Camron Ware is known for creating dynamic worship environments with unique 3 screen projection. Now that we offer Multi-Screen loops and stills at WorshipHouse we asked him to write a post for the blog to help out churches that want to know more about this type of media…. Enjoy!

What are these new multi-screen loops on Worship House?   Good question.  These specialized loops are designed for projection systems that have 3 separate screens; all controlled by a single computer.

Usually when I do a triple-wide setup, I am using a MacBook Pro, Renewed Vision’s ProVideoPlayer, and a Matrox TripleHead2Go.  The Matrox box allows the Mac’s second desktop to be ‘triple-wide’, with a resolution of 2400×600 or 3072×768, etc.  ProVideoPlayer then allows me to ‘stretch’ my clips and stills onto that triple-wide second-desktop resolution.  However, when using standard 4:3 or 16:9 clips on three screens, the stretching causes most clips to look distorted.  These multi-screen loops are the answer!  They are specially formatted to fit the triple-wide resolution format.  Whether using three screens, or three walls for Environmental Projection, the result of true triple-wide media can be a powerful and memorable experience.

There are several producers on WorshipHouseMedia that are producing triple-wide content, so make sure and go exploring!

One of my favorite examples of using triple-wide loops includes blending Names of God by Visual Worshiper and NightSky by Igniter.  The names and stars both fly past you, and it feels like you are experience and inside one motion video.

With more and more churches utilizing three projectors and screens for visuals during worship, the timing couldn’t be better!

Awake Images is known for amazing multi-screen (aka triple wide) images. They have hundreds and hundreds which can make it overwhelming to know which ones to pick. We are excited to now offer starter packs of 12 multi-screen images for only $18.00 with Awake’s New Packs! The Sacred packs are great for Easter. These packs are a great way to enough images to cover a week or two of mutli-screen projection in your church. See all the collections here.

Here is an example of the sacred collections:

Justin of Sevenapples has some of the coolest and most unique stills I have seen in a long time. He puts a lot of work into these designs / photos to create stills that you must see.  If your church can handle this stuff you should get some.  These stills could stand alone easy, or be used with text over them. Also they are large JPEG files so you don’t have to worry if you project in HD. See ALL of sevenapples content here. Plus they are only $3.00 each!!
