Kennesaw State University Performances Leverage Epson Laser
Projector and Ultra Short Throw Lens to Transform Dance Theater

LOS ALAMITOS, Calif., Nov. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Kennesaw State University’s Dance Theater had a desire to enhance their theatric atmosphere while creating depth and dimension on stage. Through the integration of cutting-edge laser projection technology, they were able to create a highly engaging theatrical experience. The state-of-the-art theater, located on the Marietta campus, houses Georgia’s largest undergraduate dance program and integrates the Epson EB-PU2216B projector with 16,000 Lumens of Color Brightness (IDMS Rated) and 16,000 Lumens of White Brightness (ISO Rated)1 to transform a simple set into a dynamic space and create visually breathtaking performances.

Theater lighting is crucial to set the mood, enhance the atmosphere and guide the audience’s journey, and each theater has its own unique set up for lighting. “Live dance and theater projection goes beyond the traditional 16×9 aspect ratio flat surface,” said Colby Nordberg, lead technician for the dance department’s theater, Kennesaw State University. “Often, the projection area is much taller or wider, and we frequently incorporate surrounding spaces, like side walls and floors, to fully immerse the audience and elevate the production.”

The Kennesaw State University Dance Theater opened in March of 2017 and serves as a home for dance and theater in the region, providing professional standards of flooring, lighting and AV technology. The 435-seat facility, built specifically for dance, touts a unique contemporary aesthetic, with the seating, carpeting and interior design of the facility unlike any other in the region. To enhance the audience experience during live performances, projection technology is used to uniquely transform the venue for each performance.

Nordberg purchased the EB-PU2216B laser projector as a solution to simplify the theater’s projection system. “Prior to getting this new model, I would create a blended projection surface with three large projectors to cover the entire cyclorama (cyc). This setup was fragile and required constant maintenance to keep the alignment intact,” he said. “The EB-PU2216B has streamlined our approach, while also enhancing the quality of our projections, making them significantly brighter.”

Using the entirety of the stage is essential to providing dancers and actors with the space to hone their craft. “By pairing the new projector with Epson’s ultra-short throw lens, performers are able to get much closer to the backwall, and now more effectively use the stage space without casting shadows or needing to worry about the projector at all,” continued Nordberg. 

The EB-PU2216B has become an essential tool for the Kennesaw State University Dance Theater, offering benefits to the engineers, performers and audience by enhancing both the technical aspects and visual performance. “The internal mechanical shutter on the projector is incredibly valuable for theater applications,” underscored Nordberg. “And the adjustable fade time control is perfect for smooth, seamless transitions. I wish all projectors incorporated this feature.”

Furthermore, Nordberg noted the laser light source technology is quiet, where fan noises can be distracting to both the audience and performers. As a laser projector, there are no lamps that need replacing. The air filter free projector and its laser light source makes it a cost-effective solution and there is less worry about maintenance – a critical component as the projector is installed 25 feet in the air.

Nordberg underscored the high brightness of the EB-PU2216B has been a game-changer in delivering crisp, vibrant visuals. “The EB-PU2216B is super bright on our white cyc. Generally, using projection on stage requires balance and communication between the lighting designer and the video designer, in order to not wash out or overpower the projected images with stage lights. Having a bright projector like this one, along with knowledgeable designers, means fewer sacrifices have to be made and the artistic vision can remain intact.”

“Video projection in theatrical shows transform a stage into a dynamic, engaging experience, enhancing every performance and captivating audiences in ways that were previously unimaginable,” said Ramzi Shakra, senior product manager, Projection, Epson America, Inc. “We are thrilled the EB-PU2216B has enriched the performances at Kennesaw State University. Paired with our ultra-short throw lens, it provides performers increased space on the stage to express their art, while simultaneously streamlining technical aspects needed to put on these shows. It’s our goal to provide technology to enhance the energy and artistry of live performances, providing an imaginative experience.”

Published

on

By

The Enterprise Content Management (ECM) market is growing rapidly, propelled by factors like rising volumes of digital content across industries, driving organizations to adopt ECM solutions for efficient data management and workflow streamlining. Regulatory compliance demands, especially in highly regulated sectors like healthcare and finance, further boost ECM adoption as companies work to secure and organize records.

LEWES, Del., Nov. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Global Enterprise Content Management ECM Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 16.1% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report published by Verified Market Reports®.

Global Enterprise Content Management ECM Market Overview

Market Drivers Fueling Growth in the Enterprise Content Management ECM Market

Increasing Demand for Data-Driven Insights and Compliance Requirements
The rise of data-driven decision-making and strict compliance regulations are major drivers in the Enterprise Content Management (ECM) market. Organizations face growing pressure to manage and analyze vast amounts of data efficiently to gain competitive insights. Moreover, regulatory compliance in sectors like healthcare, finance, and government mandates robust ECM systems to ensure secure, traceable, and compliant handling of documents. This trend is propelling investments in ECM solutions that facilitate not only data storage but also analytics and compliance monitoring, ultimately driving the market forward.Shift to Cloud-Based ECM Solutions for Scalability and Flexibility
As businesses expand, the need for scalable, flexible, and accessible content management solutions is becoming critical, making cloud-based ECM solutions a popular choice. Cloud ECM allows companies to store and manage content without extensive on-premise infrastructure, which helps reduce costs and increase flexibility. The scalability of cloud solutions supports growth, and the ability to access content remotely has become vital in today’s remote and hybrid work environments. This shift toward cloud ECM is a significant driver, fostering growth as organizations seek more adaptable and efficient content management systems.Growth of Digital Transformation and Automation in Business Processes
Digital transformation initiatives are accelerating the adoption of ECM as organizations seek to modernize and automate content-heavy processes. ECM systems enable streamlined workflows, efficient document processing, and integration with other enterprise applications, which reduces manual workloads and operational inefficiencies. Automation capabilities, such as AI-driven categorization and predictive analytics, are further enhancing ECM’s value, allowing businesses to optimize resources and enhance productivity. This trend toward digital and automated solutions is a key market driver, making ECM a central element in modern business operations.

Market Restraints Limiting Expansion in the Enterprise Content Management ECM Market

High Implementation and Maintenance Costs
One of the primary restraints in the Enterprise Content Management (ECM) market is the high cost associated with implementation and ongoing maintenance. ECM solutions, particularly for large organizations, require substantial upfront investment in terms of software, hardware, and skilled personnel for deployment. Additionally, the recurring costs of updates, troubleshooting, and training employees can be a financial burden, especially for smaller organizations. These high costs deter some businesses from adopting ECM solutions, thereby limiting market expansion, particularly in sectors with constrained IT budgets.Complexity in Integration with Existing Systems
Integrating ECM systems with existing IT infrastructure, including legacy systems and other enterprise software, presents a significant challenge for many organizations. Compatibility issues, data migration difficulties, and the need for customization can create complex and time-consuming integration processes. This complexity can disrupt operations and demand extensive technical expertise, making ECM adoption less appealing for organizations that lack the resources or personnel for a smooth transition. As a result, integration challenges continue to be a significant barrier in the ECM market, slowing its adoption rate.Data Security and Privacy Concerns
Data security and privacy concerns are critical limitations within the ECM market, particularly as data breaches and cyber threats continue to rise. Organizations are often wary of potential vulnerabilities in ECM systems, especially when cloud-based solutions are involved, as they might expose sensitive information to unauthorized access or data leaks. Regulatory pressures surrounding data protection, such as GDPR and HIPAA, further add to this restraint, as businesses must ensure ECM solutions comply with stringent data privacy standards. These security concerns discourage some organizations from fully committing to ECM, hindering market growth.

Geographic Dominance

The Enterprise Content Management (ECM) market showcases notable geographic dominance, with North America and Europe leading due to their advanced digital infrastructure, high levels of technological adoption, and strong regulatory frameworks around data management and compliance. North America, in particular, benefits from the presence of established ECM providers and a large number of businesses investing in digital transformation, making it a major contributor to market revenue. Europe follows closely, driven by GDPR regulations that compel companies to adopt robust ECM solutions for data privacy and security. Meanwhile, the Asia-Pacific region is emerging as a significant market due to rapid economic growth, increasing digitalization, and rising awareness of ECM benefits in countries like China, Japan, and India. In contrast, regions such as Africa and other parts of the world are in the early stages of ECM adoption, primarily due to limited IT budgets and infrastructure challenges. However, as digital transformation initiatives expand globally, these regions are expected to contribute to ECM market growth over time.

 Enterprise Content Management ECM Market Key Players Shaping the Future

Major players, including Hewlett Packard, M-Files, Microsoft, Newgen Software, OpenText, Oracle, Xerox, Alfresco Software, Hyland Software. and more, play a pivotal role in shaping the future of the Enterprise Content Management ECM Market. Financial statements, product benchmarking, and SWOT analysis provide valuable insights into the industry’s key players.
