Projection for Non AV Techs

Got a few ideas about how projectors work but want to expand your skills? Then this workshop is for you. 
The session is designed for technicians already working in venues or on productions who specialise in other areas and want to know a bit more about working with projection. Topics covered will include looking at projector specs to work out what’s the right projector for the job, calculating throw/using the right lens and having the right file types.
