That would be a great help to beginners and folks who need to add to their show but don't have the time to create a ton.. Low realistic priced sequences = helping this hobby!
Ok cool, thanks for your feedback!
I would for sure purchase sequences. Regardless of how many elements you have in them, I think it’s a great starting base for new people to play around with them. Sometimes sequencing can be overwhelming for new people. Plus, it could help support your channel and or future endeavors..
That's what I was thinking too haha. A lot of people have said it sounds look a good idea, now I just have to figure out where and how to sell them 😅
@@How2Pixel Depending on your budget/goals/future plans, I host my own Wordpress sites on my NAS. The only thing I have to pay for is my domain name. I use free Wordpress and woo commerce as my store. It’s not the easiest to setup but after seeing your videos I think you would be able to figure it out. As far as a NAS goes any Synology NAS should work. Just some food for thought. For tutorial videos I would recommend Space Rex. Anyways if ya have any questions about it I’m also free to share what I have learned. Thanks for your videos! They are great and have helped out a lot of people!
Sorry for the late reply, but thank you for all the advice and tips!! I'll definitely take a look at that channel.
Sounds like a great idea, there is always a learning process even if the sequence is purchased and hey, you’ve done a Great job teaching my friend. We like your talents here in Lone Star Texas. Thank you for all your hard work and selfless efforts
I'm glad the videos have been helpful, thank you for the comment!
I just love boxes full of pixals! Awesome video! 👍👍
Hahaha thanks!
Thank you. The sequence thing would be good.
Ty for sharing
You can always change out props for a high density props. I am also working with a small yard and after this year it will be hard to add more.
True I didn't really think about that too much. Thanks for the advice!
I think that selling your sequences would be a nice idea. Especially for people beginning to start a light show, it might help them to look at a sequence and see how it is set up so that they could start programming their light shows to the way they like/need. I'm not sure, I know you have a facebook account. But do you have a website? I think it would be a good idea if you tried to make a website where you could put your sequences and some light show information -in case people don't have facebook/CZcams- and links and stuff like that. Also I'm not really sure about this because I don't have a raspberry pi, but there's an fpp. Plug in where people can pick a song to see, which you could do if you want after the main light shows done and there's still a couple days till you take the lights down. It's just an idea.
Looking forward to your next video!
I've thought about making a website before, but I don't really know where to start, I'd have to do some research. For now I found this pretty cool website xlightsseq.com and it's a place where everyone can sell and buy sequences. It seems like the best way for me at least to sell them for now without having to worry about huge fees from other places, and also not have to make a website for now. But down the road that does seem like a good idea and I may do that!
For your idea about the FPP plugin, are you talking about remote falcon? I've actually used it once before I think in 2021 and I made a tutorial about it. It worked pretty well, but the problem now is it's hard to use it with the way I make my sequences. I don't have separate sequences for the songs anymore, I usually put 2 or 3 songs in one sequence so they fade into each other and there's no pause between them. This was also hard because I've had to go and separate each sequence to get ready to sell them. So if I were to use Remote Falcon again, it could only play groups of songs, not just individual ones. But thank you for the idea though! Maybe one year I'll have just a weekend where I run individual sequences and remote falcon.
I would probably buy your sequences just to see how you do the peace stakes. Then I guess I would have to buy peace stakes :)
Hahaha peace stakes are awesome! Everyone needs them 😉
Your time that you put into developing your sequences has value, both to you and others. Don't feel bad about charging for that. Your price sounds more than reasonable.
I have a side question for you but don't want to post it in the comments. Is DM through Facebook the best way to contact you directly?
Yes, you can either message me there or email me at Bridgeportsbrightestlights@gmail.com, whichever is better for you!
Hello. I'm from Romania and I'm.....very beginner. I have no experience, I have never done a light show. Maybe this year. I have an f16v5, ready to run, an SRx4v4 and a raspberrypi 5. I would also like to buy sequences from you, but I don't know how to proceed for the purchase. I would be happy if you could tell me how to proceed for the purchase. Congratulations for everything. I write with google translate.
Hi there, welcome to the light show community! Right now I don't have the sequences for sale yet, I'm still working on packaging up all the files and finding where to sell them. I'm hoping to have them for sale in a few weeks, and I'll make sure to let everyone know when they're for sale and where to get them!
@@How2Pixel OK!
Sell away!
