Quartet Sequence - The Movie Melody by Straight No Chaser


Here is a quartet sequence for "The Movie Melody" by Straight No Chaser. This was originally done with xLights then brought into LOR. I have included the xLights files, and the graphics I used can be downloaded for free.

These is a starter sequence for a quartet. If you have other elements, you will need to sequence those parts yourself, but this will save you a lot of time for the main part, as I have done the vocals.

Yes, I am selling these files, as it took a significant amount of time to create and sequence. I am willing to share some of my content, but not when I have put as much work into it as I have, with the singing character parts.

Quartet in xLights

Create a new model in xLights, and set it for Custom, Single Color White, with a size of 19x21. Download the CSV file below. Open it in notepad, select all, copy, then paste the text into the top left of the xLights model you just created. It should look like the screenshot below. Once that is done, the Names and Faces buttons will need to be used to complete the setup of the character.
These are the names of each strand of lights on the singing character. These names will be used for the definitions of the character.

Here is the important link to the Papagayo within xLights. You have to tell the software what channels to turn on for the specific phenom. These are the ones I use. I feel that using the middle lip on the HolidayCoro Trees look more happy when resting, and makes the mouth movements flow better.
