinema in its own right. It doesn’t matter how big your LCD TV or Plasma display is, cinema has to be big and projectors provide a picture that reproduces the cinema experience in the outdoors. Schools and caravan parks are amongst the most frequent customers, whilst the home market has yet to catch up. However there are some high profile clients, with large houses who have extensive exteriors in which to house these exciting Al Fresco cinema chill out areas, getting the full benefit of an elaborate install. As outdoor cinema displays are becoming more popular, a number of alternative applications, like dynamic outdoor advertising, are being employed.

Using a projector rated at 2200 ANSI lumens is recommended.

2010 marked the tipping point for 3D movies – in terms of public interest and acceptance.
