What is Projection Mapping

Projection mapping, which is commonly referred to as building projection, video projection mapping or street projection, is a form of lighting design and technology which allows the team to project and skew imagery to fit the contours of a surface, at a phenomenal scale. This technique lends itself particularly well to projects that benefit from bold impact, and considerable scope – the flexibility and capabilities of projection mapping technology are vast.

Projection Mapping Specialists

Double Take Projections use high powered projection mapping equipment to animate any surface using light. In essence, the team can radically alter the character of an environment or object by projecting from different angles onto a variety of canvases. A projection mapping specialist can create beautiful illusions with moving images, which captivate live audiences and leave them with a memorable impression of an event.

Highly Versatile Displays

Video mapping has a long history but has experienced a surge in popularity and accessibility in recent years. Most commonly, we see the technology being used to transform entire building façades or public spaces into art on a vast scale. Projection mapping is highly versatile however and can enhance a myriad of different projects and events; such as art installations and exhibitions, historical celebrations, experiential marketing projects and guerrilla advertising stunts. Let us create a buzz around your brand that is otherwise only achieved through a large advertising budget.

How Far Has  Mapping Projection Come?

3D projection mapping has completely evolved since its first outings in the early 2000s when its purpose was mainly in street projection to project visual-art and enhance live-music shows. Although video mapping is still used for that it can now be used by production companies to incorporate the telling of entire stories, by using animated visuals and music to produce cinema style effects, action and narratives.

We’ve found it a particularly useful and engaging experience when used for product launches. A lot of companies are now seeing the benefits video mapping has and product launches are just one of the many reasons projection mapping has become so popular.

Guerrilla Marketing Campaigns

The magnitude that can be achieved with video mapping is spectacular and surpasses the limits of conventional approaches to exhibition and advertising. Projector mapping is a very flexible and mobile medium – Double Take Projections can activate a video projection just about anywhere, quickly and efficiently with maximum impact. Take your advertising campaigns to new heights, gain your brand positive recognition and transform environments with our highly advanced, 3D projection mapping service.

Our Video Mapping Process

Our UK team at Double Take Projections have developed systems and processes to ensure maximum efficiency for projection mapping. All you need is a piece of inspiration, an idea. Even if the planning process for your event is already in effect, it is still possible to use projection mapping. In order to minimise costs and maximise creativity and collaboration, however, try and plan your projection mapping as far in advance as possible.

Latest Technologies

Once commissioned for a piece of work, a full site survey is carried out, and with the use of photogrammetry models and the latest 3D laser scanning equipment, our projection mapper will produce an unwrapped front elevation of the building surfaces acting as a design template.

Next, the team story-boards the desired project narrative and conducts research for the visuals. The team then often works with a script-writer, to develop a strong narrative that runs through all mediums of the project.

Creating Memorable Moments

Using 2D animation techniques, 3D projection mapping software, green screen videography and motion graphics, Double Take Projections produces imaginative shows that dazzle audiences. The studio has an extensive kit list and can provide or acquire any mapping projector and AV equipment required.

From our point of view, the more equipment, and high quality equipment at that, the more we can bring your idea to life into a full blown projection spectacle.

Projections That Last

During the event, an in-house photographer or videographer films and photographs the show and displays, to capture the space, the memories and visuals of the projection and create a legacy of the art project. Our people aim to make every event a long lasting memory in the hearts and minds of the audience.

Experienced Technicians

Our high quality projectors and head light fixtures are carefully installed and set up by our fastidious mapping project team. We have a team of experienced video technicians, who have hundreds of video productions under their belt, that install the equipment and line it up to the contours of the building, ceilings, projection screens, objects, elements or whatever surface is required.

Projection Artists

As I’m sure you are aware by now, projection mapping isn’t just a selling piece; it can be a live piece of art that any installation artist would be proud of or an illusion designed to inform or impress.
