Halloween Tribute to Haunted Mansion

hahah the bicycle horn

[MrWARIOBARTOKPARCOXD]

Canberra as the order of the heads?

[LongTimeListener]

@MrWARIOBARTOKPARCOXD Can you change the order of the heads? Yes, the video was made from three separate ones and merged into one. So it is possible to change the ordering.

¿Puedes cambiar el orden de los bustos? Sí, el video fue hecho de tres juegos independientes y se fusionaron en uno solo. De modo que es posible cambiar el orden.

@LongTimeListener

what program did you use?

Psss.. Those singing busts suck!

No offense bud, but you can actually

put some effort in there, i'm making

them with epoxy resin, i then project

the face from the inside and i light up

the entire bust from the inside. I will

also add a piano roll system that will

move their heads! Now that's effort.

[LongTimeListener]

@Ruttie2 Well, then I look forward to seeing your video when you are done. Good luck with the effort.

[Ruttie2]

@LongTimeListener Thank you sir,

although it could take a while, i say

a 2 years or so, but i'm working on it!

I hope you'll stay interested till' then :)

[YellowTurtle13]

How did you do the knocking door?

[LongTimeListener]

@YellowTurtle13 It was actually very simple. Invisible thread going up to a motor mounted on the ceiling.

[rustbucket3000]

COOL!!!

[CHASCO4]

Awesome !!!

[disfreaky]

how big is your garage thats a lot of stuff

[LongTimeListener]

Not really that big. The area this was in is about 20' x 20'. So 400 sq ft. The layout was basically a corridor that twisting back on itself (like a maze). So this allowed for a lot of stuff to be packed into a small space.

Manifique! ^^

[dingodile555]

Amazing. Well done.

[ultraloadedkiller]

you did awesome

[joelandmelody4ever]

You did a wonderful job.

[M1CK3Yanimation]

how did u make the candle float awesome to

[LongTimeListener]

@M1CK3Yanimation I hired a ghost to hold it for the day.

Or maybe I used thin wires. I can't remember. :-)

[M1CK3Yanimation]

were did u get all this stuff

[LongTimeListener]

From eBay, Michael's, Disney and some stuff I made.

[mjlynn]

This is so cool. My friends and I are obsessed with the Haunted Mansion and we've always wanted to make our own for Halloween. You did an awesome job with all this.

[chaosgone]

That's great! You did a good job on your haunted house.

[CORNSiLK]

That was absolutely brilliant, a production worthy of an Imagineer!

[clubpenguin1234]

What projector did you use for the singing busts? Are there some that are REALLY cheap?

[LongTimeListener]

I borrowed mine. I've seen projectors for $400. But that's still too expensive for me. BTW, the little Leota was done with an MP3 video player and a lens. Total cost about $40 (including player and lens).

[utubeVanillaBoy]

what do you mean a lens?

[LongTimeListener]

just a small 3" piece of convex glass (from Edmund Scientific).

[utubeVanillaBoy]

your so confusing gordon!!! lol

[PirateBob59]

Great job !

Can you tell me where I can find the video source

for your little Madam Leota ?

Thanks

[althegamefreak]

very cool!

[hairypawter]

Awesome! i really loved your letoa spirit ball! how did you get the bust video loop? i loved how you recreated everything! amazing job!

[mdmleotafan]

where did you find the candelabra? I've been looking everywhere for one like that!

Great stuff Gordon! I wish I could have seen it in person.

[LongTimeListener]

I got it on eBay a few months ago. It's perfect, but it is quite heavy.
