Great job! last year's story was hilarious, and this year's song was well crafted. Awesome touch adding in the trees. Thank you for all the time and effort, and for sharing with the world! ~Be Blessed
Hi Aliwant Izu. Thank you for the kind words. I'm happy you enjoyed it. I appreciate you watching our shows. It makes it all worth while when people tell us they enjoy them. :)
Hi cribbles. Thank you for watching and the kind words. I must admit it's kinda cool when our show makes its way outside our little neighborhood, so feel free to share. :)

Wow, thank you, Anthony. I really appreciate your kind words. I love it when people outside our neighborhood get to watch and enjoy the projections. Thanks again. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse You should really sell your videos for other mappers, speaking for myself. If I was to send you my mapping detail and a picture of my house then you could do it? There are a few people that are selling videos and that's what they ask from people for them to do it. Buuuuuuut like I said yours are the best ones and I want yours. PLEEEEEEEEEEASE lol
@@gettum Well, the way my projections are made makes it way too time consuming formatting it to another house. It's basically a completely redo, start-from-scratch process. The people that sell projections have much simpler 2D elements that are easy to reposition and re-animate. I have too much 3D stuff in mine and a story that is using the features of my house (doors, windows, roof etc.), so unfortunately it isn't a path I can take. :)
Hi Rachel Alexander. Yes, I never thought anything would show up on the trees because they're dark green, but this year I tried, and they actually do work. My mapping of the trees need to be redone, as they've grown since I last did it, so the video didn't really fit them that well - ha ha. Thanks for watching. :)
Simply amazing!! I love the soundtrack and the story! - and impeccably executed as always!! Your title as king of mapping remains firmly intact - now excuse me, im off to watch again (and again)
Ha ha - thank you Steve. You're too kind. I'm sure you recognized a bunch of the characters. I haven't had a chance to look at other projections yet. Did you find the time to do one this year?
@@ProjectThisHouse didn’t really work well - 3D elements looked terrible on the brick with the ambient light from our new street lights -so I threw a few quick scenes together but disappointed not to really roadtest the 3D stuff - next year with a different projector config 😊
@@stevedublin6592 Well, you had your hands full with all the animations you guys created. I'm sure all that experience and new knowledge will make for a great show next year. Is there no way to cover the street light?
Very cool! I've been waiting to see this all year, and you never disappoint. The 3D floating light alone is awesome. Forget the fact you wrote a song and animated you own characters for crying out loud!

Thanks, Michael. I appreciate all the kind words. The floating light was all I had as an idea when October came around...I never imagined it was going to end up as a musical piece.

@@seanporter2687 This was done with the Optoma EH460ST (same model as the Optoma GT1080HDR) but I've since moved on to a laser projector for a more crisp and dynamic image: Optoma ZH406ST (same model as Optoma GT1090HDR).
Hi TheHyperWolf. Thanks for watching. I too was wondering what I was going to do a month ago. LOL! I guess it turned out okay if you found it cool to watch. :)
Love this. Do you have any video's showing your projectors and how you are stacking them? I'm new to this so I would love some technical information. Do you cover your windows? Thanks. Great work.
Hi Tim Geer. Thanks for watching. I’m happy you enjoyed it. If you put down an email address, I can send you an explaination and a pic of my projector setup. I do cover all windows. It only takes me 5 mins to do it, so easy peasy. :)
A great show as always! My jaw dropped when I watched the traveling spot light in the beginning. The amount of 3d work you put into this was highlighted in every last shadow! The altering of the Atmos Trick or treat file to include your character was the cherry on top! Well done sir! Until Next year! Unless you want to pick up Christmas this year ;)
Hi Daniel. Thank you for the kind words. We all find inspiration through others' work, and I wanted to do that light effect since I saw it in a video from a projection festival somewhere. It is a big bang for little effort, since the house is already modeled. :) And well spotted with the altered AtmosFX clip, LOL. No Christmas projection for me this year, as we'll be out of the country. :)
HI there Holloweenqueen (love the name!). Thanks for dropping by, I really appreciate you watching. I've used several projector models over the years, but most recently BenQ MX819ST and Optoma EH460ST. Last Halloween, I even tried to stack a couple of the Optomas, to see if it gave me more power. I did, but it's very hard to line them up perfectly, so I think I'll drop that for this year. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse thank you! I have only a little projector for inside but I want to expand to outdoors next year so I really appreciate it! Love what you’ve done, it’s so unique and awesome!
@@holoweenqueen6882 thank you for the kind words. It's not the size of the projector that matters (although it helps), but the content you create. If you only have a small projector, projecting something onto a decoration could have same wauw effect for your visitors. E.g. an open casket with a skeleton inside telling jokes or animated tombstones. It's only the imagination (and time) that's the limit. :)
Hi ReeceA010. Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. To cover the whole house, you keep moving the projector back until that is achieved. Unfortunately, you lose light intensity for every step, so the goal is to find a projector that cast the widest image possible, so you can stay close to the house. Those projectors are called "short throw" projectors (don't go for an "ultra short throw", as they'll be up too close and distort everything) and are a little harder to find than regular projectors. :)
Hi LexaPr0. Thanks for watching. For this video I used Optoma's EH460ST with 4200 lumens, but I've used BenQ MX819ST with 3000 lumens in the past. Both are short throw projectors, so I can place them closer to the house and still cover it all. The quality and intensity of the projection all depends on the color of your walls and incoming light from neighbors and street lights + of course the content of the video you project. Darker walls are harder to project on and incoming light will wash out the image. :)
Wow, you did some singing huh? I'd have to perhaps have a little liquid courage myself if I had to sing. XD Still it's always good to see your projections every year, wish I was there to see it in person!
Hi Dragon359. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it. I'm happy you enjoyed it. It was a nerve wrecking time right before pushing "play" for the first run. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse Admittedly, the one you made in 2019 is my favorite of yours even though it didn't go well with the younger audience, but I know why you took a different direction for future ones. I'll be looking forward to next years projection!
@@Dragon359 Thank you, I also think the 2019 was the best one so far, but the backlash to the stabbing scene definitely shaped my options for the future. LOL.
I LOVE YOUR WORK! I wish we had you in my neighborhood. Miami has lost its zest for spooky season. Any chance you’ll be making any “how to..” videos any time soon? I’m very curious about the process and wondering if I could make something of my own. You’re the best I’ve seen on here so it would be an honor to learn from you.
Hi Charlie Elias Alexander. Thanks for watching and your super kind words. I have always planned to do a how-to video, but since I barely have time to make the actual Halloween projections, I've never gotten around to actually doing it. However, there are several others that have created tutorials on projection mapping, so there's plenty of info out there. A good place to start is joining the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping". If you do get started with those, I'm always available to answer questions should you evolve into more of the 3D look I'm doing. :)
I haven't done Christmas yet. Primarily because it's not a one-night kinda thing like Halloween, where I can set the projector up in the street and monitor it throughout the evening. I don't have time to do that multiple evening throughout December.
I use After Effects, Photoshop and Cinema4D, but have not done any tutorials. I would suggest you visit LumaBox or Phillips Projections here on RUclips for their very informative introduction-series to Projection Mapping. :)
Hi I will like to do this can I get more information ☺ 🙂 plz thanks you what to buy where to buy and what to do on the projection on the wall .if the house is dark paint what you recommend thanks .
Hi brayden Z. Thank you for watching. I suggest you join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping", where you can find answers to all your questions. About the dark walls, that is a problem, and can usually only be solved by either: getting a very powerful projector ($$$$) or by re-painting your house. :)
I have been trying to do this for a couple years now, I am now all in for this Halloween. I have been watching your videos for years, thank you for uploading. just need to know your projector model and what sound devices do you use.
Hi JZ. Thank you for watching my projections and your kind words. I’m happy you like them. For this projection, I’m using Optoma’s EH460ST and for the sound I’m using a Behringer EPS500 PA System
Hi @Ronangroves02. Thanks for watching. I wish I had the time to do Christmas too,..and you're right: This is so much more impressive in person because of the scale of it. :)
I love the music! Amazing work. I agree you should copyright the song. I found myself humming it today LOL. Your work is always inspiring. Can't wait to see the next one!
Thank you, Dustin. I really appreciate you swinging by and watching. I just love how the projection community has totally exploded and awesome stuff is popping up everywhere - and yours sit right up there with the best. It certainly keeps me on my toes. :)
Thanks for the kind words! I have been watching your stuff for years. It inspired me to get started. I see so many folks getting into the hobby because of you and a few others that have been doing this for a while. Hopefully, I can speed up my development time. That is the one minus. These projects just take so much time...
@@SeasonedProjections Well, it will get faster every year. The period with trial and error is usually where most of the time is spent, and as experience builds, you will cut down on this. E.g. once I had made the song for this year's projection, the rest took only two weeks. The first couple of years, I was spending months figuring out what worked and what didn't. LOL. :)
How have I not seen this until now!! Glad you dropped on my video as I may have missed it otherwise! Beautiful design and great story telling! Love the 3D work - cinema 4D? I’ve been considering putting myself through a boot camp of unreal engine in January but then I read so much about cinema 4D, but I think unreal may offer me more flexibility on the transitions and effects which exists in my mind 🤯 I’m trying to research the pros and cons before I go full scale time investment on one of them.
Hi Simon. Thank you for watching. RUclips is a jungle and it's easy to miss videos. I do it all the time, and then find unseen Halloween creations 7 month later in the summer time. LOL. Yes, I'm using Cinema4D. I took the time to model my house a few years back, so now I just have to add features (e.g. balconies, windows, doors) each year, that changes the look from previous themes. Super easy and you know the shadows will be realistic because...well, they're real! Before diving into Cinema4D, I'd give Blender a good look. If I was starting from scratch, I'd chose the free path instead of expensive software, but I've already put too many years into Cinema4D to jump ship now. :)
Hi @nathanhepp5017. Thanks for watching. No, it isn't a dumb question at all. I make most of my animations myself in a 3D program called Cinema4D, but there are some creators out there that make animations and sell them: AtmosFX.com and HallowFX.com to name a couple :)
I think I have asked you this before, but do you create all your characters in a 3D modeling program? And if so, which program do you use to model and animate them?
Hi Nate V. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I actually buy the models on various 3D sites and then alter them a little bit. They cost anywhere from $0 to $30. I then animate them in Cinema4D and render them out for assembly in AfterEffects. :)
Hi dinkieminkie roblox. Thanks for stopping by and watching. There are several good tutorials out there on the web, so maybe you could be the one doing it in your neighborhood? :)
Hi gary caruloff. Thanks for stopping by and watching. Projection mapping is when you project a video onto an object - in this case a house - having made the video specifically to fit that object, so it matches the features or shape. That's why my projection won't match any other house, and therefore can't be transferred. If you google "projection mapping tutorial", you'll find several real good explanations on how to get started making your own. :)
Hi Ryan Brown. Thanks for stopping by and watching. This is in principle done with a single projector, but to get a little more light intensity, I actually stack three identical projectors and align them so they each show the same image on top of each other. :)
@@doradelgado3411 Thank you so much for watching. Unfortunately I don't do this for others. Primarily because I don't have the time, but also because the 3D modelling in this, simply does not just transfer to another housemodel, so it would take waaay too much work to redo it, and I would have to charge waaay to much. :)
Hi Marcelles Fazel. Unfortunately, I don't sell my shows. If you're looking for someone to make a projection show for you or your school, you can join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping". There are several members there that make and sell shows. Good luck. :)
Hi Ruben's Window Tint LLC. Thanks for watching. I really appreciate it. Unfortunately this is not for sale, as it'll only fit my exact house model. To re-format it to another house shape would require me to start from scratch, and I would have to charge too much for it. :)
Hi ladynks2000. Thanks for stopping by. I must admit that since 8 years has passed without me finding the time to make even a single How-To video, the prospects do not look good. LOL. However, luckily there are people out there with more energy and drive than me, that have made several really informative videos on the matter. Just google "Projection Mapping Tutorial", and a bunch should show up. :)

Ahoy The Pirates of North Court. Thank you so much for sailing by and watching - even if you guys can only watch with the one eye not wearing an eye patch. I'm happy you enjoyed it. :)
Hi Clown town. Thanks for stopping by and watching. No, unfortunately I don't sell the projections. First of all, because all of them includes elements I don't have the rights to re-sell (e.g. from AtmosFX). Secondly, because my projections ONLY fit my house model. Re-fitting it to someone else's house would be very time consuming and will in most cases require a completely new layout. So it would not be worth my time to offer it as a service, even if I would charge money for it. It would be too expensive for you. 😜
@@ProjectThisHouse Maybe so, But I love it how you make great light show on a house for Halloween. You can make a Light Show from Hell with Fire, Devils, Demons, Incubus and Succubus🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hi JR Mr, thanks for swinging by and watching. I'm happy you liked it. No, I've never shared or sold any graphics elements before, as they're tailor made to fit just my house and would require a lot of work to fit anywhere else. Is there anything specific you're looking for? :)
Hi Nissan. Thanks for watching. I really appreciate it. This is actually a bit more than 3000 lumens. I moved on from the BenQ 819ST after 2019 and I'm now running Optoma EH460ST with 4200 lumens. I'm actually stacking three of them and lining them up in MadMapper so they all project on top of each other. :)
Great Job as always! BTW You may want to copywrite that song, you may have a seasonal hit! (You can become the male Mariah Carey of the Halloween season haha :) ). Amazing skills as always! Great job!
Hi Brad Bustamente. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I hardly have time to do my own projection, so I'll politely have to decline, but there are several guys out there that offer their services. :)
Hi badmind gaming. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it. I'm happy you liked it. It's crazy that our little show for the neighborhood kids makes it all the way to India. :)
Hi Run. Thanks for swinging by and watching. I appreciate it and the kind words. This is not a full time job, and to be honest, I don't think there's much potential in it. You can only make so many projections, as each projection video would have to be made the house shape on the order, which takes a lot of time. So no mass production. This would be a small side business at best. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse oh ! I'm sorry. it was meant to be thoughtful. I do notice that oft a emoi will be one thing in the device used and translate to something entirely else in other devices. it's quite frustrating actually

Hi Karen Susee. Thank you for watching this one too. Unfortunately I'm not selling my projections as they only fit my house.

Hi Dragon359. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it. I'm happy you enjoyed it. It was a nerve wrecking time right before pushing "play" for the first run. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse Admittedly, the one you made in 2019 is my favorite of yours even though it didn't go well with the younger audience, but I know why you took a different direction for future ones. I'll be looking forward to next years projection!
@@Dragon359 Thank you, I also think the 2019 was the best one so far, but the backlash to the stabbing scene definitely shaped my options for the future. LOL.
I LOVE YOUR WORK! I wish we had you in my neighborhood. Miami has lost its zest for spooky season. Any chance you’ll be making any “how to..” videos any time soon? I’m very curious about the process and wondering if I could make something of my own. You’re the best I’ve seen on here so it would be an honor to learn from you.
Hi Charlie Elias Alexander. Thanks for watching and your super kind words. I have always planned to do a how-to video, but since I barely have time to make the actual Halloween projections, I've never gotten around to actually doing it. However, there are several others that have created tutorials on projection mapping, so there's plenty of info out there. A good place to start is joining the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping". If you do get started with those, I'm always available to answer questions should you evolve into more of the 3D look I'm doing. :)
Will you do this stuff for christmas? beacause you said I recently realized, I don't have to "just" do Halloween projects
I haven't done Christmas yet. Primarily because it's not a one-night kinda thing like Halloween, where I can set the projector up in the street and monitor it throughout the evening. I don't have time to do that multiple evening throughout December.
@@ProjectThisHouse ok understand...
What sofware do you use and can give give me a tutorial please?
I use After Effects, Photoshop and Cinema4D, but have not done any tutorials. I would suggest you visit LumaBox or Phillips Projections here on RUclips for their very informative introduction-series to Projection Mapping. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse I will rather do blender free animation sofware
Hi I will like to do this can I get more information ☺ 🙂 plz thanks you what to buy where to buy and what to do on the projection on the wall .if the house is dark paint what you recommend thanks .
Hi brayden Z. Thank you for watching. I suggest you join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping", where you can find answers to all your questions. About the dark walls, that is a problem, and can usually only be solved by either: getting a very powerful projector ($$$$) or by re-painting your house. :)
I have been trying to do this for a couple years now, I am now all in for this Halloween. I have been watching your videos for years, thank you for uploading.
just need to know your projector model and what sound devices do you use.
Hi JZ. Thank you for watching my projections and your kind words. I’m happy you like them. For this projection, I’m using Optoma’s EH460ST and for the sound I’m using a Behringer EPS500 PA System
@@ProjectThisHouse thank you very much for the info
@@jz9631 No problem. I keep my eye out for what you come up with. :)
You guys always do amazing work 😁
Hi raphaela ratzlaff. Thank you so much for keep coming back and watching our shows. I'm really happy you like them. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse anytime. Keep making awesome stuff 😁
Bruh you smashed it again.
Thank you, Gamez WithJamez. I'm happy you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching. :)
You should do it for Christmas too. These show are very cool in person though
Hi @Ronangroves02. Thanks for watching. I wish I had the time to do Christmas too,..and you're right: This is so much more impressive in person because of the scale of it. :)
I love the music! Amazing work. I agree you should copyright the song. I found myself humming it today LOL. Your work is always inspiring. Can't wait to see the next one!
Thank you, Dustin. I really appreciate you swinging by and watching. I just love how the projection community has totally exploded and awesome stuff is popping up everywhere - and yours sit right up there with the best. It certainly keeps me on my toes. :)
Thanks for the kind words! I have been watching your stuff for years. It inspired me to get started. I see so many folks getting into the hobby because of you and a few others that have been doing this for a while.
Hopefully, I can speed up my development time. That is the one minus. These projects just take so much time...
@@SeasonedProjections Well, it will get faster every year. The period with trial and error is usually where most of the time is spent, and as experience builds, you will cut down on this. E.g. once I had made the song for this year's projection, the rest took only two weeks. The first couple of years, I was spending months figuring out what worked and what didn't. LOL. :)
How have I not seen this until now!! Glad you dropped on my video as I may have missed it otherwise!
Beautiful design and great story telling! Love the 3D work - cinema 4D? I’ve been considering putting myself through a boot camp of unreal engine in January but then I read so much about cinema 4D, but I think unreal may offer me more flexibility on the transitions and effects which exists in my mind 🤯
I’m trying to research the pros and cons before I go full scale time investment on one of them.
Hi Simon. Thank you for watching. RUclips is a jungle and it's easy to miss videos. I do it all the time, and then find unseen Halloween creations 7 month later in the summer time. LOL. Yes, I'm using Cinema4D. I took the time to model my house a few years back, so now I just have to add features (e.g. balconies, windows, doors) each year, that changes the look from previous themes. Super easy and you know the shadows will be realistic because...well, they're real! Before diving into Cinema4D, I'd give Blender a good look. If I was starting from scratch, I'd chose the free path instead of expensive software, but I've already put too many years into Cinema4D to jump ship now. :)
Where do you get your animations? Hope this doesn’t sound like a dumb question.
Hi @nathanhepp5017. Thanks for watching. No, it isn't a dumb question at all. I make most of my animations myself in a 3D program called Cinema4D, but there are some creators out there that make animations and sell them: AtmosFX.com and HallowFX.com to name a couple :)
crazy good see you next year 2022 @ProjectThisHouse
Hi Tomato. Geeez...can I get a day off before having to think of next year!?! LOL!! Thank you for watching. I really appreciate it. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse 😂 keep up the work
You never fail to impress
Hi Sleeping Pegasus. That's too kind. Thanks for watching, I really appreciate it. I'm happy you enjoyed it. :)
Incredible job.
Hi Joey Levy. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it. I'm happy you enjoyed it. :)
I think I have asked you this before, but do you create all your characters in a 3D modeling program? And if so, which program do you use to model and animate them?
Hi Nate V. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I actually buy the models on various 3D sites and then alter them a little bit. They cost anywhere from $0 to $30. I then animate them in Cinema4D and render them out for assembly in AfterEffects. :)
i wish people did these in my area! there always so fun to watch.
Hi dinkieminkie roblox. Thanks for stopping by and watching. There are several good tutorials out there on the web, so maybe you could be the one doing it in your neighborhood? :)
how do you start this process to get my house mapped to get your program installed please
Hi gary caruloff. Thanks for stopping by and watching. Projection mapping is when you project a video onto an object - in this case a house - having made the video specifically to fit that object, so it matches the features or shape. That's why my projection won't match any other house, and therefore can't be transferred. If you google "projection mapping tutorial", you'll find several real good explanations on how to get started making your own. :)
How many projectors do you use out of curiosity?
Hi Ryan Brown. Thanks for stopping by and watching. This is in principle done with a single projector, but to get a little more light intensity, I actually stack three identical projectors and align them so they each show the same image on top of each other. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse good to know, thanks for the response!
@@ryanbrown1835 anytime. :)
Do you customize and sell your videos? I would live something like this for my house
@@doradelgado3411 Thank you so much for watching. Unfortunately I don't do this for others. Primarily because I don't have the time, but also because the 3D modelling in this, simply does not just transfer to another housemodel, so it would take waaay too much work to redo it, and I would have to charge waaay to much. :)
Is it possible to purchase your projections to display on my own home ? I have the projector setup but need someone to make me cool content like this
Hi Marcelles Fazel. Unfortunately, I don't sell my shows. If you're looking for someone to make a projection show for you or your school, you can join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping". There are several members there that make and sell shows. Good luck. :)
Where can I buy it ?
Hi Ruben's Window Tint LLC. Thanks for watching. I really appreciate it. Unfortunately this is not for sale, as it'll only fit my exact house model. To re-format it to another house shape would require me to start from scratch, and I would have to charge too much for it. :)
Excited to see your How To videos!
Hi ladynks2000. Thanks for stopping by. I must admit that since 8 years has passed without me finding the time to make even a single How-To video, the prospects do not look good. LOL. However, luckily there are people out there with more energy and drive than me, that have made several really informative videos on the matter. Just google "Projection Mapping Tutorial", and a bunch should show up. :)
Amazing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hi LiverpoolWithLove xX. Thank you so much for stopping by and watching. I really appreciate it and I'm happy you liked it. BTW Great choice of soccer team. #YNWA :)
👏🏼 honestly so cool I’d love to have the skills to do this! The uk doesn’t go as hard as the US for Halloween 🎃 id love to see this in person
@@HanaMindYourOwn I know there are a handful of people doing this in the UK. There's a Facebook group called "Holiday Projection Mapping" you can join, where you can find them. There's also plenty tutorials and help for people wanting to get into Projection Mapping. :)
Freakin cool ... great show!
Ahoy The Pirates of North Court. Thank you so much for sailing by and watching - even if you guys can only watch with the one eye not wearing an eye patch. I'm happy you enjoyed it. :)

I LOVE IT NOW
actully i change my mind i like it
Hi Sotyguyholiday. I'm happy the song grew on you and you now like it. :)
I LOVE IT NOW
Love your shows you ever make any for
Others ?
Hi Clown town. Thanks for stopping by and watching. No, unfortunately I don't sell the projections. First of all, because all of them includes elements I don't have the rights to re-sell (e.g. from AtmosFX).
Secondly, because my projections ONLY fit my house model. Re-fitting it to someone else's house would be very time consuming and will in most cases require a completely new layout.
So it would not be worth my time to offer it as a service, even if I would charge money for it. It would be too expensive for you. 😜
Fantastic job!
Hi didjbusker. Thank you so much for watching. I'm happy you liked it. :)

Hi Restin Walken. Thanks for watching, I really appreciate it. I'm happy you enjoyed it. :)

what is the name of the projector

Wow AMAZING
Hi Diamond Crystal. Thanks for watching, I really appreciate it. I'm happy you liked it. :)

Hi Ki-Pat Tao. Me too! I better get started then. Do you have any ideas? :)
@@ProjectThisHouse Maybe so, But I love it how you make great light show on a house for Halloween. You can make a Light Show from Hell with Fire, Devils, Demons, Incubus and Succubus🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@Ki-Pat Tao. All very good ideas, but probably a little too much for all the little kids in the neighborhood watching. :)
I need to contact the channel owner
Hi Ahmed Birairy. Thanks for stopping by. You can send an email to projetthishouse@gmail.com. :)
This was spectacular, planning on doing my second projection mapping this year 2022. Do you share any of your graphics?
Hi JR Mr, thanks for swinging by and watching. I'm happy you liked it. No, I've never shared or sold any graphics elements before, as they're tailor made to fit just my house and would require a lot of work to fit anywhere else. Is there anything specific you're looking for? :)
Great video it was amazing
Hi Misty Harlow. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching. :)
I can't believe this is 3000 lumen only, wow.
Hi Nissan. Thanks for watching. I really appreciate it. This is actually a bit more than 3000 lumens. I moved on from the BenQ 819ST after 2019 and I'm now running Optoma EH460ST with 4200 lumens. I'm actually stacking three of them and lining them up in MadMapper so they all project on top of each other. :)
WHO VOICE THEM?
The characters in theis video is all voiced by myself. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse wow amazing nice voice
This year can you do a poppy playtime themed projection
Hi Eduardo The Race Car. I think I have to google that one, since I've never heard of Poppy Playtime. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse Poppy playtime is this Indy horror game going worldwide ever since October of last year
@@GreenMationsOfficial Cool. I'll check it out. :)

Hi Billy Swarthout. Thanks for swinging by and watching I appreciate it. :)
Great Job as always! BTW You may want to copywrite that song, you may have a seasonal hit! (You can become the male Mariah Carey of the Halloween season haha :) ).
Amazing skills as always! Great job!
LOL - my life is complete! I've always wanted to be the male Mariah Carey of the Halloween season. Good one, Rich. :)
it's my favorite holiday too
That awesome man, love it, can you do one for my house, I am willing to pay you
Hi Brad Bustamente. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I hardly have time to do my own projection, so I'll politely have to decline, but there are several guys out there that offer their services. :)
I just realized I forgot to check for the annual upload. My bad 😞 🎃👻🏚
LOL - no problem Pete. RUclips is a jungle. I’m happy you found it. :)

Love from India
Hi badmind gaming. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it. I'm happy you liked it. It's crazy that our little show for the neighborhood kids makes it all the way to India. :)
I'm sure if this isn't their job alreasy... it very well could be a job they would get paid handsomely doing if they wanted it to be.
Hi Run. Thanks for swinging by and watching. I appreciate it and the kind words. This is not a full time job, and to be honest, I don't think there's much potential in it. You can only make so many projections, as each projection video would have to be made the house shape on the order, which takes a lot of time. So no mass production. This would be a small side business at best. :)
not bad 👍🙁
Hi hobby gamer. Thanks for watching. I'm happy you didn't think it was bad, but why the sad face. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse oh ! I'm sorry. it was meant to be thoughtful.
I do notice that oft a emoi will be one thing in the device used and translate to something entirely else in other devices. it's quite frustrating actually
Ha ha, no worries. I just like to reply to all comments. 😂
@@ProjectThisHouse that's what I like to see
Is this supposed to be a parody of Willy Wonka?
Hi @brendenesguerra8488. Thanks for stopping by and watching. No, it wasn't meant to be a parody, but now you mention it, I can see why you would say so. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse and by the way,for halloween this year,could you do a house projection based on Goosebumps,as in R.L. Stine's Goosebumps, it's a very popular children's horror series, especially with the new Goosebumps series on Disney plus.

Where can I buy?
Hi Karen Susee. Thank you for watching this one too. Unfortunately I'm not selling my projections as they only fit my house. To make them for another house model would require me to start over from scratch, so it would take too much time to make it worth it...or I would have to charge you too much for it. LOL. :)
