My Display Knows What You Did In The Dark

[Rapajez]

So, just had time to add one song this year (and re-use some of last year's). I decided to mash 2 Fall Out Boy songs together. "My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up)", and "Alone Together", their follow-up single, which I assumed would be more popular by the time the display was live.

 

This year I just added another 16-channel controller, wanted to break up the existing lights and add a few more colors. 

 

 

I'm most proud of the "Ashes" at 1:30.

Thank you sir! I drilled light-sized holes through a piece of re-enforced plywood and pushed the lights through. Probably not the most efficient method...but got the job done.

Thank you! Unfortunately, that was homemade. There HAD to be an easier method to do this, but what we did was re-enforced 2 peices of plywood with 2x4's, then used a hinge to connect the two in a manner that allows us to fold the whole thing in half for storage. Then we used a projector to project the Santa onto the plywood, and drilled a hole for each individual light. The lights were just the right size that you could push them through the holes, and they'd stay put unless you pulled them out at a perfect angle.
