Tracy West Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) With a tear in my eye..... And a chocolate bacon covered donut and foot long corn dog in my hands... I proudly announce that I finished the last sequence Children of the Sun!!! With 22 days to spare before build up! Whew!!!! Yes... I know the OCD in me will be going back over the sequences tweaking them but for the most part I am done! 27 LOR Channels and 340 DMX channels just about whooped my @$$ this year! It took me a long time to complete 6 sequences this year. Just about wore my eyes out! Now on to my short list of things to do to get ready! I need a hug!

Tracy West Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 Frankie and the Nebulons practicing their songs for the quickly approaching Halloween light display! I finished building my singing Alien frame today and put 33 strands of lights on it for the three faces. The jury is not out yet on the Lime Green LED lights on the Alien in the middle. They pale in comparison to the blue LEDs. It is getting close now to build up! Cannot wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracy West Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 I have been at it for three solid days trying to get things wired up. Then yesterday... Rain... all friggin day! I had to run around tarping everything. We have not had rain like that in quite awhile. Did not see that coming. Hopefully today I can finish getting everything wired up and hopefully everything will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just delayed things for me. I usually have everything done and video taped by this time. The heavy rain real slowed me down this year. Ready to get the show going!

Tracy West Posted October 16, 2013 Author Share Posted October 16, 2013 It was not that kind of problems with power.. I had one controller that I did not have a big enough power supply to drive the lights and that was my biggest problem, but now solved. When it rains that hard, I don't even turn on the lights. I tarp the props and go inside and drink coffee. We have one more possible night of rain on Friday and after that, they are saying nothing but sunshine and cool nights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
