+(This concludes the top part - the calculations for the hung models)
+==== Lower part: Mediaspinners, standing on the ground ====
+{{:ai:examples:movingscreens:bottom_mediaspinners.png?450|Mediaspinner Screens}}
+This part is pretty much straight-forward: each one of the six screens which are standing in mediaspinners on the ground is represented by its own screen fixtures so that each one can be loaded its own model (again, distinct by the UV mapping), and can be controlled, as per the y roation, via Artnet from the Mediaspinner controller.
+This is done in a little subpatch: MediaSpinner ArtNet
+=== MediaSpinner ArtNet ===
+{{:ai:examples:movingscreens:mediaspinner_artnet.png?300|Mediaspinner ArtNet subpatch}}
+This subpatch simply allows to set the DMX addresses per mediaspinner - each one takes two DMX channels as 16bit. From the given start address per spinner, the next channel is computed. Then the ''ArtNet Input Large'' gets us the values, which are then being combined to a 16bit value (0...65,535), which is then normalized (0...1) and multiplied by the full travel (450 degrees). The result is returned, and used as y_rotation parameter ''y Angle Adj.'' for the respective spinner.
+==== Bottom: the projector outputs ====
+{{:ai:examples:movingscreens:projectors.png?450|Projector outputs}}
+Finally, at the very bottom of the stagepatch, the projectors are defined. Note that again we didn't use softedge, but assigned each screen to a specific projector - see [[ai:examples:advancedoutputpatch:advancedoutputpatch|]] for details (essentially it is disabling ''Use All Fixtures'' per projector, and patching the screen fixture outputs to the respective inputs).
