Jesus ****... Wha...?
Can you begin to even imagine the power output required for all those flashes?
-
Genius!
-
thats pretty pimped out
-
Have they got around to 'Pimp my house' on MTV yet?
-
haha nope, but that should be next
unless you qualify MTV cribs as that
-
Hmmm. Somebody's a stage lighting tech...
-
I hate overlit houses at Christmas to be honest, it's gaudy, pointless, attention whoring.
-
Or is trying to be one.
If only I had the 49 straight hours it would take to get that all put together. And then watch it more than once without getting an epileptic seisure.
-
I dislike houses with too many Christmas lights too, but that's because most of them are just 'how many shiny things can I stick on my house' competition entries.
That must've taken a lot of effort to set up, which moves it out of the 'pathetic' category and into the realms of art.
Very impressive (although I wouldn't like to be a neighbour).
-
In order for the by-passers to figure that out, the music would have to be playing around the clock. Very loud... :D
-
Some people have WAY too much time on their hands, even during the holidays :wtf:
-
doesnt it kinda look like they took the claymation approach to that, like stop it then change the lights then start again
-
It does a little. Hard to tell 'cos it's such a poor quality... Either way, it took a lot of effort...
BTW. I have heard that music before. Does anybody know whose track that is?
-
That's been bugging me as well. It sounds like something that somebody like Steve Vai or Yngwie Malmsteen would come out with, but it's piano/keyboard instead of guitar. The other thing that springs to mind is Beethoven's synth-rock-out thing from Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, when all the historical figures are going wild in the shopping centre. So I'm guessing some kind of 80s virtuoso type thing.
-
Well you can burn their house down and the investigators would simply assume its an electrical fire.
Pyro: sounds like helloween or rhapsody or some other power-metal type thing.
-
That's.... sickening.

That's what I thought too; the animations aren't really smooth. Very cool stuff nonetheless.

Almost surely stop motion -
In the beginning you can see 2 or 3 people jerking around the front door in a very unrealistic manner.
-
Theres nothing worse than having people unrealistically jerk around your front door at Christmas....
Sorry.
-
Man, that is one of the craziest things I've ever seen.

/me makes a note to realistically jerk about Flipside's door during the upcoming holiday*
-
Not too impressive tbh... I've seen more complicated lighting done with a theatre-quality board... Fun to watch though :p

Useless power consumption...talk about NOT nature friendly.
Having a decorated tree with lights is OK, but what some people (and towns) are doing is way too much.
-
do you have any idea how a transformer works? Or a three-phase cable? Woudl you realize taht that house runs off nothing more than what normally comes from a power plant, just modified to have a higher amperage? Didnt think so.
-
Xmas lights are excessively power hungry, however, being across the road from one going 'blinky blinky blinky' at 3am certainly makes it a fire risk :/

Very appropriate. Man, the more times I watch that, the more crazy it seems. People, with too much, time on their hands...

They decorated an old house with lights...
What do we do here?
Decorate a years old game engine with lights and shineys and other eye candy... :D
