A Christmas Carol with a Video Backdrop?

Yes. A video Backdrop. It should be surely interesting. The total screen size is 3072 pixels wide by 768 pixels high. Most of the work for the background will be done in Photoshop CS4, Motion 2, After Effects CS4, and using an output engine of Final Cut Studio 2 through Quicktime. Then throwing it all through QLab which will be controled by SFX 5.6 through MIDI which is controlled by an M7CL running 18 wireless microphones. Cropping around the scenic pieces will be one of the most difficult parts along with attempting to add motion to still painted photos. Not to mention the fact that finding photos for London in the 1800s online is especially difficult. The plan is to be able to post my experiences with the project here along with other projects I am currently working on in my various jobs.
