Painfully close…

As you may have read, there’s a SLIGHT delay on the latest (Skeleton Zombie) window animation, as I want to give myself a bit more time to add more things, and really make it look good.  The original animation was done a while ago, but I keep thinking of things to add (effects and actions), so I’m going to have to push the release date until sometime next week (…that being the first week of October).

In the meantime, here’s some work-in-progress preview pics to show you where I’m at, and what you can look forward to!

Hopefully, I run out of ideas soon, so I can finally wrap this thing up and go on to another one!  Apologies to those waiting on this one, but it should be worth the wait!

Zombie skeletons coming this week!

Coming this week!  Skeleton zombies.  A new window animation available for purchase!
Watch for it (and a preview clip) in the Products section!

From Laer: Sorry!  Very slight delay!  It should be available sometime next week.  I just wanted to give myself a bit more time, as I’ve been adding things and really trying to make this look great with some new effects.  I’ll be working on haunt stuff (detailing physical props), but I should be finishing it up early next week.  I just don’t want to rush to get it done for Friday, and compromise the quality.  Plus, I keep thinking of cool stuff to add!

New window slammer !

Hey everybody.  As per requested from folks we have separated out the window slammer as a stand-alone animation for purchase.  He will work great in any playlist you make as he starts and ends in black. Or he can just as effectively loop on his own.

Click on image to see some in action

Keep those requests coming in!

cheers

Best mini projectors 2011

Here is a link to a TOP 10 MINI PROJECTOR review. These are amazingly small and affordable with a variety of inputs and card readers. The projected image size ranges from 5 feet up to 12 feet which is a very versatile range. These smaller sizes do give up some brightness and contrast , but projecting on Halloween night is so dark they should work just fine.

I have used a toy-projector with 50 Lumens and that looked fine. Not as sharp as a more expensive one obviously , but the viewers were all entertained.

New animation is almost done!!

It is another environment animation looking into a bedroom, with a very scared man quivering in bed while things happen around him. Very fun. Roughly 4 minutes long. Will post a sample and get the download page up and running ASAP.

Thanks for reading!

Samurai shadow play

This is a neat use of projectors , combining a live actor with simulated shadow play.

Stereographic 3d visuals

This is an interesting article . The Aussie PINK FLOYD cover band is going to use projectors for adding 3D visuals to their live show . They claim this is a first and it well could be , although KISS did some 3D footage live in 1999. This looks quite more epic though , based on the picture.

Still in progress!

I know it has been insanely quiet on the SCAREMATION front but we are still alive! it was obviously a drag to miss the Halloween deadline but you just have to roll with lifes ups and downs sometimes.

We are still excited and working on the footage. We managed to sneak in some new stuff to the Scaresdale Manor window this year and that got a good reaction. Lots of new designs under way and I promise to update more often. There is some very cool technology out right now and we are also experimenting with that.

Thank you so much to the people who contacted me in October looking to purchase something. I have your emails saved and will send out something to you when we have it all sorted out.

i hope everyone had a great and fun Halloween.
