Music Video Dance Party
A music video dance party requires a video screen to fit the location. After Hours have both smaller 7’ video screens and our larger 14’ video screen. When we are performing at a video dance party, we typically do what is called “rear projection,” where the LCD projector for the music video dance party is placed behind the video screen. If you have a smaller room with limited space for your music video dance party, we suggest that you place the video projector in the corner of the room and have the video screen for the music video dance party about 12-15’ out from that corner.
The key to a successful music video dance party is the LCD projector. Some VJs will attempt to use cheap $1,000 projectors for your music video dance party with only 700-1,400 lumens (brightness). The room must be completely black in order for people to see this style projector. There are cheaper Dell LCD projectors with higher outputs – in the 2,000-3,000 lumen range, but the picture quality is shoddy. After Hours uses only professional grade $5,000 Sanyo 2,500 Lumen projectors for their music video dance parties. Why? What’s the use in having a music video dance party if the picture quality is poor or you can’t see it?
The same goes for the sound system at your music video dance party – We typically setup a concert level sound system for all of our music video dance parties (unless very small number of guests or more intimate setting). The floor will shake and the pulse of the music will resonate throughout you as you enjoy the music video dance party. It will be like going to a night club. You will be submerged in sound, light and video. Our club style lighting will bring the night club atmosphere to your venue. Your music video dance party will be the most amazing thing you’ve ever experienced in entertainment. Contact After Hours DJ to schedule your music video dance party. With over 3,000 music videos on DVD (and growing by about 100 videos each month!), we have music to satisfy both young and young at heart at your next music video dance party. We do not utilize low resolution computer based music videos for your music video dance party like many other companies offer.
