Hi there.
I have seen a few videos where people have lit up large Christmas presents on their lawn (which I’m assuming is a transparent plastic).

Is there a large addressable LED which would be suitable for something like this?

Flood lights can be effective for this type of effect. Some just put a bunch of standard pixels inside and make them act as one pixel inside xLights

Mine (Boscoyo chromaglow, they're pretty common) have a bunch of LED inside, not just one. But yeah, if you want a lot of light from a small number of channels, look at WS2811 floods. Or DMX PARs or floods.

IF you are looking for large pixels search on carnival, fairground or cabochon pixels. These are common terms for multi-led pixels. Not likely as bright as a floodlight but they are much larger than a 12mm pixel.
