Oh man, what a great job explaining the different types. That mapping thing looks stunning!

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Thanks, Beebs.

[@whiskycoders7097]

This is just what I was searching for! Thanks for the video!

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Glad I could help!

Pixles and only pixels makes my job easy I was an incandescent and led lighter for a long time trying different things with lights to get multiple colors blinking on off.🤦🏾‍♂️ Then I was introduced to pixels 🤯 I can do everything I want and more in one string vs 4-5 strings all wrapped together. Love this hobby and all of the improvements over the years.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

I get ya, Steve. The more we add, the more we need the convenient option. Less work = more dazzle! I'd do pixels or mapping if I were starting out.

[@wonderlandoftemucolaneholi6493]

@@ChristmasOnCrestline Yes, I agree and I would do mapping but live steep hill and that’s an issue

[@ChadsChristmasLights]

great info and video Charlie!

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Thanks for saying so, Chad. This was a fun one to work on!

I am working on a Static/traditional/victorian display. It is going to use a walking trail through a 6-acre woods around my house. It's a labor of love. I spend a little more each year to expand it. Maybe before I die it will be done. LOL. Who am I kidding we make them bigger every year. God Bless love the channel.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Very cool, Steve! Hey, make certain you take a video of that and send it in to me ([e-mail]) for this year's Fan Appreciation Awards. Last year, we had six of our contestants move on to ABC's The Great Christmas Light Fight and one of them was a walk-through display that was all done my a 16 year-old. Send in the video and you just never know who you'll inspire and where it will lead. Merry Christmas in July!

[@kturob]

Good job Charlie

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Thank ya much, Rob!

[@lightingUpOrchard]

Pixels.. all pixels and some static in the back yard! To me static and pixels are the sweet spot! Can’t. Get. Enough. I can look at static and pixels displays daily and never get tired of it haha

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

True. I enjoy static a ton. I mean, Monte's and Scott's homes are just dynamite each year in my FAA contest!

[@jacoblaughlin1199]

I have static, but am starting from scratch. Some my fault, some Florida's some the fire. lol

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Sounds like you've got the ultimate trifecta of Christmas challenges! Florida, fire, and a sprinkle of 'oops'-the perfect recipe to start a new display!

[@ffmmackie287]

I've been doing computerized. I make all my props. I design all my motion beat by beat. I would love to add some pixels but then I would need a lot of help programming.

[@wonderlandoftemucolaneholi6493]

@@ffmmackie287 With you already being a programmer it’s literally almost the same but easier.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Great call, Mackie. I tell ya, if you want to learn pixels and learn them on your own pace you should check this course out and Learn How To Make Your Very Own Computerized Pixel Light Show HERE: www.learnchristmaslighting.com/a/2147807865/sHmR4RHn

hi charlie! We continue christmas in july xd

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Merry Christmas in July, Gabo!

[@Gabo_Koopa]

@@ChristmasOnCrestline yay!

[@tonyjsmt]

I’m a mix of static lights, computerized display and pixel show. I’m looking to add projections into this. Just call me Mr. Eclectic. Hey…maybe I could build a KZbin channel around that.😅

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Heck yes you can, Tony! That would indeed fill a hole in our Niche. No one else is doing a year round channel about integrating static, computerized, and projection mapping...you'd own that corner of the market! That's be awesome to see you do it!

[@kturob]

Even if they are part of Christmas going forward drums at least they're not going to be on this year's great Christmas light show

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Ahhh good point. She did say that on the interview, didn't she?!

[@gaetanoschristmaschannel]

I will be king of the static display. Already king of the static couch sitting, But Charlie, I'm way over 5K probably over closer to 10K. Of course I'm a very disturbed individual.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

lol well played, Gaetano! The price of our displays definitely grows as we add to them each year!

[@kturob]

If I had that much money to spend I'd spend it on a lot better things 300,000 forget that and not just because I don't like them

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

I wonder what they charge for the shows. They had to have made that back in spades already.

[@mykiwichristmas]

5 types? what about Interactive displays and something you dont do, Poertable displays? DRONES DONT COUNT! Come on. Really $10k for 1 drone? come on . Charlie! for 10 k i can build a pop up display tha we take to the commuity. Im pretty sure you dont understand.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Yep, 10K per drone is what they told me when I interviewed them back in February. Interactives could be a 6tth but you don't see a ton of them in residential displays. If you had it at your home, I would consider it as residential but since you mostly to destination displays, I don't think that fits into this residential category.

[@mykiwichristmas]

@@ChristmasOnCrestline by interactive I mean things like sleighs and photo props selfies. Or letting people give their teddy bears a ride on a prop. Touchable inflatables.
