Wedding Cake Projector Mapping Display tutorial

- Here we shot a video of a projector cake map display we will be using when we speak at the national Lighting Symposium on our seminar "Illuminate, Mobile Use of Event Projections"
Please note, this is a TUTORIAL... not at an actual gig. The cake is styrofoam and the display is on the middle of the dance floor... Most semi intelligent people can see this but the ignorant trolls want to try to make their point seen. The visuals are generic not visuals we create for a booked job... the computer I use isn't necessary for cake mapping but we use upwards of 6 projectors through our tower and we do a lot less cake maps and more wall or venue mapping. You can easily use a laptop as long as your processor can handle running multiple HD video files at one time. The computer is usually hidden behind a lit facade and the content we create is based off what the client is looking for. We map on an actual cake, which I thought was obvious but 1 idiot wanted to take this video as a gig log and not as something I wanted to help the community with...
Do you have a picture or a video of what it looks like with the drapery and everything else?
a tip: you can watch series at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching a lot of movies these days.
@Benton Hudson Definitely, I've been watching on flixzone} for years myself =)
@Benton Hudson Definitely, been watching on Flixzone} for since november myself :D

I tried mapping a 1920 x 1080 video onto an 8x10 picture frame, they video was too grainy. What is your recomended size slideshow video? Using a 1080p standard throw epson l255f.
Hello, great video. If you have to map the
customer's cake do you do the mapping in site
right before the even? thanks you
hi I want to do a wedding in my backyard right.. and I imagine on my white fences to project a scenery on all 4 sides so when I walk down the isles it feels dreamy and out of this world! I want the space to feel huge, spectacular, breath taking! of course I'd be doing my wedding late afternoon sun set to almost dark out. Can you make this happen? I'm sure after this post many will be trying to copy too
now I want to ask you about the truss "the tower that you put the projector on" you are using can I know the height of it?? and also I would like to know the average cost you charge for ppl
what sorfware you use
E possibile sapere che programma usi per gli effetti grazue
I mount the projector with a modified ceiling mount with 2 O Clamps
How do you keep the Truss from Falling over with just one projector , let alone three ? Why Three Projectors ? So basically use a small Light weight Projector ?
Hi thank you for the video can you write the names of the things you use for this and the technology as well I will like to learn more about this thank you x
Love the video! To do these types of projection images what types of projectors do you recommend? How many lumens? Are there any brands you can recommend and or stay away from? Thanks in advance for your help.
+Danny Gee Personally I love Optoma and Benq. There are a ton of options but I recumbent any 3000+ lumen, HD projector with a high contrast ratio
Where is the tutorial?
I place my projector and check the coverage using the splash screen. When it's where I want it I then start mapping.
Check out my FB page dedicated to mobile event projections "Illuminate Mobile Event Projections " or my instagram @djdonnielewis I have a ton of videos on there as well
hello loved your video recorder , very show.
more I wanted to know what program do you use to map .
and a question, how are you doing to project video on the cake and tables ?
helson costa dos santos yes the 1 projector is doing all the content on the table
Awesome presentation! I have a question for you. Where do you get the video clips to project them onto a surface? Keep up the excellent work!
+flhines18 Thank You! I have a slow motion capture setup in my office to do specific videos but most I get from sites like video blocks.com and edit them using Adobe After Effects when I need to
Helio very good vídeo, how can I buy the bars you use to mount the projector, in English how they call
how many lumens do i need for the projector
Stupid question but when the bride and groom go to cut the cake do you shut down your video or how do you handle that? Just got back from Mobile Beat and got excited once again about mapping.
I actually provide 2 options. the most common option is me providing a "dummy" cake which is a Styrofoam cake covered in fondant that they don't cut. they do however cut the cake supplied by the venue. the 2nd option is me projecting onto the baker supplied cake. if that's the case I turn off the projection just after the cake is cut
Your Event Matters Entertainment Thanks for your reply .... Wondering how sellable this is in my market ... like you, I'm more interested in the room mapping. I live on the coast in North Carolina. If you have any contacts out this way I'd be curious as to their success. Thanks
Don Jewell feel free to check out my FB group @illuminatemonograms we have quite a few members sharing there.
your event matters entertainment have a ?
1. i seen you comment OPTOMA AND BENQ are good projectors so i went to there websites there are so many models which ones do you personally use or
recommend? id really appreciate it thanks in advance
+Santos Rubio I recommend the optima eh501 or benq mw769 both very good projectors
Hello.. can you please tell me what software did you use on making your video Mapping too/\l?
John Paul Balbon I'm using arkaos Grandvj XT
i gotta question... where do u start mapping the cake?!
do u get the size of the cake and make a sample at studio according to the size of the cake?! or how!?
nice video btw..thanks
+Whoman Mkh I actually supply my own 4 tier square cake. It was made by a baker and mirrors a typical wedding cake. I charge an extra fee to use a venue or customer supplied cake because the time that is needed drastically changes
Hi, nice video. Thanks for uploading.
But i have a question, how you calibrate or how you can know the distance you have to put the projector from the cake? Or just you put the projector anywhere and then you configure the software?
Sorry for my english.
Thanks
+Javier Carvajal I actually use my own table and cake, typically, unless they pay extra for me to map the cake they supply. This allows me to have my mapping pre-set and sizing all done. I always use this truss and tubes and place the projector in the same spot which allows for easier setup and less time mapping
@@YourEventMattersEntertainment Hello, I want to communicate with you
Hello, great video. If you have to map the customer’s cake do you do the mapping in site right before the even? thanks you
I have a question, how long a projection mapping can be? does it last the whole party or just a few minutes at some point of the night?
willie941 I usually keep the animations to around 5 minutes looped throughout the night. Most couples have the projections placed onto their real cakes which would drop after the cake is cut. If they choose our dummy cake option we keep it up for the entire event
Thanks a lot, knowing this is very important.
Hi, what projector are you using? model? thanks!
Ezequiel Villahoz I'm using the optoma eh501
First of all, congratulations on your tutorial. What is this HD flon device? Is it a router? What is it used for? One more question. Do you use stuff like Benq Qcast Dongle to avoid HDMI cables? Is it the way to solve this question? Thanks in advance.
Felipe Pinaud peerless HD flow is the wireless HD transmitter and receiver we use. The problem with casting devices is the inability to extend your screen. They tend to clone your sources screen
how do you have your projector mounted on the pole ?
+BeasleyMediaSolutions I built a mount that has 2 global truss O-Clamps attached
What are the measurements for the stand? Like how tall are those totems?
8.5' with a 1' 90° elbow
I'm interested on what software you used. Care to share? 😊 Thanks!
+Ludwig Roxas Im using Grandvj XT
hi , do you have any more cake mapping video
Jesh Goram yup on my channel are quote a few animation videos and my Instagram is flooded with content. @djdonnielewis
How do you even begin to do this? And is it possible for me to do it myself?
McLinda White it absolutely is. Feel free to check out my FB group @illuminatemonograms
What is the specs of projector do you recommend for this project? Thanks
Mark Benson the projector we use is a 5000 lumen full 1080 hd projector. The most important factor of any projector used for monograms or mapping, imo, is the resolution. Having a full HD projector is key
Your Event Matters Entertainment thanks a lot! I want to learn more about projection mapping, your video is very helpful
can you please show how its looks all covered?
+Panamá Evolution Panama, I will be uploading a video later this winter showing a completed display
Kann das jemand vielleicht auf deutsch beschreiben, wie das geht?
How many projector i need ?
Sara Ashour just 1 for a square cake, 2 for round
Did not learn one thing in this "tutorial"
Kendall Jorgensen the biggest hurdle people have are setup ideas. This is one of our 3 setup options I wanted to share. I believe the info was valuable, especially seeing the setups so similar popping up
@@YourEventMattersEntertainment i agree. What are your other two options
