[BadVista Advocate] An ad campaign idea

If it was me, I'd just dump my video to film, like super 8, or 16 mm (70 mm 
would be perfect, but way to expensive both for film and the projector).

Then any old home movie projector  --the thrift stores no doubt still have 
some around, I have a few some place myself --like me relics of another 
time...

Anyway you could really cover a large building that way, so long as the lens 
would focus it (you could change the lens if you needed to).  The darker the 
night the better, and that's the rub, until you are into something like a 
'drive in movie' projector you are limited by the bulb in the projector. 
Still it could be done to good effect with some patience for a moonless night 
and not too bright a set of street lamps.

We have done large drawings this way. Project the drawing on a building and 
then trace it for later painting.

Don.
