DIY Light Show- Disney Spectaculars

WARNING: This show contains fast, flashing lights. Watch in 1080p for best clarity. This is my first fully automated light show built at home. It took about 4 months of on-and-off work. It's not perfect, but I've learned a lot and now know how to improve future projects. Like any other performance, it looks better in person. The video element is usually displayed on the monitor, but for recording purposes it was superimposed in post-production. It is synced with the lights and audio in real-time. I know it's janky but I had fun making this little show based on some of my biggest sources of inspiration :) METHOD: The lights are cheap knockoffs and can be found on EBay. This show contains 3 washes and 2 moving heads controlled via DMX. The moving heads have a separate white channel, which was a nice surprise. They are LOUD and pretty dim compared to professional fixtures, but they're perfect for playing with at home. The show was programmed on DMXControl 3 (Windows) using 100% follow cues. I've leaned that this method is horribly inefficient and will look into using timecode or similar methods in future projects. The software itself is great, but the documentation isn't the best for English speakers. There was a lot of trial and error to get certain effects and timings just right. To allow the light control software to communicate with the fixtures, I used a DMXKing ultraDMX Micro (USB to DMX interface). Before purchasing this, I used 2 cheaper interfaces (uDMX and some other Chinese dongle) which failed within the first few weeks of use. The DMXKing interface was not recognized natively by my light controller- this was fixed by broadcasting to ArtNet, then having the interface read that rather than direct control. Surprisingly, there is little to no latency when issuing instruction! Any questions? Leave a comment and I'll try to answer. Thanks for watching!
