Late last month we announced that a video projection system for Blue Valley Christian Church had been ordered. This follows our vision for Church transformed and will be used to enhance our worship services and experience of God at BVCC. There are many potential uses of this technology so we are very excited about this step forward.
We have been working with our installer, Stark Raving Solutions, on the details of the installation. The screen was already delivered this morning to the church and the installation of the system is scheduled for September 28th. The installation should take about 6 hrs and SRS will provide training at the end on how to use the new technology.
The projector we ended up with is the Mitsubishi WD-3300U. It is a DLP WXGA (1280x800) projector with a brightness of 4000 Lumens. We are fitting it with a special Navatar lens to project the image across the sanctuary. The screen is a Da-Lite Contour Electrol 54” x 96” (110" diagonal) 16:9 format screen. Computer and video connections along with screen controls will be installed in the sanctuary back wall adjacent to the visuals room. This will be the future location for all our audio/visual equipment for the sanctuary.
We are currently preparing for the installation by working with electrical contractors on installing the needed electrical outlets for the projector and screen. We will also be working on acquiring a media desk that we can use to securely house the audio/video equipment as well as purchasing a new computer to run the presentation software for the visuals. I am certainly excited about all the new possibilities this technology will give us and how God might use it to reach us in new ways.
