Content customisation for LED screens is a crucial aspect to consider if you want to stand out in the way your brand is displayed during a live event. In audiovisual production for events, LED screens play an important role in displaying relevant information, videos, images and animations.
To achieve a proper display on LED screens, It is important to keep several things in mind: On the one hand, it is essential that you keep in mind the appropriate resolution for your screen size and pixels. Resolution is measured in pixels (dots) and represents the number of dots of light that can be displayed on a screen. The higher the resolution, the sharper the image.
Calculating the size of the LED screen for an event
To calculate the screen size we need to know the screen dimensions and the pixel size, that will allow us to calculate how many pixels each module has.
The LED screens are made of half-metre modules. This means that you can build it any size you want.
For example: let's say you want to make a screen 14 metres wide by 3 metres high. This is quite a large screen, so with a pixel of 2.9 mm we would get a fairly high total resolution. This 2.9mm refers to the distance between one pixel and another. If we mount a 2.9 mm screen, each module has 168 pixels per module. So what would happen if we have mounted 14 metres, how would we calculate it? In that case it would be 28 modules x 168 pixels per module, resulting in a width of 4704 pixels. The same would happen with the height, which would be calculated with the following formula: 6 x 168 , result 1008. 4704 x 1008 this would then be the resolution at which the content should be created.
Tips for creating content for display on LED screens
In the digital age, creating content that is visually appealing is becoming increasingly important, especially when we want to show it during an event using an LED screen. That's why, it is crucial to know how to create content that looks good on such screens. Here are some useful tips to help you create effective and engaging content for LED displays.
When working on the content to be used during an event, we need to take into account the need to create customised content for LED displays, as it is important to consider the viewing distance of the audience. The distance between the LED screen and the audience may affect the required resolution of the content. Therefore, it is important to consider the viewing distance to ensure that the content is displayed correctly and effectively.
Another important factor to consider in the customisation of content for LED screens is the screen orientation. LED displays can be vertical or horizontal, which affects the way content is displayed. Therefore, it is important to create customised content according to the orientation of the screen.
In short, customising content for LED screens is essential in audiovisual production for events. It is important to consider the appropriate resolution according to screen size and pixels, create duplicate content at different resolutions, consider viewing distance, screen orientation. By doing so, you can ensure that your content is displayed effectively and stands out in any event or situation.
If you are looking to create impressive content for display on LED screens, these tips can be of great help to you.
