Incredible result!
HOLY SMOKES YOU MADE THAT LOOK SO SIMPLE THANK YOU
Great video I really want to try this out!! 👏📽
Good job!
Win+P is the quickest way to the second screen selection menu 🤙🏼
Love this !
Thank you!
Saw this in our Facebook Halloween group. Phenomenal video bro. Thank you.
Your welcome! Hope it helps 👍
This is soooooooo freaking cool
Thanks man
Very cool. Of all the videos I watched, this one showed the best about the mapping and the projector used. Here in Brazil, in recent years people have started to like Halloween more and more. However, these projections in common houses still do not exist here. I was interested in doing this around here. But I would like to know better about a good projector, that works well and that has a nice effect, since there are many light poles here that ask to damage the effect.
One of the better more popular short throws projectors is the Optoma 1090hdr. I would go with that. Anything much brighter really starts to get expensive quick.
Sou um estudante de artes pesquisando sobre isso ! espero que passamos a ter mais projeção de mapeamento aqui!
Thank u
Caramba! Isso foi um divisor de águas para mim! Hahaha cool!
nice working respect you :) but can you tell me why immersive mapping try to turning off when start other program?? like unreal engine or something ..
If you dont have a projector that can throw the entire house with an image/video and or you still like to decorate with lights etc.
Try just putting up a show on your garage or flat are on the front of your house.
Last year we had FX P. do a garage projection show and because we do heavier snowman yard decoarations. We did a snowman show along with a couple short shows with trees and gingerbread men. Folks were blown away that I had that going.
We even had to have our projector way off to the side and hidden. The show was just sized to that odd angle and it was perfect.
So if you have a cheeper or older projector. Its possible to still create an awesome house show the the hollidays.
Oh, and we won one of our cities best yard awards for Christmas.🎉😊
Where can i find the mapping software
Read.
Is this how the Seattle space needle show was done, obviously with a much bigger and more expensive setup? I'm really interested in learning this craft for an art show. I'm a painter, but this tech stuff is fascinating -- I would love to incorporate it into an immersive art show -- I just don't know where to begin. Thank you so much for the upload. Take care!!
Thank you! I believe the space needle show was all done behind the computer screen with no actual projections. But I love combining projections with art. I mainly keep this UA-cam channel for house projections but I have a bit more artsy stuff on my IG channel if you want to check out out! It's also fx projections 👍
@@fxprojections9769 Absolutely!! Thank you so much, you have a new subscriber here from Florida. Have a great day!!
@@LadyO_333 Hey I'm based out of Florida also! The St Pete area. But thank you very much
@@fxprojections9769 Very cool!!! I'm in Gainesville -- great to meet you.
Do you know if you offer any mapping software for Table presentation for cooking etv ?
🔥🔥🔥
thank you for the tutorial. What do you recommend to map with on a mac?
Send me an email at rtuttle@fxprojections.com. Ill have to send you a file that will work with mac's 👍
Hi I’m new and I want to know which projector is better to do mapping if you trying to do something indoors for a wedding or birthday in a large hall? I’m trying to do something for my sister in June and I’m still looking around where to find classes for mapping or to do her favorite show in her day. Any suggestion
It really comes down to the projectors throw ratio first. How big of a surface are you trying to project on and is there a specific distance back you'd like the projector to be placed at? Feel free to message me through my website 👍 FxProjections.com
Show!!
Awesome man, but what software do you like? Madmapper, Adobe after effects, the list goes on. What did you start with? What are you using now? Awesome, brilliant content! MAp on with yo bad self!
Thanks! I do use madmapper but not typically for house shows. I use the free outliner tool (link in description) for the mapping part and then Adobe After Effects for the show creation. I started with AE and lightform and still use both. 👍
Do you have a software download for Mac OS?
What is the mapping outline software used in the video ? It’s not mentioned
The download software is on this page fxprojections.com/outliner-software

Is that the $1000 optima projector you're using. That's bright as hell. I would have though I would have to spend 4 times as much. Thanks for letting us know.
I actually think this one was the $750 ViewSonic one. But it's not as expensive as many think.. depending who you ask lol
@@fxprojections9769 ok Thanks! sometimes ebay has some sweet deals on projectors
@3:28 what projection is this on? Cool effect. Thanks.
Thank you! It's in this video 👍 ua-cam.com/video/3VDiV8X1qxU/v-deo.html
Which software is recommended if I want to create my own video for projection mapping
Adobe after effects or davinci resolve are the popular options
Beautiful projection ! Which time of projector you use?
I'm using the ViewSonic px706hd here. It's about 25 feet from my house
@@fxprojections9769 How many lumens does this projector have?
This one is 3,000 lumens
What program do you use to make the animations ?
I use Adobe After Effects
can you suggest me which projector will be best for 15ft×30ft building and which software i should use
Any of the 3 projectors should work fine in this link along with the outliner software. 👍 fxprojections.com/house-shows
@@fxprojections9769 thanks mate I'll go for optoma 1080hdr one 3800lm
Hi there. In your case what's the width of your projection/house? Awesome video by the way.
Thank you! My house is 53 feet long
@@fxprojections9769 And how far back is your projector? (aprox). I've been doing pixels for 5 years and thinking of adding projections for 2024.
@@trevilights it's all about the projectors throw ratio but roughly 30 feet here. There's more info on my website here 👍 fxprojections.com/house-shows
awesome tutorial
Thank you! 😊
How are you getting the image of your house into the mapping software? Are you using your laptop's camera?
No image of the house goes on the laptop. It's just a white screen (that is mirrored to the projector) and then you drag and drop the lines onto the house.
@@fxprojections9769 OH OH OH! I get it! Total mind block on that one. lol Thanks!
But what happens when you edit it. And you have to go again projection map it, does it stay the same resolution?
What program did you use to map the house ?
Here's the link to it 👍
fxprojections.com/outliner-software
Can i map regular plain walls with your software ?
If i already outlined the surface and then proceed to mask my video content to its shape, that would mean i can project it without any mapping software right?
Yep that's correct 👍
What do you use for your speaker setup?
I live on a corner lot and have 3 different setups. all different projectors, speakers and media players. But using an aux cord rather than Bluetooth is always my go to
Hi!
I've got my outline of the house now. How do i make it in the video editor so that the video only shows up in the designated area?
Which video editor are you using? If AE, you'll need to create a black solid layer, then use the pen tool and outline the house creating a mask. Then I believe you invert it.
@@fxprojections9769 I use Videopad for my pejects, is it still possible?
@@daniel_waeber unfortunately I don't know anything about that one. After effects and davinci resolve are the top 2 popular options
Hi! How do you cover or hide the excesse of projector light around the house not to be notice to people watching
Once you import the house outline in the video editing software, you mask/black it out and do all the graphics within the house border
Use a projector with a very high contrast ratio. That will eliminate that annoying light grey box that most projectors emit
Ok how you outline the house on real time ?
Will you help me in learning this course
I don't have a course currently. My website does have a good bit of info though 👍
FxProjections.com
Would this project be possible with 2 projectors If just one doesn´t cover up?
Not doing it this way. There's other ways but it gets complicated
What's the program called??? I need this for my 1969 RV. I already made it look like ghosts are inside the RV, but this program would be alot better than the UA-cam projector videos I'm using..😂 I would be able to set up each of the 3 front windows PERFECTLY.
The mapper tool is on my website in this link.
fxprojections.com/outliner-software
Then I use Adobe After Effects for the editing 👍
what size should be a composition in after effects including masks?
Comp should be the resolution of your projector. Masks should be the same. If the saved outline has a smaller resolution (it happens often), you might need to upscale it to that resolution
@@fxprojections9769 i didn't get if I have. House for ex and top has real sky, when I mask only house and sky part on after effects will be black? So projector will stream masked house with black scene?
@@fxprojections9769 i have a projector with only USB input. IS that will work instead of using media player? Also can i just mask my building with after effects pen tool?
What is the web site where we can download the projection maps please?
If your talking about the mapping/outliner tool here it is
fxprojections.com/outliner-software
Can you pick a 30 to 60 sec video clip (like from a movie) and map it?
Yep, screen record it and then drop that video file into a video editor or mapping software and fit it accordingly
Hi there. I have hours and hours of video footage. All made into 6 or 7 shows. But these are all what I would count as a normal cinema projection.
What I would like to do is incorporate different video clips in the windows and doorways.
I’m trying to find templates or instructions on how to do it. Do you have any ideas?
I have 10 projectors. At the moment the only way I do it is to block a section off with a piece of card then use another projector to fill the shadow with new content.
Any help is greatly appreciated

So if I understand you correctly.. you really just want projections using multiple projectors in each window? If so, I would project from the inside onto a thin white fabric and flip the image in the projector settings. You can go to AtmosFX website and they have good info on this. I mainly focus on full house shows using typically 1 projector.
Thanks for the speedy response.
I have nearly all the atmosFX videos. Expensive but we’ll worth the money. You were close with your answer to my question. Unfortunately due to space and location I can’t really project from inside on to the widows and doorways.
However, I think I might have found the solution. I came across a free application mapmap. They show animations on cakes in the video with free digital downloads. Same principle but 3D. So if I can change the video content from there. I think it’ll work. Fingers crossed.
Thanks again. Keep up the great content
Boz1070
PS
The cake video and mapping was on UA-cam. Ref. luma box👍
@@boz1070 I understand now what you were asking.. let me know if you end up going that route with the mapmap. Im curious how that works!
Will do. Wish me luck
@@boz1070hey did the project work out? What was the best software to use in the end? I’d like to do something similar
How long distance between projector and object?
Depends on your need
Remember to focus it correct
I found an older Optima projector with new bulb. Discontinued in 2009, does that matter?
It should be fine! I have an older projector around 2012 that works for my side yard
Perfect! Thanks for quick response
Which software did you use?
For the outliner, it's below in this link. For the video editing, Adobe after effects
fxprojections.com/outliner-software
Can I project use led project with 8k lumens and contract radio is 5k:1
Typically LED projectors aren't bright and the advertised lumens is not correct. A true 8,000 lumen projector usually starts at $5k+. The best way of knowing is type your projectors make and model in projectorcentral.com and see what it says.. if it doesn't pop up, then I wouldn't recommend it
حسن سلمانی 😢😢❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Does it have to be HDMI to HDMI or can it be VGA to HDMI
VGA should work as well 👍
Thank you
This video doesn't tell you how to projection map, it just tells you how to trace your house or projection object
Could a Chromebook be used or has to be Windows?
Chromebook would not work. Only windows and I have an option for Mac's as well
which software do you use?
For the video creation, Adobe After Effects. For the mapping part, this link below.
fxprojections.com/outliner-software
@@fxprojections9769 Thanks
Sir! Can you email me or share link of tutorial video for Ae video mapping?
What is the software again?
Adobe After Effects 👍
hiw to do wall colour if not white?!
The colors should still show up even if the house isn't white. My house before I painted it gray was tan and brown and it still worked well
Do you have IOS software
Is projection mapping and video mapping the same thing? Can you see your software to outline the surface for video mapping?
Yes it's the same thing.
softEX softs like a mouthorgan.. why?
software does not work with MAC
We have a serious spiritual problem going on - Dr Amy! You are projecting ! Better have someone examining you !
Music is a bit loud, and a bit distracting. It's high energy, making you sound even more monotone and bored
You must be a very nice guy in real life. He’s showing you how to do something for free and you’re still complaining.
@@juanlugofitness Thank you for your valuable feedback, unlike my own.
I'm all in for the hardwork part, but the required money stops me.
amazon needs to do something about these fake specs on this cheap chinese projectors. although i can usually tell its one of the scam ones just because the brand name is usually stupid. or sometimes there's no brand name at all. haha. I understand the concept of factory direct, but you'd think if the factory got desparate enough to sell directly to the consumer (headache) that they'd slap a name on it at least.
Lol is there a tutorial for broke people? 😂😂
The projector is the majority of the cost. You can pick up a used Epson 530 or 535w on Ebay for $200ish 👍
