- This guide is based on the 2007 RUclips video titled "VJ Kung Fu: Build a Projector Mount That Will Go Anywhere": • VJ Kung Fu: Build a Pr... . Shout out to @psensibil for helping me with this DIY mount the first time I built it.
I have been using this mount for all my live visual shows. Without it, it would not be possible for me to set up my projector on ceilings at music venues on the day of, and then easily take it down at the end of the show. This couple hundred dollar project makes your projector useable in so many situations.

Just to pre-empt this: the projector I use is an Optoma WU515. Please don't ask me about specific models and stuff, I am not an expert and there are plenty of guides out there to help you. All I can say is I recommend projectors with 4k lumens or more in brightness. Resolution, aspect ratio, and throw ratio are all things that depend on you and your environment. Use projectorcentral.com to help you. It has the specs of over 11,000 projector models and a handy throw distance calculator for each one.
Thanks for doing all this man
KNOWLEDGE! best energy >.
third!!
let me tell you your contribution to the world of analog visuals is invaluable, thank you!
I never knew I needed this video. At my last venue I had to project from a balcony and prop it up at a downward angle
this is immensely useful info, thank you!
dawgg always throwin so much knowledge back into tha community bless
Thank you for sharing this info. 🙏
Great info! Thanks for this.
Thanks for making a new version of this tutorial with links to the materials.
Thanks 🙏🏻
i'm a beginner in all this video glitch art stuff and your channel its really useful, keep it up!
Safety tether is a key, key, feature that has to be used with this.
This is what film gaffer shit was made for!!!! so happy to see the ingenuity here.

genius so helpful ty
You ever get asked about liability or insurance, anything like that when doing this? It's a great idea. Those are grip materials so I know they are sturdy. However, I imagine some venues not wanting you to do it because it could fall. Do you clear out the area below if you can? Thinking about doing this but maybe adding a hook on it so I can wrap a chain or something around it as well.
yes it's standard practice in any venue to use a safety cable when mounting something like this. also in the USA I am an LLC so I can't be personally sued if something bad happens.
I've been planning a live set up but was considering buying a short throw projector so I don't have to worry about mounting. Are there any benefits to using a long throw in a live setting? I figure you have done enough live shows to have encountered issues that I am unaware as of now.
Freaking love your videos btw and it has helped me immensely through my personal analog glitch rabbit hole. It always feels good when you mention some hiccups you have had and I have experienced it too. Keep it up! We need more people like you!
The big advantage of this with a short throw is you can mount it in the ceiling so it won't shine in the performers
this is true, i've always wanted one, but it does make it harder in some situations (setting up right on top of the stage) and they seem to be harder to find
@@YOVOZOL check out epson 585w (or similar) on eBay, around $300. I have 3 and they're super useful. Lower lumens(~3k) but so close to the screen it's ok. They don't work in every scenario but are great for some.
@@jimkincaidz looking at these myself. How do you mount yours? Same setup as in this video or another approach?
Free sauce
I see you using feedback loops for live shows, where do you put the camera?
this mans pretty hot, i wonder if he has the same interests as m-
