Under a 2.4 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 1 rows of 500 mm tile flown, which is tight; ground-stack or go lower on trim. Along the 17.1 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 27 x 1 (5400 x 200 px, 211 kg, 4.3 kW).

Panel	Pitch	Wall (cols x rows)	Size	Resolution	Weight	Power (max)
Absen KLCOB 0.78	0.78 mm	22 x 1 = 22	13.2 x 0.3 m	16896 x 432	99 kg / 218 lb	1.9 kW, 9 A @ 208 V
Absen PL2.5 Plus V2	2.5 mm	27 x 1 = 27	13.5 x 0.5 m	5400 x 200	211 kg / 464 lb	4.3 kW, 21 A @ 208 V
Absen PL3.9 Plus V2	3.9 mm	27 x 1 = 27	13.5 x 0.5 m	3456 x 128	211 kg / 464 lb	3.8 kW, 18 A @ 208 V

Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.

Seating estimate

After a 12 x 7 m stage, Venetian- holds about 10 theater seats, 4 banquet seats at rounds of 10, or 3 classroom seats. Back row in theater is roughly 10.1 m from the downstage edge; the previz checks whether the bottom of the wall clears the heads in front.
