- We are back for a second year and added many new lights and features to our show this year. The camera was a bit overwhelmed with the brightness of the lights so some things are washed out but hopefully this is still enjoyable to watch. Thanks and Merry Christmas!
I Just watched the whole video twice and still in a state of surprise with hard work done to set it up.
Great Light Show.
Wish we were a team and could make this go around the world.
Love from India 🤗🤗🙏🙏😍😍

Merry Christmas!
Job well done 👍 enjoyed it very much.
you did an excellent job with the lights Merry Christmas from Australia
Merry Christmas and thank you!
Merry Christmas happy new year and your welcome :-)
Loved This!!! Awesome job! Thank you!
whoever did that that decorating is not scared of heights that high roof is dizzy heights!!!
Neil scarp - there may or may not have been a lift involved ;) I am terrified of heights and almost fell off the roof last year!
great job. i may have to bring the family over to watch in person. i just finished my display last night in Bloomington and this type of set up would be my next jump.
Nice! You are more than welcome to visit! We love to see cars outside enjoying the show! While you are in Chaska make sure to check out snomutt lights and trista lights. Both are friends of mine and they run 100% pixel shows. Mine is a mix of pixel and ac. Do you have a show page? I'd live to see your display too!
Lights on Pascolo no show uploaded yet....just a hack job post. but now that there a few in the area i def will make it over there as the wife and our newborn just gave me the a-ok 😊.most of the ones i see on RUclips are warm climates....they dont get to enjoy the fun of putting up lights at 40 degrees or under. i have been watching the pixel styles...obviously with the johnson family making them famous. i like the versatility they provide. your pixel board reminds me of the disco pixel santa i saw once on RUclips. your pixel boards are amazing.
Rory Theis cool! If you want to make a full night of it (not sure that is possible with a newborn ;)) in the SW metro you can all prairie lights, pederson family lights, and snook family lights to the list! All of the shows I mentioned have pages and most have some video if you want to google them prior! or just go to mnholidaylights.com for a master list!
congrats on making the star tribune today with the Prince Tribute.
Yeah, last week was crazy. I lost track of all of the coverage about mid-day Tuesday as it went full on viral. Never had that happen before, or in my wildest dreams ever imagined it would! But it's given us a platform to tell our story and raise money for a great charity. We are already at 5x our initial goal we set at the beginning of the year!
Nice job! Merry Christmas.
Brooke Hedrick Merry Christmas to you as well!
simply amazing!!
You used the Snoop Dogg version from Pitch Perfect. CLASSIC! Now I HAVE TO come see it!
Missy Rumble - Big fans of Pitch Perfect, Snoop, and Anna Kendrick over here. We had to do it!
awesome show Merry Christmas !!!
Themarkovian Merry Christmas! Thanks for watching!
Magnifique bravo vue de France

WOW!!!
awesome the best must of took time
It's a 12 month sport. LOL. Already starting the plans for next year!
nice job!
Lexus Fsport Thanks!
Excellent
This was A Great Show! Ive been a big Griswold kinda Guy during Christmas and have been wanting to dive into this CompAnimated LightShow. I have been collecting many of the pixels, etc, but I've read so much on this, my mind is sludge, lol I just don't understand how you guys actually inject the pwr for diff items and then connect o controllers all while not degrading the pwr through length, that has got me completely lost, you think you can give any info/Advice on how to properly do this it would be much appreciated. You've done a great job for being Only on 2nd yr of doing this. My hats off to you. Btw, I hope y'all had a Blessed Christmas!
Thank you for the kind words! I hear ya on your mind being sludge - this was our first year with pixels and it took many many hours of videos and forum reading to get everything figured out. But it was very rewarding when I got my first pixel prop working properly - and then everything clicked for me and became easier from there! In terms of power injection, I decided to keep things simple. I have a few other friends in the area who do this as well and they do the same. Basically, we all use 16 output controllers. We use one universe per output to keep things simple. We also use no power injection. We can run 100ish pixels off of each output (I've had as high as 130 with no issues) OR one 16' 10/30 pixel strip. And then we also run each output at 40-60% power (50% average across all outputs). This allows you to only use one 350W PSU per 16 output board, and you don't even notice the difference in brightness or quality. This was a life saver as you can get a board and PSU into one CG1500 box with no issue. So I'd recommend keeping things simple to start like we did as you get started! And then go from there! Good luck - and I hope you and your family had a very Merry Christmas!
Well done thanks :)
Ending is so cool. TIME picked up your videos
Thanks for watching. The coverage has been crazy! We are humbled and honored to be recognized in this way.
Tell us more about your build. What controllers are you using? How many controllers, channels, power supplies and light strings do you have? xlights or vixen? Are you on the forums?
Thanks for asking Mike! Here are some deets. 2nd year doing animated lights, first year using xLights and integrating pixels. I loovvee xLights compared to LOR that I used last year. AlphaPix 16s run the pixels (likely adding Falcon f16v3s next year), and LOR boxes run the AC. 96 channels of AC (those singing trees and Santa eat up 35 alone, and the megatree is 24). About 2800 pixels on 8400 channels. So just shy of 8500 channels total and over 10,000 total lights. FPP is the show player on a Pi 2. I use some Boscoyo props and use other parts from Holiday Coro. The first two songs utilize pixel tree .sup files from holidaysequences.com, and Crockett Fantasy of Lights and Edward C did some lyric tracks for the trees for me as I was running out of time to sequence! Managed to get the full show pulled together for launch on 11/25 as planned! I do read the forums sometimes, but don't really participate. A local group of us have our own forum where we do more discussion as some of us are newer to the hobby and are figuring things out together as we go. I am active on the facebook pages though. For me, it is just nice to have those integrated it my normal social feed! Thanks for asking! Shoot me a link to your show page! I'd love to take a look at it!
Oh, And someone shared that light saber sequence in the beginning as well that I built a star wars theme around. I don't remember who to credit though!!!!
Hail Yeah......=)
Thank you! This was fun & really cheered me up. You had tributes to several bands throughout, including Muse, if I'm not mistaken. Which group did the techno Carol Of The Bells at the end?
Merry Christmas :)
Hi Nancy. The Carol of the Bells was Saunika. I didn't have Muse (but I love Muse!). The other songs were Light of Christmas by Owl City, Winter Wonderland / Here Comes Santa by Snoop and Anna Kendrick from Pitch Perfect, Rudolf was a band called Amasic, Angels we have heard on high is Reliant K, and Little Drummer Boy is Toby Mac.
And Merry Christmas!
you've inspired me to do this in the 2017 season I have calculated the cost of light controllers and rgb lights to be around 1,500 plus all the lawn decorations and pixel boards is thus around what u got ??? if u use rgb lights how do u hook them up
Hi Dylan. Glad you have decided to jump into this hobby in 2017! It is very rewarding as many people appreciate these types of displays! All you really need to get started is lights (RGB or AC), light controllers, a computer, and some software. I recommend xLights for software which is free and very powerful.Lights get sequenced and programmed in the software, and the lights get physically hooked up to a controller. A show player (computer, raspberry pi, etc..) runs the controllers and the show. You will need to buy or build props to put lights into and will need a considerable amount of odds and ends like wiring, mounting hardware, and many other parts and pieces. Your estimate would get you a decent starter setup, but let's just say a large and robust display would run you multiples of what you are thinking. Start small, learn how things work and what you like, and then continue to grow from there!
Also, start designing and planning early. I started this display about this time last year! You can model everything out in xLights now without spending a dime. It takes a lot of time to learn all of the ins and outs of this hobby. There are various groups on facebook you can join and the holiday light community is very generous with advice, guidance, and even troubleshooting. A few groups to join would be "Official xLights Support Group", "xLights Support Group", "Light O Rama Users", "FPP Falcon Player", "Advanced RGB Pixels and Controllers". Also, there are tons of tutorials on youtube that you can search on xLights and various light controllers such as the AlphaPix 16 or Falcon F16v2. Also, visit sites like holidaycoro.com. This site has a ton of videos and educational materials that I found to be very helpful. Also check out boscoyostudio.com for props, crockettfantasyoflights, and falconchristmas.com. Once you get your bearings and figure out the basics, let the light designer in you loose!
Thanks for watching and good luck. Feel free to reach out if you would like any more advice. Merry Christmas!
Lights on Pascolo thx u and Merry Christmas to u too
damn fuckicking awesome
Great Show, Just wondering is that a P10 Matrix? if it is, I'd love to know how many panels are in it and how they're arranged (LxW) because it look amazing
Hey there, it is not a P10. It is just a 840 bullet pixel matrix with 2" spacing. The video was shot from about 60 feet away. It looks good from 35+ feet but any closer and you can't really make out the images / video like you could on a P10.
where do you find your artists, they all sound so good when sped up
I did a lot of listening to youtube playlists and other sources to find music that spoke to me a bit. I love modern interpretations of Christmas songs so we decided to go that route with this year's show!
Lights on Pascolo, could you please share the GIFs of the sleigh ride, grandma, etc., used for The Light of CHRISTmas or tell me where they came from? The are the same ones used on other light shows in other RUclips videos even in Oklahoma displays and I’d love to do them in my little show too? Thank you! Amazing job on the programming. That’s my job on our free software we are using and I am an amateur to say the least!
awesome show!!!!! id appreciate it if you'd please use acoustic foam when recording audio yourself.
Yes, good call. I just recorded audio on a computer's mic. Need to redo that yet! Thanks for the advice!
This is awesome, man! What is the first song, if I could ask?
First song is Light of Christmas by Owl City. Can't help but dance and straight out jam to that one! First time I heard it I saw the lights dancing in my head already!
i loved the lights of Christmas by owl city did you program the animations or did you get them from somewhere would love to add some to my display.
are those 20x20 singing trees?
Big corporation lights masquerade
Love all these christmas light videos! Just one question: Is there a reason why everyone used a Star Wars theme this year?
Lori Hackney - well......mostly because we are all Geeks. Kidding! Probably has to do with all the new movies, and our kids who love them!
Mine do too! Was just wondering if I missed a movie somewhere lol
Merry Christmas for everyone from Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun to the world .
Which national are you watching this video ?
nice ^^
OWL CITY!!!!!!!!! :D
AND SNOOP DOGG!!! AWESOME PLAYLIST

I would like to give this a shot with a smaller project first. I am a tech nerd but not a lighting designer. Did you have any experience going into this? In other words, is there any hope for me to take something like this on and be kind of successful with it? ha
Hi Mic. Check out the response I typed to Dylan Zeravica in this comment thread for some pointers as you get started. This is our second year doing this. I am also a tech nerd but had no lighting experience prior. But the communities and forums you can join can teach you everything you need to know!

what system are you using for this
It it is all run by xLights and a Raspberry Pi running FPP software!
