THE "GRAVITY" PROJECT..

Dear Folks,

Building on Cinema 360 ideology we are finishing spec and design for a quite unique Cinema-called the GRAVITY..

This throws away the "rule book" of traditional Cinemas to create a 21st century viewing room...with shades of Star Wars and futuristic elements..

There will be no equipment on show,no speakers-the only thing obtrusive will be the experience..:-)

It won`t be fussy or overly fancy ..it WILL be modern and have some very clever acoustic elements and design touches incorporated.

It will incorporate correct viewing angles,field of view requisites-the acoustics will be perfection with zero reflections and tonally balanced sound transitions throughout the speaker array.

The curved screen will be custom built in the room and angle of curve determined by chosen projector..

Optimal 3d viewing positions as well as 4k viewing will be optimal with correct distances.

This will be essentially a room within a room so soundproofing can be done easily.

There will be many uniqueties and secret techniques in this room and to say much more would be to "give the game away"..


But it`s going to be verrrryyyy SPECIAL....:-)

Best Regards,
Vince

THE IMPORTANCE OF OPERATIONAL SKILLS IN CINEMA INSTALLS

Dear  Folks,

Great operational skills are absolutely key in designing/planning and scheduling ANY install.Accurate forecasting is paramount to ensure items arrive at the requisite stage of install and trades are organised accordingly.

The above is seldom mentioned by other companies and there is a very..VERY good reason for this...:-)

Namely,they havent the requisite operational skills or background-this isn`t a slight agains`t other companies- rather a fact..

But its an incredibly important fact and a HUGE  plus to have the requisite Operational skills in the Custom Install business-in fact I consider this and the requisite A.V. knowledge,to go hand in hand to create the expertise necessary to create the awesome in good time and cost effectively...

Poor operational planning and scheduling increases project time and operational costs..ultimately this is reflected back to the customer either by exhorbitantly priced equipment or hidden costs..

Though we applaud a customers ability of choice,we are always confident that when a customer appraises the facts and observes our portfolio,expertise and innovation of product mix-that choice is clear..we are innovators not imitators..:-)-

The aim is to continue to advance Projectiondreams to be considered the best in the world and I believe we are not far away..we have the abilities now..the recognition will follow..and this is what we work for -the accolade..we love what we do and want to be the best in the world...

What does make us unique apart from our A.V. qualifications-in Europe and possibly in the world,is our operational  background..

Our M.D. had 15 years of TRULY building technology companies and has numerous worldwide awards to prove it..

Have a look at his LINKED IN PRO page...

 http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=202237200&locale=en_US&trk=tyah&trkInfo=tas%3Avincent%2Cidx%3A3-2-4

What a breath of fresh air to know in Portugal finally in the Audio Video industry there are top class pros with a PROVEN and verifiable background..

This is a PRO industry and Custom Install demands excellence on numerous levels..Operational..product synergy..innovation..great design...expert setup..great acoustic and calibration knowledge...to name a few..

Would you really want to settle for less when  its concerning something as important as technology in your home?

DONT BE RIPPED OFF ANY LONGER WITH HOME AUTOMATION!

For most people, in the Algarve, the words ´Home Automation` automatically conjure up two responses: 1) Ridiculouly expensive 2) Unreliable Bitter experience has led many devlopers & builders to shy away from ´Domotica´ in many new builds, only including it in the Home Cinema and possibly having an ´All closed´ button by the front door for the sutters and lights. This is a shame, as a properly thought out and executed automation system can make life easy for the householder and add substantially to the saleability of a property. Years ago, HA systems were exclusively supplied by companies that require intensive and expensive line-by-line programming, such as Crestron or by lmited off-the-shelf products such as Control 4. Advances in technology Time and technology has advanced markedly over those years and now you can have the best of both worlds with a Cinema 360 Automation system by Bitwise Controls. As much of the processing for the system is done on the client´s iPad and Bitwise´s Project Editor software allows total flexibility of design we can install a modern automation system at a price that cannot be beaten. Cinema 360 Home Automation solution - Local control with a network overview By installing a single Bitwise controller in every zone nearly every electronic device can be controlled, be it through Infra-red, RS-232, IP, electronic relays etc. These devices and their codes are added to custom-made pages programmed for each project.  The client simply presses the button for the action and Bitwise does the rest. “If it can be controlled, Bitwise can control it and if Bitwise can control it, it can be added to your iPad or other mobile device”     ***Using a customised Bitwise system, prices below are per zone, and will include in each zone a control tablet and Bitwise controller as standard. All prices include iva and are for genuine A-stock products with the latest firmware. Per Zone for control of the following.... 1 circuit of lights* & ALL Audio Video..........1,250 Euros * We would need to liaise with the electrician/lighting supplier to ensure compatibility **Add on programming per item..(*for example, air con, electric shutters, temperature control, etc..)...150 Euros per item. Example..For a 10 zone system in a home controlling all lights and a.v...cost is 12,000 Euos..50% of the cost of a less capable off the shelf system such as Control 4. Article on Bitwise controls   How are we able to do this so inexpensively? Let´s make a comparison with the popular, but limited, Control 4 system. The picture on left shows a relay used with Control 4 systems to open/close blinds, the relay on the left does exactly the same thing, it was bought from a local electrical supplier´s and it works perfectly with a Bitwise system. One of these realys costs the client 280 Euros + iva, the other 25 Euros + iva, I´ll let you guess which is which........

THE 4K Specialists in Europe...

Dear Folks,

With the release of 4K t.v.s now (*4 times the resolution of HD) it is crucial that the t.v. is setup correctly.

Indeed,most have THX and ISF calibration menus where "Expert Setup" is required.

-This means that not any old person can setup these t.v.s- -it`s preferable that those setting up such displays-and high end projectors-have the 

requisite knowledge.

At Projectiondreams we have all the required qualifications from THX and ISF to be able to setup your display to optimal.

In fact,we have gone beyond this with our Cinema 360 ideology-an all encompassing total setup criteria.

So you can rest assured that you will get a fantastic picture at the best prices in Europe from an established seller.

Our "Expert Setup" is FREE and considered by us a key factor in adding value to the purchase...

NOBODY else in Portugal offers this service.

As the only company in Europe chosen by Sony Professional to setup their 4k flagship projectors for demonstration..we think that speaks for itself as a testament to our ability...the fact we have the BEST prices as well is a another bonus!

Compare our prices on Projectiondreams dedicated sales site..we do not inflate our install prices..the prices you see are the prices you pay!
