@@ProjectThisHouse how to choose a projector . I have been search on ebay and they sales have been showing a not sharp images and recomend buy a refurbished ones because the image is better but in this case the price would cost like 750,00 how to choose the right projector from sale on eBay? I know you recommended the brand and model. But how to choose? As an amateur or a beginner. Could you help with it please?
Hi Srg. Dic's. No secrets here: The projector was about $380 on eBay. I already had the software needed (Adobe Creative Cloud), but if not, cheapest deal is $49 for a month's license. I have some purchased video elements from AtmosFX that vary in price. Check out their website. Then of course you need a computer to make it - preferably a laptop so you can run the video from it to the projector too. And an audio interface that can connect to a couple of speakers for the audio. You can check prices on that online. Other than that, it's just the time invested. :)

Thanks. Arturo
Hi gary mcfall. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I'm happy you enjoyed it. It's actually done with a single consumer projector, bought at eBay for $300. :)
Hello, all I can say is WOW!!! This is truly an amazing job you did there. I’m working on my house for 2019 and I’ll share it with you for comments. Can’t wait to see your projection for 2019!
The creative minds that expressed their imaginative inner unique spook, designed and produced this art.. Please continue to indulge us with your time and energy. =)
Hi there. Thanks for stopping by and watching. You can google Projection Mapping or House Projection, but it is basically just using a projector to show a tailor-made video on your house. :)
Hi Andrea Kidd. I'm happy you liked that part, as I was one of my own animations. Too bad I only got a fuzzy recording of it. It looked much better in person. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse I was wondering if you did it yourself. Now I’m even more impressed. I thought that maybe you’d lent your house as a canvas for an animations business like Atmosfx, or are a professional yourself. Your projector must be powerful. Did you do an animations making course? I decided to have a go myself, initially to make a cancellation message because of COVID 19, then I thought I’d share it and now I think I want to keep experimenting. It’s not on a grand scale like yours. I’m only learning how to make videos, so I’m very curious about how you did it. Again, the idea of the skeleton was great. It added suspense. You are so talented. I also think that playing around with this stuff keeps the child in the adult alive. Are you going ahead with your display this year? Sadly, I’ve decided not to, but I’m planning for 2021.
I haven't decided if I want to put forth the effort this year. We usually have a big crowd, so I don't know if it's smart to do it in these COVID-times. :(
@@ProjectThisHouse Yes I understand and I share your concerns. It's very disappointing, especially since it's on a Saturday this year. Anyway, maybe it'll give you some extra time to make 2021 even more spectacular (if possible). Stay healthy.
@@pumpkinhead8633 We actually had big plans for this year, making it a big Halloween block party with a DJ in between the projection showings, but unfortunately it will have to be pushed to next time Halloween falls on a Saturday.:(
Hi Mini DK#9. Thanks for stopping by and watching. If you're referring to just the texture on the walls, I create that myself in Photoshop. If you're referring to the curling of the walls, I did that effect in a 3D program called Cinema4D. :)
Hi Anna. Once you get the technique down, it's actually not going that far out. :) It's like making a short movie, and then just showing it on your house. I appreciate the thumbs up though. :)
Hi Farmer Row21. Thank you for watching. It's fairly simple. First you map your house as the projector sees it. This is done with a paint program. You then take this map, and start filling it with textures and other elements in an editing program and make a video, that you then project back onto the house. Easy peasy, right? (hint: google "projection mapping") :)
Hi Jay. Thanks for stopping by. I don't really know all brands, but if the projector is a short throw projector and has about 2800+ lumens, then you should be good. HOWEVER don't go for the crazy deals on eBay where they say you get a 10000 lumens projector from China for $50. :) I have seen my model on eBay for under $400 which is a steal as you can use it year after year and not only for Halloween.
@@ProjectThisHouse You used a 1080p projector with 2800 lumen? Or is it 4k? Although it looks like you don't have any back lights so no blowing out the projection. Impressive work!
@@joshb5898 My projector is a BenQ MX819ST with 3000 lumens and a native resolution of 1024 x 768, so anything in that range should be able to achieve results like mine. As long as you project onto light colored house walls and block out the closest street lighting (if any) and make sure not to have any lights on inside the house. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse Wow, that's a lower res for a hq throw! Very impressive! I have a lower res projector but only have done window projections... I have a new project!!! Ty for the info! 😃

Hi Shay. Yes, the opening skeleton animation was also part of the projected video. I made that animation myself in Cinema4D, which is why the walk cycle is a bit shotty. LOL.
Hi Richard Villegas. Thanks for stopping by and watching. This projection is made with a BenQ MX819ST projector. It has 3000 lumens. I’ve since moved on to Optoma EH460ST with 4200 lumens. Both are “short throw” projectors, which allows you to place them closer to the house, so you don’t lose too much of the light intensity.
Hi TalkerArt. Unfortunately you need to make your own, but it's totally doable. Get a projector and a paint program on a laptop, then you're already half way there. :)
Let's see..My last year in review was....Step 1: Watch ProjectThisHouse Halloween mapping .... Step 2: be blown away.... Step 3 : Swear that this will be the year that I learn After Effects and Cinema 4d and not follow step by step youtube vids... Step 4: become incredibly busy and not do step 3...Step 5 : put something together and say "next year"... So now I am having a Deja Vue moment haha... AMAZING Job! Love watching your stuff.
ProjectThisHouse can you help me please ... I’m learning blender and after effects off TH-cam xlights has done a great tutorial on mapping but I’m getting stuck one min he is mapping all the separate parts the next min he is copying and pasting the master mask how do I get the master mask to contain all my masks on one layer and also my masks are solid his are outlines how do I do that any help would be appreciated
Hi there, flyinsparkey. Sorry for the slow response. I had to watch the whole video at xlights and it was looooong...but very informative. I think your problem is, that you didn't make masks - you made shapes. It's easy to make that mistake, as you're using the same tool. To make masks, you need to do it with a layer activated, otherwise the tool will create a shape instead on its own layer, hence why you're ending up with a lot of separate layers instead of masks contained in the same layer. I hope that helped you a bit. :)
Hi K, thanks for watching and liking it...and yes, it takes a little work and time to put it together, but when people say nice things about it, it's worth the effort. :)
Hi Hannah. Thanks for stopping by and watching. Well, since projection mapping IS fake, the object is to make it look real. :) How is it done? The first step of the production is to make a precise outline of your house, as it is seen through the projector. This outline is then filled in with textures and videos using various graphics programs depending on ambition and skill. Some of the video elements are purchased, but I make most of it myself. The better you can match the elements to the contours of the house, the more believable the animations will look...even if it's fake. :)
ProjectThisHouse Oops! I must have been typing too fast. I meant to say that it looks real, not fake. That makes sense to map out the house. Did it take you years to get it looking this great?
@@Hannah-io9jb if you look at the other videos on my channel, it started with a naïve attempt in 2014, but even then I think the effect was impressive to watch in person. In the following years it has just been about tweaking details and getting better ideas. :)
Hi Diggin Swahili. Thank you so much for watching. No, I don't sell this. First of all because it contains several videos from AtmosFX I don't have the rights to re-sell, and secondly because I don't have the time to reformat it to fit other houses. I barely have enough time to do one for my own house every year. LOL.
Hi Michael Mastelero. Thanks for watching. I make the videos myself. Everything from mapping the house manually in a paint program, to the actual editing of the video in Adobe After Effects. Some of the elements used are bought from AtmosFX.com. I wish I had the money to buy Lightform. That would definitely make the mapping easier. :)
Hi Paco Ba. There are no dumb questions here. This is done by using a video projector to show a movie custom made to fit to the specs of the house. That was the short version. How you make the actual video is the long story. :)
ProjectThisHouse I guess that was my more direct question, the video itself. I found a company that starts them for 99 dollars but I’m sure making your own is a lot of work. Finding all the animations I haven’t found any other than actually paying for a custom one.
@@pacoba6432 Ha ha, sorry for the misunderstanding. Well, AtmosFX.com is a good place to start, but their videos are just to be used as elements in your own video, as they were ment for a TV, monitor or wall projection. I hope to do some "How To" videos after Halloween, that can give you an idea og how this is done. :)
how did you calibrate that? screens on my house would have been better, yet your method is so cheap. it must have taken -hours- months to calibrate and make , all that going to waste on one night, one day. i cant wait to see what is to happen this time round.
Hi 506. The "calibration", as you call it, is actually pretty simple and done in about 10-15 minutes. You put your projector infront of your your house. Mark the position, so you can replicate it. Then connect a laptop and open a paint program. Make sure the projector is covering the whole house, and then it's just about drawing all the features of your house. You can go simple and just do the big features, or you can be very detailed. Afterwards, you save the outline and use it as a template in your video editing program to fill in the content. As long as you design it according to the outline, the final product will fit your house perfectly....but that was the short story. LOL :)
As the projection seemed to fit your house perfectly (each corner had cladding effect at times etc) I am curious to know if the building projection was bespoke to you? I keep watching and whilst I try to figure it all out I just find myself drifting away and indulging in the whole extravaganza. This is a truly magnificent display. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Hi nom nom. Thank you for watching and for your kind words. Making the projection match the building it is being projected onto so perfectly, is what "projection mapping" is all about. The first step of the production is to make a precise outline of your house, as it is seen through the projector. This outline is then filled in with textures and videos using various graphics programs depending on ambition and skill. Some of the video elements are purchased, but I make most of it myself.
@@ProjectThisHouse You are an extremely talented person. I can't even programme a picaboo so I really appreciate your display. Thanks for the reply. Cheers
I am just starting with some house projections. Wondering what tools you use to make the video. I'm using madmapper to get video on the house but creating the video is still a bit of a challenge. Lots of free stuff out there, but looking for some tips on how to create that great house facade and then how to combine other videos on top of that. For example if I wanted to take the facade and put spiders or a spider web overlayed, so that you can still see the facade. Sorry for rambling, mostly looking for recommendations on video creation.
Hi Michael. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I've just discovered Madmapper myself, so I don't know the capabilities of the software, but basically you have to think of this as layers. First layer is of course the house texture, which I usually find by doing a google search for images of "old wood wall" or "abandoned house" etc. Once you have positioned those images you add the next layer. If you want that to be e.g. the spider web, it needs to be a file with an alpha channel which makes everything but the web transparent. If you have an image with the web on e.g. a black background and no transparency, you have to use a blending mode to make the black see through, but I don't know Madmapper's capabilities in that regard. I hope that helped a bit? Sorry for rambling. LOL :)
Hello fellow Trick or treater I love your house mapping project its one of the top ones on you tube. I am trying to start on a project myself and was hoping I could get some guidance in the right direction. I want to project a AtmosFX pumpkin like yours on my wall but with my own music and sounds. I just don't know what program to use to make my own pumpkin talk. could you send some advice my way. thank you for your time and love for the holiday.
Hi Phillip Guillen. Thanks for stopping by and watching, I really appreciate it. Anything is possible with projection mapping and there's plenty of help and tutorials to get you started. Google "projection mapping tutorial" here on TH-cam and join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping", then you're already halfway there. In your specific case, I would use "Character Animator" from the Adobe Creative Cloud package, and also "After Effects" from the same package. With the first program, you can animate your pumpkin to talk or sing using a webcam on your computer, and then you'd use After Effects to composite that video on a map of your house, with textures and other AtmosFX footage if you like. There are free alternatives to both Character Animator and After Effects, but I'm not too familiar with them to offer any advice. :)
Just Mapped my house and I got it down perfect based on some testing I did. I would like to know how you created the effect of the wall peeling. its very nice! Is it in After Effects if so whats the effect called?
Hi Wes. Thanks for watching. Good to hear your mapping is done and working. I did the peeling effect in Cinema4D, so it's actually real 3D and took a while to model, but it was worth it, i think. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse IT was DEF Worth it. What is that effect called if I wanted to watch a tutorial or read more about it so I can learn? Getting Cinema4D NOW btw.
Hi Christine Binning. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I made it myself with some of the elements coming from AtmosFX.com. Please let me know if the family likes it too. :)
Hi R1Sky Manic. This is not expensive to do. The projector I used can be bought on eBay for as low as $79. Then you just need a computer with some kind of video editing software. There are some free ones out there: E.g. VSDC Free Video Editor or DaVinci Resolve (Mac). Add a couple of speakers and you're all set. :)
Hi Beau Copeland. Thanks for stopping by and watching. This is called projection mapping and is done using a projector to show a video onto a house. The video is tailor made to fit the features of the house, so it looks like the house is actually transformed. :)
@@beaucopeland243 If you have the projector, you're almost there. However, it matters which projector you have. It needs to have a light intensity of least 3500 ANSI lumens and depending on where you can place it to cover your house, you may need it to be a "short throw" model, which projects in wide angle. The software to create the video can be downloaded for free. But I suggest you google "Projection Mapping Tutorial", as the process needs a bit more explaining that i can give you here. :)
Hi Greg McAteer. Thanks for stopping by and watching. This is done with a single consumer video projector (BenQ MX819ST with 3000 lumens), audio is coming through a PA system (Behringer EUROPORT EPS500MP3 PA System with 500 Watt) and the projected video is homemade using Adobe Photoshop, Adobe After Effects and Cinema4D, with some elements bought at AtmosFX.com. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse Thanks for quick response. I love that you change it up every year also. Do you have a FB page? Or anywhere you may some tutorial content. Thanks again!
@@ProjectThisHouse yup, totally get it. Whenever you get more details, would love to see it. I'm just getting into this and I don't seem to be able to get the brightness that some people are. Your images look crystal clear. I'm using an Optamo EH412ST which is 4k lumens...but feels like a lot of the content is subdued. Thanks and Happy Halloween!
@@gmcateer08, your light intensity depends on how far back your projector is placed. 4000 lumens placed 30 feet away is obviously not the same as 4000 lumens placed 60 ft away. The loss of light intensity over distance is brutal. Goggle the "Inverse-Square Law of Light". But if you look at my projections, I've learned through trial and error which colors I can use, and which ones just turn up as a muddled mess. So I'm sticking to a reduced palette with mostly bright colors. :)
Hi Dorothy Garcia. This is a video that is being projected onto the house using a consumer video projector. The video has been tailormade to fit all the contours of the house, which is why it looks so real. :)
Omg awesome I am so excited I will never forget your talent and thank you for every smile you put on friends family and strangers and kids.Happy Halloween.😮😊🎃🧟🧟♂️🧛🧛♂️
Is there anyway to get some how to videos? Or even in the description it would be nice to at least know what programs or sites you use for all your amazing work
Hi Gary Hawkins. Yes, you're right, I should have put more information in the description back when I first posted this video, as I've answered hundreds and hundreds of questions like yours over the years. But I like the interaction, so here goes: I use Adobe Photoshop for the base textures of the house. I make the 3D animations in Cinema4D - and buy some that are pre-made from AtmosFX - I assemble all the animations and effects with the Photoshop-textures in Adobe AfterEffects, and render a raw video out from there. I use Adobe Premier to add the soundtrack and effects to the raw video for the final product. Now, I did plan to make some tutorials, but still haven't gotten around to it. There are some here on TH-cam that are very detailed, so just search for "house mapping tutorial". :)
@@ProjectThisHouse wow awesome! Thank you for the update! I really appreciate it! I have a question... I'm trying to come up with a possible business idea and see if I could start a projection mapping business for individuals looking to get it installed on their house for the holidays.... how possible do you think that could be? And ideas or suggestions?
@Gary Hawkins There's already a handful of people out there offering the services you're referring to, but I don't know how lucrative it is when you count in the time it takes to individually alter each projection to fit a new house every time. And then there's the legality of using copyrighted material and music, if you're not making everything from scratch yourself. I think it would be easier to make a business that creates elements that people can use in their own projections, just like AtmosFX does. But is there a market for what you suggest? Absolutely! :)
Trying to put something together for Christmas on my house this year. Trying to get started and having a bit of trouble figuring out the whole mapping > end result video workflow. I have photoshop and HitFilm Express but just not sure how to begin the mapping process and how to translate that to video. Maybe you could shed some light on that. No pun intended! Lol!!! Btw- I am awaiting a short throw projector which will be here in a few days and am getting my projection box setup and ready to go. Now I just need some more know how! Thanks for any tips you can give! Great job!
you need to may with the projector on and in its final location. meaning table or stand made to exact height and either paint or screws to locate on floor.
Hi PreciousGem. Sorry I haven't answered sooner, but your comment kind of got lost among all the others. I wonder if you succeeded with your project. If you did, please post a link to the video. If not, let me know where you stalled, and maybe I can give you a few pointers.:)
You blew it away again. Love the effort you put in. I had some great intentions for this years projection mapping but life got crazy and I was not able to get it done. I will try for Christmas.

Thank you, Jose. No pressure, right? :) I'm looking forward to see what you come up with.
This is really well done. Im glad people get to watch it on here if they aren't really there. Thank you for this amazing production
Thank you, Bri Kennedy. I'm happy you enjoyed it. :)
1:33 I feel offended that the answer wasn’t bonemeal.
Good one, Herobrine. We love Minecraft in our house. :)
The creative minds that expressed their imaginative inner unique spook, designed and produced this art.. Please continue to indulge us with your time and energy. =)
Hi Potent Quadrant. Thank you so much for watching and your kind words. I'm happy you enjoyed it. :)
This is impressive, would definitely stop me in my tracks if I walked past it.
Hi Micah. I'm happy you enjoyed it. It's pretty impressive when seen in person because of the scale of it.. :)
Watching for the 50th time..still amazing💀👀💖🦴👻☠️👹🎃
Hi Della Siwka. I really appreciate the support. I'm happy you enjoy it so much. :)
I love this and my question is, how in the world do you do this? I have absolutely no clue. Thank you for the entertainment
Hi there. Thanks for stopping by and watching. You can google Projection Mapping or House Projection, but it is basically just using a projector to show a tailor-made video on your house. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse wonderful thank you so much
That pumpkin should be the opening act for The Live from Hell Comedy Tour starring Sam Kinison.
I'm make sure to pass on your comment to management, but knowing the ego of said pumpkin, I don't think he's up for anything but a headlining gig! :)

That looks awesome! I think the skeleton lighting up the house was my favourite part. Everyone would have loved it!
Hi Andrea Kidd. I'm happy you liked that part, as I was one of my own animations. Too bad I only got a fuzzy recording of it. It looked much better in person. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse I was wondering if you did it yourself. Now I’m even more impressed. I thought that maybe you’d lent your house as a canvas for an animations business like Atmosfx, or are a professional yourself. Your projector must be powerful. Did you do an animations making course? I decided to have a go myself, initially to make a cancellation message because of COVID 19, then I thought I’d share it and now I think I want to keep experimenting. It’s not on a grand scale like yours. I’m only learning how to make videos, so I’m very curious about how you did it. Again, the idea of the skeleton was great. It added suspense. You are so talented. I also think that playing around with this stuff keeps the child in the adult alive. Are you going ahead with your display this year? Sadly, I’ve decided not to, but I’m planning for 2021.
I haven't decided if I want to put forth the effort this year. We usually have a big crowd, so I don't know if it's smart to do it in these COVID-times. :(
@@ProjectThisHouse Yes I understand and I share your concerns. It's very disappointing, especially since it's on a Saturday this year. Anyway, maybe it'll give you some extra time to make 2021 even more spectacular (if possible). Stay healthy.
@@pumpkinhead8633 We actually had big plans for this year, making it a big Halloween block party with a DJ in between the projection showings, but unfortunately it will have to be pushed to next time Halloween falls on a Saturday.:(
That is freaking awesome!
Thank you Sutter Family. I see you're from California. If you're in the Sacramento area for Halloween, swing by and check it out in person. :)
Did you create the rundown building siding texture used here or is that sourced from somwhere?
Hi Mini DK#9. Thanks for stopping by and watching. If you're referring to just the texture on the walls, I create that myself in Photoshop. If you're referring to the curling of the walls, I did that effect in a 3D program called Cinema4D. :)
I will props to anyone that goes this far out. No matter Christmas, Thxgiving,or Halloween..💯💯👍
Hi Anna. Once you get the technique down, it's actually not going that far out. :) It's like making a short movie, and then just showing it on your house. I appreciate the thumbs up though. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse You welcome, 💯✝️👍
Why did TH-cam recommend me this one day after Halloween? It just makes me miss Halloween even more!
Someone take that one kid and yeet him somewhere else
Watching this because I’m sad Halloween is over! This was so entertaining and cool by the way!
Thank you for stopping by and watching, Jenna. :)
wow this was 5 minutes worth my time.
I appreciate you stopping by and liked it. That makes it worth it for me too. :)
How is this even possible its amazing
Hi Farmer Row21. Thank you for watching. It's fairly simple. First you map your house as the projector sees it. This is done with a paint program. You then take this map, and start filling it with textures and other elements in an editing program and make a video, that you then project back onto the house. Easy peasy, right? (hint: google "projection mapping") :)
Whats another brand of projectors do you recommend besides the benq that dont cost so much
Hi Jay. Thanks for stopping by. I don't really know all brands, but if the projector is a short throw projector and has about 2800+ lumens, then you should be good. HOWEVER don't go for the crazy deals on eBay where they say you get a 10000 lumens projector from China for $50. :) I have seen my model on eBay for under $400 which is a steal as you can use it year after year and not only for Halloween.
@@ProjectThisHouse You used a 1080p projector with 2800 lumen? Or is it 4k? Although it looks like you don't have any back lights so no blowing out the projection. Impressive work!
@@joshb5898 My projector is a BenQ MX819ST with 3000 lumens and a native resolution of 1024 x 768, so anything in that range should be able to achieve results like mine. As long as you project onto light colored house walls and block out the closest street lighting (if any) and make sure not to have any lights on inside the house. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse Wow, that's a lower res for a hq throw! Very impressive! I have a lower res projector but only have done window projections... I have a new project!!! Ty for the info! 😃
@@ProjectThisHouse thanks for the reply i been looking on youtube for review before i buy one i seen those wish projectors thank god i showed my wife before she order a cheap one on how the picture quality really is but thanks for the info you video is awesome i live in a small town and no one has anything like this and my new neighbor thinks his hunted house is the best lol my 6 year daughter want me to blow him away lol
Sorry for all the questions it the atmosfx website has a project but I assume it would be no where near as bright as the one you are using?
No, they are not as bright. They don’t list the lumens on their website, but with the bulbs they use, I can tell it’s not very powerful.
WOWWW!! Absolutely Amazing!.😍
Thank you, Russ. :)
I want this! That’s what I call a Halloween scare! Love the skeleton
Hi elishasimmons4489. Thanks for watching. I'm happy you enjoyed it :)
That's insane! In love with this
Hi Kathleen. Thanks for watching. I'm happy you liked it. :)
The ending was the best part. I loved it. I enjoy Halloween.
Thanks you for watching and liking it, Malicxy. :)
I get the last joke, about, pumpkin patch. Instead of a pirate's "eye" patch. Lol
Best pumpkin, king of jokes! (other than sans) And at least that kid has a good working humerous. The pumpkin's got my vote! He was a carve abouve the rest! :D This projection was super amazing!!!! 12/10!!!! :D
Hi CosplayMemories14. Thanks you for stopping by and watching. I'm happy you liked it...and the kid. :)
How did u do the skeleton ? Was it with what projector ?? And where did y get the animation frkm .?
Was it atmos fx ? What version ?
Hi Shay. Yes, the opening skeleton animation was also part of the projected video. I made that animation myself in Cinema4D, which is why the walk cycle is a bit shotty. LOL.
@@ProjectThisHouse oh cool! What projector did u use ?
Maybe shoot a tutorial on the cinema 4d work u did ?
@@ShayVidas The projector is a BenQ MX819ST...and we'll see when I get to making some tutorials. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse that's only a 3000 lumens projector? Seems much brighter. Amazing job with the animations.
@vinstinct Yup, 3000 lumens. And thank you for liking it. :)
What is the projector called that u used to do this I been trying to find out where to get 1..
Hi Richard Villegas. Thanks for stopping by and watching. This projection is made with a BenQ MX819ST projector. It has 3000 lumens. I’ve since moved on to Optoma EH460ST with 4200 lumens. Both are “short throw” projectors, which allows you to place them closer to the house, so you don’t lose too much of the light intensity.
We’re can I get this
Hi TalkerArt. Unfortunately you need to make your own, but it's totally doable. Get a projector and a paint program on a laptop, then you're already half way there. :)
Thx for getting back to me
Let me know when I can just buy one
You can try and swing by digitalpressworks.com. He sells pre-made projections. :)
Love the use of AtmosFX in your show, great job!
Hi Jeff McMahan. Thanks for visiting my channel. Yes, if it hadn't been for AtmosFX, my projections would have been very short. LOL. :)
Let's see..My last year in review was....Step 1: Watch ProjectThisHouse Halloween mapping .... Step 2: be blown away.... Step 3 : Swear that this will be the year that I learn After Effects and Cinema 4d and not follow step by step youtube vids... Step 4: become incredibly busy and not do step 3...Step 5 : put something together and say "next year"... So now I am having a Deja Vue moment haha... AMAZING Job! Love watching your stuff.
Ha ha, very funny. Maybe you can write some material for my pumpkin next year? As always: Thank you for your kind words. They make it all worth it. :)
ProjectThisHouse can you help me please ... I’m learning blender and after effects off TH-cam xlights has done a great tutorial on mapping but I’m getting stuck one min he is mapping all the separate parts the next min he is copying and pasting the master mask how do I get the master mask to contain all my masks on one layer and also my masks are solid his are outlines how do I do that any help would be appreciated
Hi there, flyinsparkey. Sorry for the slow response. I had to watch the whole video at xlights and it was looooong...but very informative. I think your problem is, that you didn't make masks - you made shapes. It's easy to make that mistake, as you're using the same tool. To make masks, you need to do it with a layer activated, otherwise the tool will create a shape instead on its own layer, hence why you're ending up with a lot of separate layers instead of masks contained in the same layer. I hope that helped you a bit. :)
Absolutely brilliant! Very entertaining. You must have put alot of work into creating this. It is absolutely faultless. 👏👏👏👏
Hi K, thanks for watching and liking it...and yes, it takes a little work and time to put it together, but when people say nice things about it, it's worth the effort. :)
This is honestly soo cute. Haha made my day.
Thank you, Queen Star. :)
This projection is so flawless that it looks fake! Beautiful! I want to know how it is done!
Hi Hannah. Thanks for stopping by and watching. Well, since projection mapping IS fake, the object is to make it look real. :) How is it done? The first step of the production is to make a precise outline of your house, as it is seen through the projector. This outline is then filled in with textures and videos using various graphics programs depending on ambition and skill. Some of the video elements are purchased, but I make most of it myself. The better you can match the elements to the contours of the house, the more believable the animations will look...even if it's fake. :)
ProjectThisHouse Oops! I must have been typing too fast. I meant to say that it looks real, not fake. That makes sense to map out the house. Did it take you years to get it looking this great?
@@Hannah-io9jb if you look at the other videos on my channel, it started with a naïve attempt in 2014, but even then I think the effect was impressive to watch in person. In the following years it has just been about tweaking details and getting better ideas. :)
ProjectThisHouse Wow! Well, all that hard work definitely paid off because it looks awesome.
This is amazing !!!! How about a tutorial?
Hi Ken. Thank you. I'm happy you liked it, and I am (still) planning on making some how-to videos to share. :)
Hello. Love it!!! What software did you use to create your projections? Adobe? Have you created tutorials yet? Thanks
Bravo I loved it very cool.. thank you for reminding the kids Halloween is more than just being scary it's a celebration of night!!
I think instead of pumpkins, there should be "skulls" fillung the windows, and then a "big" skull coming out of the garage.
Excellent suggestion, Cdog. I'll have that in mind for future projections. :)
That had to be one of the best I've ever seen.
Hi Alliecatt Minto. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I'm happy you liked it. :)
girl in background when walls peel *its like its from coraline*
Do you customize and sell these if I do a house outline? Thanks!
Hi Diggin Swahili. Thank you so much for watching. No, I don't sell this. First of all because it contains several videos from AtmosFX I don't have the rights to re-sell, and secondly because I don't have the time to reformat it to fit other houses. I barely have enough time to do one for my own house every year. LOL.
@@ProjectThisHouse Thank you for your response! Happy Halloween!
@@msgoodygal Right back at you. :)
That was absolutely amazing
Thank you, Shade. I appreciate you stopping by and liking it. :)
Where'd you get the videos from? Is this via Lightform?
Hi Michael Mastelero. Thanks for watching. I make the videos myself. Everything from mapping the house manually in a paint program, to the actual editing of the video in Adobe After Effects. Some of the elements used are bought from AtmosFX.com. I wish I had the money to buy Lightform. That would definitely make the mapping easier. :)
This is probably a dumb question when I can look it up, but how did you do this? Thanks
Hi Paco Ba. There are no dumb questions here. This is done by using a video projector to show a movie custom made to fit to the specs of the house. That was the short version. How you make the actual video is the long story. :)
ProjectThisHouse I guess that was my more direct question, the video itself. I found a company that starts them for 99 dollars but I’m sure making your own is a lot of work. Finding all the animations I haven’t found any other than actually paying for a custom one.
@@pacoba6432 Ha ha, sorry for the misunderstanding. Well, AtmosFX.com is a good place to start, but their videos are just to be used as elements in your own video, as they were ment for a TV, monitor or wall projection. I hope to do some "How To" videos after Halloween, that can give you an idea og how this is done. :)
how did you calibrate that? screens on my house would have been better, yet your method is so cheap. it must have taken -hours- months to calibrate and make , all that going to waste on one night, one day. i cant wait to see what is to happen this time round.
Hi 506. The "calibration", as you call it, is actually pretty simple and done in about 10-15 minutes. You put your projector infront of your your house. Mark the position, so you can replicate it. Then connect a laptop and open a paint program. Make sure the projector is covering the whole house, and then it's just about drawing all the features of your house. You can go simple and just do the big features, or you can be very detailed.
Afterwards, you save the outline and use it as a template in your video editing program to fill in the content. As long as you design it according to the outline, the final product will fit your house perfectly....but that was the short story. LOL :)
@@ProjectThisHouse ah, yes. i think i might as well stick to lmms and make music, my family never celebrates halloween anyways.
thank you.
As the projection seemed to fit your house perfectly (each corner had cladding effect at times etc) I am curious to know if the building projection was bespoke to you?
I keep watching and whilst I try to figure it all out I just find myself drifting away and indulging in the whole extravaganza.
This is a truly magnificent display.
Thanks for sharing this with us.
Hi nom nom. Thank you for watching and for your kind words. Making the projection match the building it is being projected onto so perfectly, is what "projection mapping" is all about. The first step of the production is to make a precise outline of your house, as it is seen through the projector. This outline is then filled in with textures and videos using various graphics programs depending on ambition and skill. Some of the video elements are purchased, but I make most of it myself.

I'am happy you liked it, Kathie. That makes all the work worth while. :)
I love the kid just saying all the answers to the jokes
I am just starting with some house projections. Wondering what tools you use to make the video. I'm using madmapper to get video on the house but creating the video is still a bit of a challenge. Lots of free stuff out there, but looking for some tips on how to create that great house facade and then how to combine other videos on top of that. For example if I wanted to take the facade and put spiders or a spider web overlayed, so that you can still see the facade. Sorry for rambling, mostly looking for recommendations on video creation.
Hi Michael. Thanks for stopping by and watching. I've just discovered Madmapper myself, so I don't know the capabilities of the software, but basically you have to think of this as layers. First layer is of course the house texture, which I usually find by doing a google search for images of "old wood wall" or "abandoned house" etc. Once you have positioned those images you add the next layer. If you want that to be e.g. the spider web, it needs to be a file with an alpha channel which makes everything but the web transparent. If you have an image with the web on e.g. a black background and no transparency, you have to use a blending mode to make the black see through, but I don't know Madmapper's capabilities in that regard. I hope that helped a bit? Sorry for rambling. LOL :)
we did something like this in our house
Hi Purplecil 202. Can you post a link? I'd like to check it out and maybe get some new ideas. :)

Hi Duckyy. Unfortunately we can't surprise our neighbors anymore. LOL
Hello fellow Trick or treater I love your house mapping project its one of the top ones on you tube. I am trying to start on a project myself and was hoping I could get some guidance in the right direction. I want to project a AtmosFX pumpkin like yours on my wall but with my own music and sounds. I just don't know what program to use to make my own pumpkin talk. could you send some advice my way. thank you for your time and love for the holiday.
Hi Phillip Guillen. Thanks for stopping by and watching, I really appreciate it. Anything is possible with projection mapping and there's plenty of help and tutorials to get you started. Google "projection mapping tutorial" here on TH-cam and join the Facebook group "Holiday Projection Mapping", then you're already halfway there. In your specific case, I would use "Character Animator" from the Adobe Creative Cloud package, and also "After Effects" from the same package. With the first program, you can animate your pumpkin to talk or sing using a webcam on your computer, and then you'd use After Effects to composite that video on a map of your house, with textures and other AtmosFX footage if you like. There are free alternatives to both Character Animator and After Effects, but I'm not too familiar with them to offer any advice. :)
Today @ TH-cam: the drunk house that is telling jokes
Just Mapped my house and I got it down perfect based on some testing I did. I would like to know how you created the effect of the wall peeling. its very nice! Is it in After Effects if so whats the effect called?
Hi Wes. Thanks for watching. Good to hear your mapping is done and working. I did the peeling effect in Cinema4D, so it's actually real 3D and took a while to model, but it was worth it, i think. :)

Hi R1Sky Manic. This is not expensive to do. The projector I used can be bought on eBay for as low as $79. Then you just need a computer with some kind of video editing software.

What equipment is needed to do this
Hi Beau Copeland. Thanks for stopping by and watching. This is called projection mapping and is done using a projector to show a video onto a house. The video is tailor made to fit the features of the house, so it looks like the house is actually transformed. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse I have a projector, what else would be needed? What does a setup like this cost
@@beaucopeland243 If you have the projector, you're almost there. However, it matters which projector you have. It needs to have a light intensity of least 3500 ANSI lumens and depending on where you can place it to cover your house, you may need it to be a "short throw" model, which projects in wide angle. The software to create the video can be downloaded for free. But I suggest you google "Projection Mapping Tutorial", as the process needs a bit more explaining that i can give you here. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse Awesome, I'll check out the software. My projector isn't a short throw but it's got the lumens for it.
2019 anyone?

Me too
Great job! Can you give some details on your setup? Which projectors, using Adobe AE? this is very cool, thanks!
Hi Greg McAteer. Thanks for stopping by and watching. This is done with a single consumer video projector (BenQ MX819ST with 3000 lumens), audio is coming through a PA system (Behringer EUROPORT EPS500MP3 PA System with 500 Watt) and the projected video is homemade using Adobe Photoshop, Adobe After Effects and Cinema4D, with some elements bought at AtmosFX.com. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse Thanks for quick response. I love that you change it up every year also. Do you have a FB page? Or anywhere you may some tutorial content. Thanks again!
@@gmcateer08 I'm planning on doing some tutorials, but with a family and a full time job, it's hard to find time for my hobbies. :)
@@ProjectThisHouse yup, totally get it. Whenever you get more details, would love to see it. I'm just getting into this and I don't seem to be able to get the brightness that some people are. Your images look crystal clear. I'm using an Optamo EH412ST which is 4k lumens...but feels like a lot of the content is subdued. Thanks and Happy Halloween!
@@gmcateer08, your light intensity depends on how far back your projector is placed. 4000 lumens placed 30 feet away is obviously not the same as 4000 lumens placed 60 ft away. The loss of light intensity over distance is brutal. Goggle the "Inverse-Square Law of Light". But if you look at my projections, I've learned through trial and error which colors I can use, and which ones just turn up as a muddled mess. So I'm sticking to a reduced palette with mostly bright colors. :)

Is there anyway to get some how to videos? Or even in the description it would be nice to at least know what programs or sites you use for all your amazing work
Hi Gary Hawkins. Yes, you're right, I should have put more information in the description back when I first posted this video, as I've answered hundreds and hundreds of questions like yours over the years. But I like the interaction, so here goes: I use Adobe Photoshop for the base textures of the house. I make the 3D animations in Cinema4D - and buy some that are pre-made from AtmosFX - I assemble all the animations and effects with the Photoshop-textures in Adobe AfterEffects, and render a raw video out from there. I use Adobe Premier to add the soundtrack and effects to the raw video for the final product. Now, I did plan to make some tutorials, but still haven't gotten around to it. There are some here on TH-cam that are very detailed, so just search for "house mapping tutorial". :)
@@ProjectThisHouse wow awesome! Thank you for the update! I really appreciate it! I have a question... I'm trying to come up with a possible business idea and see if I could start a projection mapping business for individuals looking to get it installed on their house for the holidays.... how possible do you think that could be? And ideas or suggestions?
@Gary Hawkins There's already a handful of people out there offering the services you're referring to, but I don't know how lucrative it is when you count in the time it takes to individually alter each projection to fit a new house every time. And then there's the legality of using copyrighted material and music, if you're not making everything from scratch yourself. I think it would be easier to make a business that creates elements that people can use in their own projections, just like AtmosFX does. But is there a market for what you suggest? Absolutely! :)
Trying to put something together for Christmas on my house this year. Trying to get started and having a bit of trouble figuring out the whole mapping > end result video workflow. I have photoshop and HitFilm Express but just not sure how to begin the mapping process and how to translate that to video. Maybe you could shed some light on that. No pun intended! Lol!!! Btw- I am awaiting a short throw projector which will be here in a few days and am getting my projection box setup and ready to go. Now I just need some more know how! Thanks for any tips you can give! Great job!
you need to may with the projector on and in its final location. meaning table or stand made to exact height and either paint or screws to locate on floor.
Hi PreciousGem. Sorry I haven't answered sooner, but your comment kind of got lost among all the others. I wonder if you succeeded with your project. If you did, please post a link to the video. If not, let me know where you stalled, and maybe I can give you a few pointers.:)
You blew it away again. Love the effort you put in. I had some great intentions for this years projection mapping but life got crazy and I was not able to get it done. I will try for Christmas.
Thank you for your kind words. It is a bit of a commitment, but well worth the time spent when you see the little ones taking it all in and reacting to it. Especially in an age, where most of their entertainment comes through a little screen. :)
