This is the third pinball video we've done for Jersey Jack. We did the Hobbit trailer and we did the Dialed In trailer. And when Eric and the team came to us and said, hey, our next machine is Guns N' Roses, we were like, this is going to be sick. We were counting down the days until the game arrived. And when it did and we opened it, man, we were blown away. This game is absolutely gorgeous. Zoomed with Eric and Zoomed with Jack, Brett, JP, everybody. And we kind of decided on, hey, if this game is about a concert, let's throw the first ever pinball concert. Let's have LED walls and backgrounds. Let's have a rotating turntable. Let's have lights going crazy. Let's have pyro. They gave us the official concert animations they played at actual Guns N' Roses concerts. And that's what we put on the LED wall. Nick put together this incredible synced video at different moments in the trailer. There's different things going on in the LED backgrounds. You watch a lot of concert videos, you always see that sweeping jib. We thought, hey, you know, this video needs this big 18-foot sweeping jib to just kind of give you unrestricted access. One of my favorite parts about shooting pinball is the playfield itself. Getting those cool close-up moments, getting all that pinball action. We at Element Studio are super excited about this video. Our hope is that this video does justice to what this game's all about. What Eric, Slash, and the team have done is absolutely phenomenal. And it's going to rock the pinball world. Ha!
