Moody Family Christmas 2013 Videos

[moodytx]

Finally finished editing all the of the 2013 display videos and got them uploaded on Vimeo and linked on our website.

Every year we try to add something new to the display.

This year we reworked the Merry Christmas sign. As some might remember, 2012 was a tough weather year for us. On Christmas day 2012 we had a 75mph wind gust that took the sign off the roof and deposited it rather unceremoniously in the front yard. For 2013 we built a new steel frame and replaced the red and green C9 bulbs with 30mm pixels.

We also added 8 candy canes from HolidayCoro (pixel based), 4 leaping arches using RGB pixel strips and PEX tubing and a 12 candy cane pinwheel.

All of the 2013 video’s can be found here:

Great job, I like the yard matrix. Looks like a good use for my retired megatree strings.

Exactly what I was thinking...now I'm wishing I would have picked up some more single strand color lights after Christmas :-(

Thank you everyone..not sure if its really noticeable in the videos, but the yard grid is made from multicolor strings as are the 28 mini trees

Really great stuff Bob.  Wish I could do all that   Looks like that was done with LSP based on the transistions I saw.

I appreciate all the feedback.
All sequencing was done with LOR and Superstar.
We mixed LOR controllers, Minleon AC (DMX) controller, J1sys D2 and J1sys P2 controllers to tie it all together.
The Pinwheel was an afterthought using the Minleon controller (given to me by Ron at the LoneStar Holidays 2013 Academy). It was literally a 2 hour project.

thanks again to everyone.. we are using January to get caught up on video, web updates and a TON of household projects but we are back in the saddle come February for Christmas 2014.
