That's funny...I thought 2 minutes of the eye was too long and repetitive so I shortened it to 50 seconds.  I wanted to be sure all the trick or treaters get to see the main hallowindow animation.  I really wish the hallowindow animation was much longer though as it's by far the best. 
That's cool how you setup the DVD (I'm just using a laptop, so playing the video files was much easier).

I am now obsessed with this.  When I drive around I notice houses along busy streets and say to myself how great certain windows would be for this.  I almost hit a deer the other day while looking around at peoples' windows LOL.

If I had it on my front porch, then I would probably agree with you, but it's on the second story overlooking the street (215 degree view of the entire street as it curves a bit around my house) and I'll be blasting the audio so that you'll easily be able to hear it as soon as it's partially in sight.  I figure I don't want to piss off the neighbors too much, so every ten minutes should do :)  Plus the location it's in really makes the eyeball look fantastic.

Wow, just saw this thread today and downloaded some of the video clips.  Paid the guy for the main hallowindow file - only cost about 3 british pounds - excellant value for money.

Did a little showing using my projector in the dining room onto the back yard window.  It has vertical blinds but played ok, left the door open so they could hear the sounds coming from my laptop.  Just at the end of the clip I stood in front of the projector light casting a shadow on the window....... they knew it was me, but all jumped out of their skins when I peered through the blinds wearing a werewold mask !!!!

Doesn't matter how old you get, doesn't get any better than seeing peoples faces when you show them something unusual then make them jump outta their skins.......  :hissy: grrrrrrrrr

chad, did you try projecting onto the window itself when it misted up, or another idea, motorcyclists i know put washing up liquid on their visors to help stop condensation so you can use the sheet.
i'm on a roll , ill go for three, windolene, window polish, get a hand mister and spray that on the window lightly, it'll turn the window white for the projection, i think if applied well that could really work

Ummon:
That's pretty neat. I don't like any of the 'scenes' because that turns it into a show and hence not scary. All the things that look like they're actually inside coming out to get you are cool.
