Here's a new projection effect I just finished. It's a tombstone that ages and experiences a few ghostly shenanigans. I'm very pleased with how it turned out.

EDIT 7/7/12:
Ta-da! A new Haunted Tombstone:

Plus, both Haunted Tombstones together, from one projector:

This was a great idea and well executed. Lets see that is item number 427 that I would like to add to my haunt (and not get to for a long time).

Mr. Chicken, you never cease to amaze me with your work. What a great idea. Thanks for sharing that! I can see that ending up at the Disney Haunted Mansion!

I think I'll be knocking on your blogspot next month for the video. Nice job! Nicely explained and I doubt a novice to this would feel intimidated by anything.

Now I'm feeling very happy that I was able to get a few of the discontinued projectors that CVS had a while back. Didn't know why I needed more than one when I was buying them. This will put them to good use for sure.

I haven't spent any time over at your blogspot yet but did you set up the mp4s as separate tracks so each one can be looped on its own? It would be nice to set up a few tombstones with projections.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone! I'm so pleased you all like it do much!

Terra, I should have known you were behind that! :D

I haven't done that yet, but I've received a couple of requests, so I'll try to get around to it next week.

Can someone educate me on projectors? I don't have any "projector" props and I don't know anything about them/ A quick eBay search shows there are many different versions with a wide range of cost.

What would people recommend? What is a good method for loading images?

P.S. I found this litle guy on eBay for $82.99 + Free Shipping. Anyone have this?
