A light-emissive module (114), typically utilizing one or more LEDs (132R, 132G, and 132B), is configured so that the maximum intensity of the module's light emission occurs along a direction (138) materially non-perpendicular to the back surface (136) of the module's supporting body (130). An active image-generating screen (102) contains a plurality of block facets (112), each containing a plurality of the light-emissive modules arranged so that their maximum light-intensity directions are largely the same. The block facets are configured to approximate a curved surface. The maximum light-intensity directions (158) of the block facets are thus materially slanted to one another. The image-generating screen presents a video image. A display system suitable for a motion simulator, such as a flight simulator, is formed by combining the screen with a reflective collimator (104).
