JACKMAN MEDIA CONCEPTS PAGE


Jackman Media™ Format is a multi screen virtual view using display panels,in a seamless video wall display, or Projected onto multiple screens to provide a virtual view across more than one screen, and content is created specifically to match the display configuration and position, as it relates to the viewer, Standards for Capture, and Sound, will be discussed elsewhere. for sake of description we will only discuss projected digital cinema.Three Standard Jackman Media Format configurations have been shown here: A three screen projected display, one screen in front of the viewer, (A)a 32:9 aspect ratio. (B) a screen 16:9 to the left and (C) a Screen 16:9 to the right of the viewer All three screens along an arc of 180 degrees from the projector. The Video content is delivered in a virtual 180 degree view. Initial concerns were the gaps of space between the screens along the 180 degree arc, as opposed to viewing a continuous scene. It has been found that the eyes of the viewer do not pan like the camera, it cuts from focus point to focus point along an arc of view. When a viewer is drawn into the content of the video they will engage the screens and not recognize the gaps. The center 32:9 screen determines the view of both side screens. As the centerline pans left or right, the side screens zoom either in or out to match the new center point on the 32:9 screen. If the center screen zooms in or out. each side screen follows at the same zoom. It is not my intention to detail every screens view, but just to get an understanding of the control over the view of each screen, and how they can be made to function together. The simplicity of this concept is that it is created completely in one single digital source, and one high performance high definition 3D ready digital DLP projector. It is done without re inventing the equipment, just the process of the display. The entire content of three screens is imbeded on the real estate of one 16:9 screen and split by a video beam system of first surface mirrors to direct each frame to the proper screen. A three screen projected display 3 equal size 5:9 verticle aspect ratio screens apx 1/3 of a wide screen 16:9 placed in the same configuration as the previous description. A two screen projected display with one screen 32:9 to the left and a second 32:9 screen to the right with a view 180 degrees apart. This screen configuration would be used in a Isle way, hall way, concourse or tunnel. As in a Mall Isle with a 32:9 16 ft wide screen by 4 1/2 ft tall placed above the store fronts or in a common area with a second screen placed directly accross the isle displaying the 180 degree view
