Sorry for the length, but I couldn't fit it into a shorter video. Here I show you some tips and tricks on how to light your haunt for Halloween. I also show you different lighting techniques and sources that work great at a low cost for any home haunter. Хобби
Love these old haunt diy (how to) videos.
My dad was a Special Effects man and my cousin was in lighting. Halloween at my house was a neighborhood event. We would put up partitions up so no one would know until Halloween.
You showed a lot of cool ideas 💡 even the masks 🎭 you painted with lighting they look much more scary and pop out. What an easy thing with a big effect.
Love the work you do man, can't wait to start seeing your build videos for this year since it's October now :)
Great video Cory! Thanks for showing us all the different lights you use. Very helpful!
Thanks for the video. Our house looks way better after using the milk crate trick.
Thank you so much for this! We are doing a haunted house & now I know it will look so much better with your tricks!!!
Those color changing bulbs can be found on amazon for about $3.50. I stocked up on a bunch as well as 10 bigger LED flood lights with a color changing remote. They all work great.
Thanks for the tips. Currently it's May
6th and I can't stop thinking about setting up my haunted garage for Halloween. We gotta keep the Halloween spirit alive my friends!
Great idea on the cover for the cfl in the flood light holder! I had those same holders and stopped using them because I couldnt keep the water out of them when using cfls! I might have to dig them back out and try that!
Thanks for taking the time to show how you do your lighting, this is going to be very helpful. Everything is looking great!
Thanks for the tips, I'm going to try the milk crate lighting tip, also you might know this already but strobe lights look great in tree's, my Dad did that one year in a weeping willow tree and no kids would walk up the sidewalk to ring the doorbell. It was that scary. Thanks again!
Thanks for the ideas. I'm taking away milk crate covering ground spotlight. I've never worked in theater so I hadn't heard of the "break up" concept. Plus... it protects the light from being stepped on by accident.
I agree with everyone, awesome presentation...here it comes...except in regards to the blacklight. They're not useless, they are application specific. For example...i use the red light and fog machine effect when I answer the front door. I am 6'4", and wear a hooded cloak that drapes to the floor. I also have my face made up a a skull, and with a blacklight aiming into my house from outside, it makes my face glow in the red fog. A very dramatic effect! Being a blacklight, it does not ruin the red fog effect. Otherwise a great video, keep 'em coming, I am subscribing.
Wow bro thats some serious lighting tips thanks for sharing !!!
bro, this video was super helpful. thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing. Great info.
Nice variety! If I use any this year I’ll give you a shoutout ^v^ I was trying to think of a breakup pattern like a cuciloris. I have milk crates from my LP collection. It could be cool if the crate could move or rotate on a motor. Just have to hid it behind a tombstone. I like the warmth and color quality of old energy-hogging bulbs compared to LED’s. But LED’s are here to stay. I like the eBay 16 Color Changing with Wireless Remote you show. I normally don’t like mini misters that change colors for example. But that makes the display active without animation.
Inspired me to put together a playlist of my videos “Lighting Effects Used in Yard Haunts & Cedar Point Amusement Park’s HalloWeekends." I don’t have 2014’s up yet. I found Orange CFL bulbs at Lowe’s during Halloween! I also used 10“ clamp light reflectors. I had to put them on the ground. But it worked. I used a canon strobe against the garage. Blacklit sheet ghost. A Stanley LED fashlight that has a tripod base to spotlight a prop. Grim Reaper had fading phantom glasses behind his mask. Kmart blinking eyes in bushes. Flashlight gobos from Target. A bat silhoutte cut out of a paper plate. Luminaries next to tombstones. Orange pumpkin string lights on a graveyard fence. Blacklit Entry archway with white sheet cloth strips. UV paint. I backlit a tombstone with a flicker unit shooting fog into the back of it.
I tried a bunch of stuff. The milkcrate and Magic LED’s could be a nice addition.
This is very good hunting lighting from Staten Island New York love it thanks
Thanks man. I really appreciate it!
The remote controlled LED is an awesome idea. I wish I knew about this sooner! :)
Omg!!!This video was sooo helpful!!Thank you so much!!💜💜💙💙👻🎃
This helped me a lot! Thank you
Red and yellow sounds good .
Dude that was awesome! i wish i would have thought of the milk crate idea. I have soda pop crates with the same grate style and that would have done great for my haunt this year. i was thinking about the LED multifunction lights but passed on them due to mixed reviews. Just want to know if the remote will interfere if there are several in the same vicinity? again awesome lighting tutorial.
Wow this is a very helpful video my friend! Thanks for taking the time to make this video! :)
very kool lighting tips man...
omg you are awesome very good effects for halloween and cheap
Great Post. I want to know what kind of lighting to use on the inside of the home for my party.
you could say this video was very en-LIGHT-ening.
HA HA HA no
my puns are LIT, and you shouldn't take them so LIGHT-ly. basic-LIGHT-ly you should be taking notes from my amazing puns.
Ba-dum tisss
This is very good hunting love it from Staten Island NY

like the milk crate trick, I used to make box frames an cover with camo net and covered the top with a piece of wood.
In the cinematography world the crate is similar to a "diffuser" used by director's of photography, a lot cheaper than a diffuser that's for sure
Outside if its not a covered area, use the floor light brackets I showed. You can take them off the ground spike and screw them in to wall panels and such and use the plastic cover. For tombstones, individually id say find a small led spot like one shown, and use that. Should work good. I use about 4 blue party bulbs for my cemetery scene and no specials on the tombstones.
Hi, do you have an updated lighting video? Would love to see what's in your lighting arsenal old and new.
you have great ideas for Halloween Lighting and gave me many. if possible can you tell me where to order the cheapest lawn sockets for flood lights with stakes which can be converted into screwing onto walls
Also congrats on the 1000 subscribers
they sale black light party bulbs and they actually work really good, just gotta give them time to warm up after they get old.
what if you striped the gels to have sections per light. so like, each light has red white red, on em. would probably look less blown out.
At firs glance i thought you were reppin a st.louis hat LOL.. Sorry my hometown cardinals got me brainwashed. Great video man. Very informative!
blinding gels will give you a broader spectrum would it night.. i mean you could get a grayish tint that would tame the brightness of the white.. like a blue and a yellow gel i think that makes a dull spooky grayish color... try to get brown like a beer bottle that is a tuff one.. peace great job wish you were my neighbor..
On the party bulbs can I complete info pleas? thanks.
What would you recommend for lighting grey tombstones? Also I've thought a bought using the metal clamp shades but was worried about rain. What's our experience been using them outside?
yeah the green in the barrel looks best.
Where you get party bulb
Where did u get the tonic barrel prop?
Awsome lighting tips what about sounds
Hey great video, what is the brand of that blue party bulb you have and where can I get them or can you put up a link thanx!
J Mendez Hi. Just any blue party bulb from Home Depot of Lowes. No specific brand needed :)
Thanks for taking the time....
Do you know of any lights that cast a very dark but rich purple color? I’m very disappointed with most of the purple lighting I’ve tried because they are very light colored and washed out. I want something dark and rich that will cast an eerie dark purple glow. So you know of anything?
my main problem is at night no one can see my decorations
where do you get your gels?
Found it. Google american dj gel packs. They also have it on amazon.
Do u wrap the light bulb with the gels? If so can the be removed and reused.
You may have learned a lot about lighting growing up in theater and so on but you sure did not learn anything about holding a camera steady, did you!
