Been contemplating building a moon box to go along with our star drop. I did a search but didnt see any threads on them.
Was thinking of printing a moon image on clear acetate (which I already have) 42" wide and sandwich between two sheets of plexi. Placing the whole thing in a shallow round custom box. I found Elation LED tape light and a controller (with DMX).
Has anyone done one of these? I have had one from a set rental company before as part of a show (they no longer have it), but I think it had incandescent lamps inside.
Would LED tape on the inside rim (aiming to the center) be enough light? Should I do RGB to do color mixing? maybe a blue moon or amber or..
Any thoughts before I dive into this project...
Thanks!
