dblack Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Created my first sequence to the Minions singing Universal Fanfare. It was short enough and easy enough to start with learning. Just wondering if anyone would be willing to review and provide any feedback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasLights Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 How would you want to do that? Web/Zoom call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking I could just send someone the file but I guess that wouldn't work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got a new computer with Windows 11 and so I can do a screen recording now, so I'll do that before long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dblack Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 Here's a video preview. I actually changed it up from what I had initially because I added flood lightsm and picked yellow since it's the Minions, though I'm not sure how it'll actually look on the house. I'm open to any feedback because like I mentioned in the OP this was the first sequence I started with. I may at some point add in the LOR 8 mini tree kit, but for now this is what I'm working with. AC controller w/ 4 roof segments, 4 main level windows, 4 downstairs windows/garage doors, 4 spiral trees, and the LOR RGB flood light package.

gsmith37064 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Nice job. It looks good in the preview. Hopefully yellow will turn out well on your brick. You could plug one in now and test the color of the floods. Brick can throw the color off depending on the color of brick you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsmith37064 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 What are you using to reach your roof-line? Ladder, lift, hired help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hired someone to put lights up this year and he used a lift and provided all the lights. He said he would be willing to put my light new light strands up for me next year, so that's the current plan. If not, I think I can reach the sides with a ladder but would have to rent a lift for the peaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm working on finishing up my light strands and building frames for the windows. I'll probably order them soon though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took a tumble off the ladder and busted my shoulder. I had to have a plate and bolts installed. Not fun!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found one I can rent for $300-$400, but would rather he just come back and put them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
