LED panels + projection mapping

So I have some big bright LED panels, and I was booked to bring them to a party by a particularly scatterbrained promoter. I talked with him and we agreed that one rig should run video for both, because the two of us playing different videos would just look messy. The question is, my panels are 2500 lumens per panel and I'll be using 6, and his projector is 2000 lumens. Will he be wasting his time with the projector? Will the panels look bad combined with his projection mapping? Will I completely drown out his effects?

Match the panels to the projectors, thats your best bet...otherwise it will not work...use the opacity/brightness to control your intensity of the panels from resolume, or you can do it from your processor...either way... that will be the only choice i see you having...
2 cents from Jamaica, currently in Trinidad lol...

The problem is that a 2K projector is really not bright enough for anything so if you dim your panels to match the brightness is the low-end beamer you might almost need to turn them off!
How big are you panels?

Forget it:-)
He will need 10x stronger projector (better two of them togheter), perfect white reflecting surface (or projection screen), and if you will dimm your wall to 1-5% of 100% on your processor, the LED wall will be stil much brighter..
