Gerriets featured its new Ultrabrite Projection Fabric at USITT 2017 in St. Louis. The seamless 140’ wide by 13’ high projection surface could be seen by attendees at the entrance to the expo hall. Wladimiro A. Woyno R., a Yale University Graduate Student, designed the projections with vibrant textures reminiscent of circuit boards and animations evoking Broadway hits. These were carefully mapped across seven projectors over the 140’ wide fabric.
