The Difference Between LED vs Projector Screens
What’s the difference between LED vs projector screens?
There are numerous differences between LED vs projector screens, with the main one being that LED screens are visible 24 hours a day in any setting, whereas projector screens require minimal lighting for optimal viewing. This does not mean that LED screens are inherently the better choice; it all depends on your event type, circumstances, and location. Follow the guide below and keep in mind what attributes are most beneficial for your event to find the best screen for you.
Outdoor Inflatable Projector Screen
The outdoor projector screen experience has been a staple of FunFlicks® since the beginning, and such events remain our most popular to this day. We bring the ultimate outdoor movie experience to life with state-of-the-art inflatable screens in a range of sizes, crystal-clear laser projection, and powerful high-definition sound.
What can outdoor projector screens be used for?
Need a small inflatable screen for a backyard birthday party? We’ve done thousands of those with our Backyard 16’, the perfect choice for more intimate gatherings. Looking for a gigantic outdoor movie screen arrangement for a city drive-in with hundreds of cars? Our Xtreme 50' is one of the largest in the United States, capable of bringing the outdoor movie experience to crowds of 5,000.
What sized screens ae available?
No matter the occasion, our inflatable screens come in a variety of sizes to fit your needs perfectly. From schools and churches to parks, businesses, neighborhoods, and family gatherings, people across the country keep coming back to FunFlicks® for unforgettable experiences. Whether it’s outdoor movies, live sporting events, concerts, video game tournaments, karaoke parties, classic drive-ins, or more, we bring the magic to every event.
When can I start my outdoor movie?
For an outdoor projector screen event, you are going to want to start your movie once it’s dark. Otherwise, the display will look flushed out and difficult to see; the sun is much brighter than even the most powerful projector. We recommend starting your movie about 10-15 minutes after sunset, depending on where you are in relation to the equator.
What can I do before my outdoor movie party?
If you want to keep the audience engaged before the movie starts, trivia, slides, interactive advertisements, or karaoke with high-contrast imaging on the screen are great things to put on before the movie. For summer parties when the sun sets later, keep in mind the estimated time the movie will end and be aware of local noise ordinances. If you need to show your movie earlier, consider watching an animated film with bright colors and a short runtime.

Indoor Inflatable Projector Screen
Some customers will choose to have an indoor inflatable event to combat bad weather and the brightness of the sun. Live sporting events that start during the day benefit from an indoor projector party if the setting is dark enough. It's just not the same watching the big game when it's not live. When planning an indoor event, make sure that the area is large enough for the screen and the people in attendance. Having the event in an auditorium, barn, garage, or any large venue is a great choice. As long as there's minimal light and enough space to accommodate the screen and audience, your indoor inflatable screen event is sure to be a blast.

Indoor Fast-Fold Screen Projector Screen
Our fast-fold screens are the best choice for you if you want to do a smaller indoor event but are worried that an inflatable screen may not fit. They have a great-looking seamless display, perfect for high-quality projection. Not only do they look amazing, but they are also extremely fast to set up. Fast-folds are the most affordable rental option and are best for your conference hall, living room, classroom, or any place with limited space. If you want to use the setups outside, keep in mind that they are not weatherproof or wind-resistant and must be shown in the dark for optimal viewing.

LED Screens
Are you looking for the highest-quality screen that can be shown at any time? Then our LED trailers and LED walls are great choices for you. Both use light-emitting diodes (LED) to generate bright light via electroluminescence; our panels are highly visible even in direct sunlight. Not only are they bright, but they’re also energy efficient and don’t produce any heat or UV emissions considered harmful to the environment. Unlike other display technologies, our LED screens are rated IP65 and do an amazing job of withstanding rain, snow, wind, or dust. Day or night, rain or shine, our mobile LED trailers and LED walls will amaze you and are an excellent premium choice.
Mobile LED Trailer
Our mobile LED trailers are highly portable and can be set up in under 30 minutes with minimal staff. Do you need a screen for your small company movie party? The Max Light is a nice option for parties with crowd sizes under 50 people. Are you wanting to throw a huge tailgate watch party? Cheer on your team with our largest trailer screen, the MAX 2313, for an unforgettable fan experience. Our fleet comes in a variety of sizes for events of different sizes. No power supply is needed for your mobile LED trailer event. Each trailer has a generator ready to go. The portability, quick set-up, 24-hour visibility, and premium quality of our mobile LED screens set them apart from the others and make them a great choice for almost any event.

LED Modular Wall
Consider renting an LED wall if you want the premium quality of LED in almost any location. Similar to the mobile LED trailers, our LED walls come in many different sizes. Modular panels can be set up on a stage, in a building, on a rooftop, or almost anywhere. LED trailers cannot get in tight places like our LED walls can. However, the panels take a longer time to set up and require more staff than an LED trailer event.
