I helped build this wall: http://blog.x37v.info/2012/10/10/led-wall
Controlled with video.  It was not cheap but relative to commercial
solutions, not bad at all.  For a smaller section like you're talking, it
wouldn't be too bad.  It is quite bright.

My partner posted some of the build details here:

These LED strips are much nicer to deal with than trying to build up your
own panels with individual LEDs.  There are some other LED strips out there
too, some that are probably even less dense and likely less expensive if
you don't need the resolution.
