Museums are the exception, transporting us to the past and future, and offering a glimpse of AV’s highest potential. Given their abilities to create stimulating experiences, are museum exhibit designers a breed apart, and among the most favored clients in the AV realm? “We certainly enjoy working with museums, especially those that are tapping their creative resources to deliver interactive environments,” said Michael Bridwell, director of marketing for Digital Projection, Inc. The combination of education plus entertainment makes for incredibly fertile possibilities, he added. “It’s always interesting to see how the venues enlist technology to create an impactful experience.

I love museum exhibit designers. Even when I don't want to be at a museum, a good exhibit can get me excited and engaged. Some of my personal favorites tend to be at the Franklin Institute, their Narnia and Star Trek exhibits being my top two. These displays mix interactive and presentational elements to allow the visitor to be as hands-on or as hands-off as they like. This variety also allows the exhibit to be interesting to a wider range of visitors.
