Here is a video of one song that I did this year. The quality is not so great and I should have zoomed closer; I'll try to capture a better quality version tomorrow. Enjoy.

Bill....

Very very nice indeed!. I wouldn't change a thing on your video. If you shoot it closer, you'll have to do a lot more panning to get all the action in. It's much easier to get a sense of everything by using a wide shot. (take it from me, I've been in a videographer for more than 30 years.) Although, it would be nice to see a closeup of the character just behind your arches.

I love the music you chose too. It demonstrated to me how effective it is to use the dimming aspects of Vixen to keep the pace going especially on a slower paced music track. And for this newby, your video is already giving me ideas for next year.

Thanks again for the great work and have a Merry Christmas!

Bill, That is really nice. I like the arches too. Can't wait to add dimming to my show next year. Great work. Looks like the penguin was orchestrating - was that the plan?

mahoo313 - My house is on Hemlock Hill, Orchard Park. This stree is part of Eagle Heights area; PM me if you need better directions.

Brad - 7 channels per arch, 50 lights per channel, wrapped around an 8 foot piece of PVC. I started with strings of 100 lights and felt they were over powering so I went with 50's. I'm happy with the look and after four weeks running the live show I'm still pleased with the look. I had planned on a splash pool at the base of each arch but never did get around to it. When there is snow on the ground there reflection at the base is kinda nice, just like a splash pool.
