Winter Lights: questions
Honest answers, including whether the videos exist yet.
Does this system do Winter Lights?
Yes. The whole street is doing lights. Here is how to do the window. The winter season is the biggest decoration market of the year, and almost nobody projects. A glowing animated window stands out on a street of static string lights.
Are the Winter Lights projection videos published yet?
Not yet. The build for Winter Lights is planned but the videos are not published, and we would rather leave a real page here than pretend otherwise. Falling snow, drifting light curtains, stained-glass style winter scenes, and gentle festive loops — designed to read from the pavement without looking like a screen. The gear list below is live now, so you can be set up and ready before the season starts.
What would a Winter Lights projection need?
A projector, white sheer curtain or screen material, cool-white and warm-white LED strings, and a timer. The same hardware covers every other holiday on the calendar, so nothing here is single-use.
Can I keep the same projector for other holidays?
Yes, and that is the point. The projector, screen surface, lighting and sound do not change between holidays — only the file you play does. Buy once, change the content.
How far ahead should I set up?
Winter Lights is 75 days away. Most people buy in the last two to three weeks, which is exactly when stock and shipping get tight. Setting up earlier also lets you test the image after dark well before the day.
Where do the videos come from?
Every loop is generated from a written prompt rather than bought as stock footage. Each build page publishes the exact prompt used, so you can generate your own version of any theme at a different scale, speed or colour.
