I Don’t know if it’s real or fake but it sure is a cool vid 🙂

what i have read though is the guy used his pc and some profesional lighting software to do it.

I came to the conclusion that he must have been in the lighting industry too paul. The average joe blow would not have the where-with-all to do something like this.

As far as the grass moving Nik, I think you’ll find it is probably a resolution thing.

If it is a fake, it is a damn good one.

Thanks Nik, I have clicked the link a few times in the last few days and had no problems. Must be a scottish thing 😮 😛

I have clicked the link again and included the explaination here instead :

A video clip shows home Christmas lights synchronized to flash in time to a musical score, in this case Trans-Siberian Orchestra’s “Wizard in Winter” (from The Lost Christmas Eve album).

This display was the work of Carson Williams of Mason, Ohio, who spent about three hours sequencing the 88 Light-O-Rama channels that control the 16,000 Christmas lights in his 2004 holiday lighting spectacular. The musical accompaniment is broadcast over a low-power radio station so that it is only audible to visitors tuned in to the correct frquency and doesn’t disturb the neighbors.

The rough quality of the video has led some viewers to believe it was put together in stop-action form from still photographs, but that is an artifact of the high compression used in the clip circulated via e-mail.

Hope that helps. Source is snopes.com and search for ‘christmas lights’

They also have on there the program used to do the effects and the raw files, so if you read the how to, you can also set it up on your pc.

When i have time i’m going to try that.
Musical LED signage, i’m sure someone can do it 🙂
