"Amazing Grace" by Yule This sixth video was shot, on an extremely windy evening, from a north-west viewpoint on the lawn of our neighbors across the street. This is "reality" videography unlike our first video which was a virtual rendition of "Amazing Grace" in the design, planning, and animation stages. Computer programming is a vital prerequisite for the lights-to-music synchronization of each tune in our Christmas Musical Light Show. The computerized set of instructions produced by the programmer (the BOSS) "tells" our 9 LOR Controllers when and where to turn 62,000+ LED lights "ON" or "OFF"! Thanx for watching! -- a few more Xmas videos to come! Please revisit our YouTube Channel (kimballnebritelites) by simply Goggling: kimball ne meyers christmas

"Winter Wonderland" by Alexia Phillips This video was shot from across the street and shows about half of the LEDs affixed to our house and front yard. Most of our non-traditional holiday tunes have a strong beat which make it relatively easy to sequence with songs or instrumentals. Our 62,000 LED lights are programmed and synchronized to turn on and off, dim, or shimmer by using a HP PC and a set of 9 controllers from the Light-O-Rama company. For each minute of animation synchronized to Holiday music, we spend at least two hours to sequence the 144 channels/circuits that control our plethora of multicolored LEDs. The upbeat, techno/remix, more up-to-date holiday music we select to play is a valuable part of our nighttime spectacle on Adams Street -- much to the delight or dismay of our neighbors and thousands of visitors! Thanks for watching! We hope our elaborate fireworks-like/lighting/musical displays bring you some holiday cheer and fond memories. Visit us again by Googling: kimball ne meyers christmas

Medley of "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" and "Here Comes Santa Claus" by the Ventures. This fourth video of our 2011 Christmas Musical Light Show gives you a central view of our LED props on the roof, front/west side of the house, and the front yard. This scene was videographed from just outside the front arbor and shows the following décor: roof stars and snowflakes, eave icicles, window and door-frame garlands, porch-rail garlands, a Light Storm Disk, an Animotion Disk, a Santa window cling/transparency, a door wreath, a seven-snowflake cascade, a LED-rope spiral tree, a small blow-molded Santa, a weeping willow, an Aerial Star Burst, five picture-window snowflakes, a "real" Xmas tree, and on the right, two of five "macro" trees. On the left foreground you can observe most of our 11-foot, 16-spiral tree, and you might also detect our large, inflatable turkey behind the spiraling tree. Yes! We are still in the transition stage between our celebrations of Harvest/Thanksgiving and Christmas/New Year! Thanks for watching our videos!
