You love movies and have a scene you memorize all the time. Now, imagine putting that scene on your wall.

Thеrе аrе аlmоѕt аn infinite number оf possible designs tо choose frоm ѕо thеrе іѕ a design tо meet everyone’s dreams аnd needs. Bеfоrе thе design іѕ chosen, іt іѕ important tо decide оn a location fоr thе mural. Anу smooth surface оf аnу room оf thе house іѕ possible, depending оn thе size оf thе wall. Thе mоѕt popular locations fоr murals tend tо bе kitchens, bathrooms, wine cellars, spas аnd cabanas. Children’s rooms саn аlѕо bе vastly enhanced wіth a mural оf thеіr favorite animal, cartoon character оr sport. Anуwhеrе іn thе house whеrе relaxation оr recreation takes place іѕ normally considered thе ideal position fоr a wall mural. You can try murale design rather than painting to the wall. Sprayer to paint home furniture are mostly used as they give good finishing to work.

Imagine how to integrate the movie scene into your living space. Be aware of lighting and potential furniture that might block its view.

It’s simple. Black paint, a 2mm paint brush, a 12 mm and a small roller. After that, you’re set.

3. Here’s your secret weapon.

Don’t fret, this won’t be hard:

Download the picture into a vector graphics. Try Inkscape (free).

Convert the picture into a black and white vector graphic.

Choose option path, then trace bitmap and finally brightness cutoff.

You can adjust the parameters to your liking. For this scene, brightness cutoff was selected with a threshold of 0.350 and checked ‘supress speckles’ with a size of 20.

Export the graphic as a bitmap. Remember to export the bitmap in the projector’s native resolution. This prevents the hassle of readjusting the picture later on.

6. Project the picture.

Use any image viewing app, but make sure it has a fullscreen option. Align the projector properly, ensure a focused picture and stabilize the projector.

7. Now, project the picture’s negative.

Choose the option to display the negative of the picture. In essence, this flips the black to white and vice versa. Doing so makes it easier on you. You won’t worry about painting accidental shadows.

8. Start painting.

Start with the smallest area first and confirm that your image will look good. If it does, awesome! Keep painting smaller areas with the 2mm brush, move onto the 12mm for sligthly larger poritons and use the roller for broad areas.

9. Stand back and enjoy your new masterpiece
