Broken Glass Projections provides custom projection mapping and architectural visual experiences for events, venues, organizations, and private clients throughout the Boston area. From building façades and historic architecture to indoor venues, museums, churches, corporate events, public celebrations, Halloween, holidays, and New Year’s events, each project is designed around the actual space and the experience the client wants to create.
Boston offers the kind of architecture and event spaces that projection mapping is built for. Historic façades, museums, churches, public buildings, corporate venues, outdoor gathering spaces, and temporary event structures can all become part of the visual experience. Rather than placing video inside a standard rectangle, projection mapping is designed around the actual architectural features of the surface, allowing windows, columns, arches, entrances, and other details to become part of the show.
Projection mapping can be used for city and community events, corporate gatherings, fundraisers, museum and cultural programs, festivals, product launches, Halloween and holiday displays, New Year’s celebrations, weddings, private parties, and special events at homes and venues. The scale can range from a focused indoor installation to a large exterior architectural projection, depending on the location, audience, and goals of the event.
Projection mapping depends on more than just the video itself. The building or surface, viewing distance, available projector placement, ambient light, power, weather, access, and event schedule all affect how the final show is designed. Exterior projects usually work best after dark, and larger public or historic locations may also require permits, site access, or coordination with the property owner or city. We review those factors early so the equipment, content, and setup are appropriate for the location.
Professional wireless uplighting can be added to indoor or outdoor events to highlight architecture, entrances, walls, tents, and event spaces.
Freestanding TV and video displays are available for event videos, sponsor graphics, presentations, photo slideshows, schedules, and other visual content.
Because every building, venue, and event is different, pricing depends on factors such as the size of the projection surface, projector placement, brightness requirements, number of projectors, content complexity, access, power, and event duration. Larger exterior projects and custom animation generally require more lead time, while smaller or simpler installations can often be planned more quickly.
