Now we have established our main idea, it was time to start testing the elements of the performance so we would know what the final piece would look like. We managed to collect our fabric to create the cube in which the audience will be immersed in, and we were able to gain access to the projectors we are going to use. One of the videos which may be used was projected onto the material to see how clear of a picture we would get. It became apparent that for in order to project the video correctly, we would have to project through the material, as when images were projected onto the material it would mirror the actual image. The results are in photo form below:
As you can see, this image is mirrored from the original video, so in order for it to be projected the correct way we had to project through the material. The image was just as clear:
Therefore this will enable us to use projections both on and through the material of the cube, if we feel projectors will take up the space within the performance area. Overall the projections were solid and the images were clear to see.
