When planning an eye-catching — and by “eye-catching,” we mean “face-melting” — video display system, the question of an LED video wall vs. a projection system will most likely be the first decision you need to ponder. Both systems have benefits and drawbacks, but for performance, convenience, and long-term value, an LED video wall is tough to beat.

Remember Seinfeld’s two-face girlfriend? One day she is a knock-out, the next… YEESH! It all depends on the lighting. It’s the same with your home or business. The right lighting makes your building look elegant and welcoming. The wrong lighting makes it look like the Griswald house had a baby with a Kenny Rogers Roasters.

House of Worship lighting installs can be some of the most challenging for any lighting designer. From a lighting standpoint many places of worship require a multi-use space with uses including worship, broadcast, concert and theatre events, meetings, weddings and funerals. If you have a large enough budget, effective lighting design for a house of worship’s multiple uses should be doable. With a more modest budget, well, it’s time to get creative.

The idea of a video wall has been around for a while. Way back in the nineties, video walls like the one at Tower Records in Times Square often consisted of TV sets stacked together behind a false wall. Mostly, the screens all showed the same image.

The modern video wall, built with products like Blizzard Lighting’s IRiS, sets a new standard for what’s possible displaying your images. From store displays in your local mall to the mammoth screens in stadiums, video walls have definitely evolved!
