Halloween House Projection 2023 - This Is Halloween 

Thank you, Steve! I'm happy you liked it. Yes, with that many characters for 8 minutes, the computer was almost choking on the 150,000+ files it had to manage. But it's all worth it when watching the kids take it all in. These days, most of their entertainment comes from a little screen, so I'm happy to give them something different. 👻 🎃 Now, I'm waiting for you to upload your show!

How do you do this what software plz tell me it’s amazing I love it

Hi @exo-lsone. Thanks a million. I really appreciate it. Happy Halloween! 👻 🎃

Hi @shay_undefinedbeauty4773. Thanks for stopping by and watching. We love when the neighborhood shows up and supports the show. 💀🎃👻

Hi @mr.mister7280. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it and I'm happy you enjoyed it. You should post your shows here on RU-vid. I'd love to see what you do. 🎃

Hi Peter. Thanks, man. I'm happy you liked it. :)

Hi @ivanr.m.3830, Thank you so much for watching. I really appreciate it. I'm happy you liked it. 💀🎃👻

Hi @InkedMom101. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. I'm happy you enjoyed it. 😀

Ha ha - very funny, Rich. No TV special...re-runs from here on out. 😀 And the kids only stay because we serve the adults alcohol across the court. They're not going anywhere as long as that is flowing. 💀🎃👻

Hi @HalloweenDan. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I really appreciate it...and just so you know it: Those big bright walls of yours really beg for a spooky projection!! LOL. Thanks again, Dan, 🎃👍

@@ProjectThisHouse yes!! I’ve thought the same thing for some time.. the perfect canvas! I somehow don’t think I’ll ever live up to your epicness though! Can’t wait to see what you’ve got up your sleeves for next Halloween 🎃👻💀

@HalloweenDan, you don't need a big animation show on your walls right off the bat - you have all the action you need in all your decorations - but a spooky facade will help make a great backdrop to your setup for starters. Join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping" to get ideas, inspiration and help getting started. :)

Hi Rob. Thanks for taking the time to watch. I really appreciate it. See you soon! 😎👍

Hi @mariamirelez9259. Thank you so much for watching and the kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed it! 👻

Hi Simon. Thanks for watching. It means a lot to me that you liked it. I guess, if you want Disney to call you and offer you a job, you gotta work with some of their stuff, right? Maybe one of their copyright lawyers will send this up the grape vine. 😂

@@ProjectThisHousehaha that’s the way - keep poking them! If you land that one, bring me in also 😅 Seriously though man, amazing show - I’d LOVE to be able to get up to this level of 3D character animation, working silently in the background, but I’m so far away 🤣 absolutely amazing man.

@@JesterLaughs You can pick up the 3D animation super quick. Just look at our buddy @stevedublin6592 and how far he has taken it in only a couple of years. 😁👍

Hi @topogigiozinho. Thank you so much for watching and for your subscription. I'm glad you enjoyed it! 👻

@@ProjectThisHouse how not to enjoy it. You are amazing... cheers from Canada Montreal

@@topogigiozinho Thank you again....I love it when out little neighborhood projection makes it out into the World. :)

Ha ha, you always crack me up, Michael. Thank you so much for the kind words. I really value your opinion on my shows. This year I did choose a path that was more labor extensive because of all the characters, and as you know, I lost a weekend due to the computer giving up on me, so I'm not doing that again. 😀 And you don't have to put your own light under anything, your projections are top notch, and I have no idea how you manage to put out a handful of them so fast! I'll get back to you on the 3D modelling of your house.

Thank you, Robert. Nothing as elaborate as your fantastic Fantasia show, but good fun for the little ghouls in our neighborhood. 💀🎃👻

@@ProjectThisHouse I disagree, the original writing and story you put into your shows is always top notch which puts yours a notch above all others. Also you were robbed on that home haunter awards thing. It's fact.

@@ResolvedHomeProjections LOL - I didn't think anyone watched that award show. It's all good. Overall, my show is just a video shown on my house - the dude that won had a major setup with props, exterior lights and other effects, so he deserved the win. 😁

Thank you so much, @maicina555. I do it for the kids in the neighborhood, but comments like this is icing on the cake! Happy Halloween to you too. 🎃

Hi @flyingibispethouse. Thank you so much for watching. I'm happy you enjoyed it. 💀🎃👻

Hi @piocha88. Thank you for watching and the kind words.You can do it too. If you look back at my videos to where I started 10 years ago, you can see I started very simple. If you join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping", you can find lots of help, tips and tricks to get started. 🎃

Hi @elishasimmons4489. Thanks for watching. I'm happy you enjoy the projections.I can't really give out the soundtracks, as some of them include copyrighted material, and others have voiceovers I can't share without permission and compensation to the actor. But the music is out there, as is the voiceover guy. I linked to his account on Fiverr in some of the videos. :)

I’m so sorry. I don’t want you getting in trouble. Well, keep doing what you’re doing and you could scare a lot of people. I’m impressed.

LOL, no worries, Elisha. Keep up your good work too. You should release a collection of Halloween sound effects. :)

Hi @treebs9516. Thank you so much for stopping by and watching. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to sell the projections. To refit them to another house shape is almost like starting completely over, and I barely have the time to make my own show every year. Maybe when I retire I could look into it, but by then, I'm sure every house has LED walls. 😂

Hi @Dragon359. Thanks for watching. I'm happy you enjoyed it. 🎃

Thank you, @hugoway7142. I'm happy you enjoyed it. 👻

Hi @ki-pattao9030. I don't know about that, but thank you so much for watching. I'm happy you enjoyed it. 🎃

@@ProjectThisHouse Like always, See you next Halloween.

Hi @CastChaos. Thank you so much for swinging by the channel and watching. I'm happy you liked it. 💀🎃👻

Hi @chanteleosei-tutu9722. Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. 👻 🎃

@@ProjectThisHouse I’m from the UK 🇬🇧 we don’t get to see these spectacular things in our neighbourhood. Thanks for the entertainment 🧡

@chanteleosei-tutu9722, I know of a couple of creators in the UK. You can try and look at their stuff here on RU-vid at @JesterLaughs, @LumaBox and at @stevedublin6592. I'm sure there are more if you search. Maybe one of them are close to you. 🎃

Hi @treebs9516. I've done this for the last 10 years, so I have had my share of trial and errors over the years. On the upside, it has considerably cut down on the time it takes me to to make a show now, and although it's hard to put a timeframe on this because I work on it a little here and there after work, I'd say about three weeks. :)

Hi @SophiaX_X. Thank you so much for watching. I had always planned to do some tutorials, but never found the time. However, you're in luck because others have made great videos explaining how this is done. Just search for "House Projection Mapping Tutorial" here on RU-vid, or join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping" for help, tips and tricks. 💀🎃👻

@ProjectThisHouse Thank you, what projector do you recommend for a beginner?

​@@Gl1tch_Legion It really depends. Here are some of the factors you need to take into account when deciding on a projector: 1. How much room do you have in front of your house to place the projector? This will decide if you can go with a regular projector (plenty of room), or if you need a projector with a wide angle lens (limited room). The wide angle lens projectors are called "short throw"-projectors, and seem to be what most people use. 2. What color walls does your house have, and how much incoming light from neighbors and street lights do you get? This will decide how powerful the projector needs to be to counter that. The projector's light intensity is measured in ANSI Lumens, and the darker your walls are and the more incoming light you have, the more lumens you need for your projection to stand out. 3. What is your budget? There are projectors in all price ranges, and go from less than $50 for a used projector on eBay to over $100K+ for a professional high end projector. Personally, I started with a BenQ MX819ST with 3000 lumens I got on eBay for less than $100. This is a short throw projector, as I don't have much room in front of my house. The lumens are on the low side, but my house walls are light colored and I can block most of the incoming light from neighbors and street lights. I have since beefed up the power a bit, and I'm now using an Optoma ZH406ST laser projector with 4200 lumens. I believe I got that one for around $1500 - also on eBay. My suggestion is getting something cheap to get some experience, so you don't buy something too expensive before finding out is projection mapping is something for you.

Hi @bloodrunsclear. Thank you so much for watching and subscribing. I'm happy you liked it. :)

@@ProjectThisHouse You're very kind! Really impressed by your creativity :D

Thank you, @bloodrunsclear. I really appreciate it. I checked out your trailers as well. Talk about creativity!! :)

@@ProjectThisHouse I'm very flattered :)

Hi @dastggg. Thanks for watching. If you're asking how I got the idea to do projection mapping to begin with, then we go back about 10 years, when I saw the celebration of the 100th year anniversary of the Tour De France (bike race) in Paris. They did an awesome show projecting onto the Arc de Triomphe, and I thought it could be cool to try it on my house. If your question was about this year's show, then it was at the beginning of October. I don't really have time to work on my shows until that month. 🎃

@@ProjectThisHouse nice so it came from 100th year anniversary of the Tour De France lightshow

@@dastggg Yes. Here's a link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5ZwQTVGEJxU.html Around the 7:20 min mark. Before judging it, remember it's 10 years old. 🎃

Hi @yoshicrew9532. Thanks for watching. Yes, we had three of the Plant vs Zombies sneak into our projection this year. We're big fans of the game. :)

Hi Dan. Yes, it’s Chris Sarandon voicing Jack. Thanks for watching. :)

@@ProjectThisHouse how did you even get him!?

@danshull1331 Oh, he didn't do it for me. I found all his voiceover lines from Disney's Infinity videogame. Then picked the ones that would fit in my storyline. :)

@@ProjectThisHouse Oh

Hi Vicky. Thank you so much for all your kind words and for watching. I love when our little projection show makes it out into the World, and isn't just confined to our neighborhood. If you're interested in learning how to do this, there are several tutorials here on RU-vid you can follow. Just search for "projection mapping tutorial". You can also join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping", where you can find inspiration and get help to get started. You can also find creators there who'll make a show for you for a fee. Thanks again for watching. 😎👍

​@@ProjectThisHouse I will surely look for the tutorial you suggest and try to create my own show. I have 1 year of time in order to study and try to realize it!!! 😋 You are very kind and gave me some very useful suggestions 🔝. Thank you very much 🙏 and have a great day 😘. Vicky

@@user-xf2xv8vh9m You are most welcome, Vicky. 🎃

Hi @cryptowolf4471. Thank for watching, I really appreciate it. No, I don't sell the projections or element from them. I simply don't have the time to do it. Maybe one day when I retire from working. :)

Hi @calistapichipull2155. Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. 👻 🎃
