Thread: Hallowindow 2009

OH...BTW

Skeletal...Hallowindow was a HUGE hit last night. it was the backdrop of my grave yard. I put a 144" diag. screen in my front yard screened porch, everyone LOVED it...had my sub and speakers cranked with the dvd audio and other lightning and background audio...was awesome.

Will see how the video came out and try and post....Keep the dvd's coming PLEASE

irishgond: The middle of the graveyard was lit by some regular floods. The far left area was lit with LED Floods. I prefer the LED floods, and will switch all over next year.

Oh, and yes, Mark...Thank you for your continued efforts in the production of the Hallowindow "series". Especially thank you for working with me on my screw up of this years order!! BTW - The big green eye always gets a lot of talk! Everyone loves that one, including the little ones!

Whats the wattage on the LED spots? I almost went with some this year...lemme know as I'm gonna switch to them for next year.

We haven't bought a projector yet (maybe next year) and hubby didn't think he could borrow one from work this year so unfortunately we were Hallowindow-less this year. And it got noticed! Hubby heard one boy in a group of kids walking up to our house say "this is the house that had those cool eyes last year...." so yes, the eyes are a big hit and Hallowindows creates something memorable for all who see it. I think DH was feeling kind of bad that we didn't run it this year so hope that motivates him to go shopping for next year.

After our ToTers died down this year, we went to a local neighborhood graveyard haunt that has been advertised in our paper over the last few years. Nice job, a number of animated gravestones and props. The neighbors running it said they were looking to change it up for next year and I gave them your URL so maybe you'll get a sale out of it. They were doing some small projection type stuff on gravestones already and I think Hallowindows would be a perfect fit for them. They had this monsterous sound system out front and lightning up in their trees so they do like to go the extra mile for the kids.

Nice work Mark and we will definitely be adding to our Hallowindows DVD collection. This years' DVD looked fantastic.

As Always, Hallowindow is the perfect thing to cap off my haunt. This year I edited the video and timed it with 2 projectors and 2 dvd players. I use this in conjunction with my Magic Mirror prop.

Not as many kids this year as last year, but they came in large packs. I had a lineup at my steps. The parents always enjoy watching it, and I get many return visitors just to watch the show. Thanks Mark and keep them coming!

Sorry for the poor quality video, all I had available to record was my Digicam on 320x240 mode. This was the test run the night before to make sure everything was working well. Also used your scrim material technique for both windows. It really makes a difference in the definition of the projected details.
