RGBW LED Tape & Fabric Church Stage Design Idea

In this episode, I am showing you how I take by stage design concept and turn it into a reality. It's a lot of work to plan a project of this size but it can be done and you can do it too. Make a plan, put it on paper and get to work. The gospel of Jesus is not contained in these four walls but it's an honor to make the place we assemble to worship our Lord and Savior a beautiful place.

You’re the only guy I can find on KZbin that has idea and tutorials on led light strips. I started using them in our kids space and I wanted to do dmx but couldn’t find anything about using them on stage. Thank you so much man for all the ideas and tutorials

[@BlackstaRPHTM]

woow amazing. we always pray for our church renovation completion . cause we believe God will provide.

[@ardomolce]

awesome video!!!! for people trying to replicate this make sure when you picking led lights from amazon you check how separated the led lights are, and when you pick the pine wood pick the ones that are super straight. God bless you all

[@Deraco1]

Looks awesome!! Simple tools and material used to make a great backdrop!

[@nathanwall37]

“You cannot do this by yourself.” My three years of no vacation beg to differ 😂 For real though, having a plan and a team makes a potentially agonizing process fun. Appreciate the great content!

Thank you and thanks for watching Ana

[@shadowboy23]

How funny is this .. I have just started to learn how to pull together LED lights using a chip called ESP32 and I was thinking it would be cool to do something at church with them. Randomly your video popped up and I was not thinking BIG enough lol. This is so cool and such a cool project to get the church involved with, if they are open to it :)

[@djpedromixhouston]

i am on to led strip panel biulding, thanks for makeing this video. god bless.

[@johntorgerskjelstad5619]

Fantastic videos. We are renovating our church here in Norway and want to add LED tape to the design. The back and side walls are large and clean, but white colored... Could you give us some ideas of how we could use LED tape ( and maybe fabric) on white walls? Thanks!

[@ebube4god]

Hello, I really love your design, I'm trying to implement something similar to our church. However, I live in the UK, can you recommend similar material I can find? How did you hook up the frame at the top? DId you also use one DMX 32ch Decoder for all the RGB? Thanks

[@andreyadalaka]

This is awesome! Just a suggestion to pre- sew all the pleats according to the dimensions of the frame and have it just stapled to save time. God bless you all! Love your work🙏🏽💯❤️

[@thomasheath3900]

Hey, I love the videos on the stage designs! Just one question, do you guys need permits to build these sets?

Great! thanks for the ideas sharing) I have a question. How much is this white net visible when the RGB-light is turned off?

[@aleafgo1]

Love your videos, thank you for all of the great ideas we are few years behind on working your designs, we are working the ping pong ball design to use in our teen room and doing the boxes with the Yarn in our large church for boxes for lettering.

[@Mrle1021]

Hi, Where do you download the Keynote for layout the stage?

[@pastormiguelrios3428]

Hello Chat, we really liked the design of the lights, we have all the frames with their LED lights connected to the decoders, but I am stuck in the part of how to connect one decoder with another (I have 4 in total) and how to assign channels to each strip of light, do you have any video? Our plan is to include all the lights to the LightKey, but in these two weeks, we will temporarily connect to an Elation DMX Operator mixer.

[@bradsnelling5122]

You appear to have 30 individual strips (2 per 15 panels) and your saying they can all be individually controlled? Are you using 4 of the 32 channel controllers or did you serial link some of the strips together? Thanks.

[@jakevanskike]

Could you describe how you (or where) you attached the power and encoder to the fixture? Top or Bottom? Floor or on the fixture. Thanks.

[@netoalas4113]

Hi how are you doing?I am loving your videos. Any chance you can give me tips for my project. I have a small room (the space is 6mtsx6mts) and I am trying to find the best configuration. I am planning on doing a total of eight BTF-LIGHTING addressable led strips (60 leds/m) (5mt each 12v) + Muzata diffusers. What would be the best way to power them? Maybe 2 60 Amp Power Supply (running 4 and 4, or running one at the beginning and one at the end)? How many Injections would you recommend? Would I get away with one ESP32 board or should I get more? Or is there any board you would recommend for longer projects? I've seen ENTECCs Octo as an option but would love to get your advice on it. Greetings in advance, love your content

[@nickdelacruz3429]

Do you have any videos showing how you design your stage using keynote?

[@paulalexis5768]

Are all the light lit up only by the led or are there bars hitting the fabric as well. Is it the LED strips fully lighting the panel?

[@patriciomiranda4722]

Awesome decoration, inspirational, One question, I am using led strips with a decoder and power source, but the source emits a "digital sound" when the lights are on and increases if the brightness of the lights increases, that even interferes with the audio system (I don't know how), did you have that problem or do you know how to solve it?

[@WorshipLeaderHangout]

I didn’t have that problem but you may need to have your sound and lights on different power circuits.

[@Nathan_Lundstrom]

Using this design as a reference - love it! How did you hang or mount these fabric and 1x2 frames to your stage? Hang it to pipe? or are they french cleated somewhere?

[@WorshipLeaderHangout]

They are hanging from the truss with plastic coated steel wire from a hardware store. I used zip ties initially to get them into place before finishing with steel wire.

[@brennenforster9312]

@@WorshipLeaderHangout love the video and design! Just wondering if you have any videos or pictures showing how you hang things like this using the wire you mentioned above? I’m a worship leader from Canada looking to do similar designs but just not quite sure how to hang them properly. Thanks for all you do!

[@renhal467]

What kind of fabric?

[@tyler6552]

So if each strip is separately addressed, does that mean you have 30 DMX decoders?? Each decoder has 8 outputs but isn't each decoder just one DMX channel? Or am I missing something.

[@WorshipLeaderHangout]

I use a 32 channel decoder allowing me to program 8 LED strips on each decoder.

[@voaji]

How do you connect the led strip decoder and light fixtures to the light controller

[@WorshipLeaderHangout]

Via DMX and a lighting usb interface

[@WorshipLeaderHangout]

I used to use Keynote because I didn’t know how to use other design software. Now I use LightKey

[@ayoanil]

did you find strip lights to be brighter than uplights?

[@WorshipLeaderHangout]

The are not unless you double up but they look really good going all the way up the edge.

[@ayoanil]

@@WorshipLeaderHangout thank you for this reply. With led strips being 10% the cost of an uplight, I could double up and allow for a better cheaper option.

[@AD2024JAM]

Thanks for sharing. It s good that you could use keynote to do the layout

[@WorshipLeaderHangout]

Thanks for watching. About 6 years ago I started using keynote in that way because I didn't have the means to pick up a proper design software. This works for now but I'm sure I'll make my way towards a more dedicated design app.

[@AD2024JAM]

@@WorshipLeaderHangoutI honestly didn’t know keynote had these capabilities. Which other design apps are you aiming for ?

[@russellgoodwin]

How do you get the pleats at the top to match up?

[@WorshipLeaderHangout]

I measured them as I stapled. Then when I went to the other side I pulled tight looking down the panel making sure each fold was straight and in line with the one on the other side. I also continued to measure each pleat. Only one gave me an issue with not wanting to match up properly so I used a steamer to loosen the fabric.

Hi Chad, could you please show how the stage design looks with all the stage lights on, like when the pastor is preaching? Just so we can have the whole picture. God bless, Ruben

[@WorshipLeaderHangout]

Good idea. Look out for a story here on youtube soon. We use ellipsoidal's and use the blinders on them to keep the light off the set design and only on the front section of the stage. The end result looks very similar to what you see in this video.
