      Hi Folks

      I'm projecting onto a parabolic church dome and thought I'd try the 3D mesh projector. The Izzy manual say go to Paul Bourke's site for mesh mapper. I was hoping for something a little simpler... sort of a mesh grid that can be push and pulled to make a rectangle fit this sloping ceiling. VPT has a rudimentary mesh and of course mad mapper, but I'm a isadora kinda guy and was hoping for some advice on doing this. I think people have utilized photoshop for a template perhaps...
      Thanks,
      John

        If the projector's position is fixed, you could try to prepare your meshed image in something like Photoshop or After Effects in situ.

          or try to apply it to a 3D model of the same shape as a texture.
          As for the mesh mapper, the site is a little hard to navigate, but he does provide a number of standard meshes, that may work for you.

            Thanks for the good suggestions... will look into mesh possibilities with Motion 4, which I like to use on site because it can output directly to the projector.

              Well I really tried hard bu no success with this actor. Mark showed it to me before osc gained the stream setup window. I never succeeded bu now Paul Bourke moved to Quartz composer (I just learnt that) It is definitely worth a shot. I'll play around that next week. http://paulbourke.net/dome/warppatch/
