Projection Mapping My House with an 8,000 Lumen MONSTER

Other Gear:

Instead of a typical Christmas light show, we decided to put our own spin on the Christmas light show with projection mapping. This isn't your everyday Christmas Projector, we're using an 8,000 lumen Epson L1300U. We were inspired by Disney's Happily Ever After fireworks and projection show. You might have seen Christmas projections before, but we wanted to take it to the next level by projection mapping our entire house and increasing the quality vs what we did in 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022. Don't let projection mapping intimidate you. There are easy ways to start projection mapping shows and projection mapping projects.

Mate - your videos are honestly some of the best in your category, really interesting and entertaining. My guess this time next year you will have 4x your subscribers if you keep the great videos up. Great work!

I didn’t realize projector glass was a thing. Very cool. Awesome set up. Thanks for sharing.😮

Where is the Video of the show? the card you mentioned doesnt show it.

[leogarcia]

great video! where did you get the white material/sheets from? I have dark brick as well

[jonahplayscello]

Just do a normal Christmas light show like mine, it looks way better.

I used Falcon player and an old Raspberry Pi 3 to run my Pixel tree in the front yard last Christmas. It was so much fun I did a New Years countdown timer and Fireworks display that played on the tree after Christmas. Well, the Fireworks display only happened at midnight on 12/31

Dadtastic 😂 unreal this isn’t your day job. good stuff

[njdotson]

I don't know how possible this kind of thing would be in my area because temperatures could get to 0 F one day or 100 F another day. I've seen projector enclosures but I'm not sure how those can regulate temperature that well

[paulhinsky]

can't wait to see next year's show when you incorporate the moving-head lights

[PeterPociask]

Have you done a video on pixel wrapping your trees? Do they stay up year round?

I am going for it! I got an old Panasonic PT-DX100 DLP 10, 000 Lumen projector from a Bid place (pretty Cheap). My house is all brick beige/Brownish color. Not sure how it will look, but worth the try. I still need to figure out many things, specially the projector stand. I already learning Davinci Resolve, not very intuitive but powerful. Thank your for all the information, very useful.

I have all the equipment except for Rasberry PI. I wanted to have my shows turn on automatically much like Luxedo....can you direct me to a link on how to?

Man you have to consider moving to a new house😂. Whenever we look at a new houses, projection surface is my #1 criteria. 😂

[Alexis-hecm]

Is a 6200/7000 lumens video projector sufficient for a projection surface of 12 meters long by 6 meters high? it is a distance of approximately 10 to 20 meters. Thank you for your reply ! =)

sorry for my English, I'm French :/

[franchebur]

Where do you live I would like something like that

[CharlesCornettFL]

Didn't you say in a video a few days ago that you had posted this years show in it's entirety? I can't seem to find it.

[lorenzodicapo]

It would suck to live anywhere near this.

[jason]

This was great and very informative, thanks! Definitely will be looking forward to that tutorial in 2024, and in the meantime, will be checking out and messing around with Davinci Resolve and Falcon Player.

[samuelvanderford]

I can't find the full show video anywhere. Has it been posted yet?

I'm looking to get into projection mapping, but most of my house is brick. Is it still possible to have a decent show with brick, or will it not work at all? I saw one video where a guy sprayed the front of his house with clear reflective paint. Not sure if there are other solutions for brick to make this work.
