Yup, your right I missed that. It doesn't seem to flash with a pattern though, but it may be the music beat thats throwing me off.

Wow, thats definitly cool.

And i second the notion that the music sounds like TSO. I try to catch their xmas tour each year, i'll have to see when its nearby this year.

Editing video to music is easy to do.... it takes real talent thought to find the right video and match it to the right music.

As to this video... it is very easy to do what they did. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

There is a lot of planning involved... but basically it was all editing. They just shot each light segment independantly then assembled them in the editing process to match the music.

Very easy to do. Just time consuming. A very nice video BTW.

Actually this isn't a video edit job, it's a real Christmas light display set to music.

It's like someone said earlier in this thread, the stop-action appearance is because of the file compression.

For those who don't want to test every audio sample the song is called 'Wizards In Winter'

I wish they played this kind of music in the shops at christmas instead of those "timeless" wonders that drive you crazy http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
