Abstract

A special effects system designed to provide a projection surface or screen that can be animated or dynamically altered in its shape and/or size over time while video content is being concurrently projected from a video projector onto the altering projection surface. The video content and projection surface alterations are synchronized in time, e.g., on a pixel basis or other level of precision in some cases, such that the size and/or shape of the projected imagery, e.g., of a character, an animated object, and/or the like, matches that of the size and shape or outline of the present state of the dynamically alterable projection surface.
