The idea and tech are really cool but the execution is.... very six flags I'll give it that
Yeah you still only see yourself at one point in the ride combined with pre-made pov footage so in that respect it's not that much better than an on-ride photo imo.
@@drpenguin57So, is it good enough...?
@@nesmanmain0001 depends on how much they charge for it I guess. Some of the rides getting this upgrade haven't had working on-ride photos at all in several years from what i've heard so having this will be nice for those rides especially.
@@drpenguin57 I was making a joke. Lol, the guy at the end kept asking if it was good enough
Like you said I love the system but the editing is not what it should be. It should be more focused on the rider than some kind of pre recorded ahots
Never has someone been MORE BUSTED for having their phone out on a coaster 🤣
I love that they’re inviting you to stuff like this! Cool behind the scene!
i think it’s cool to have the option of this video but i don’t think it’s much better then a normal on ride photo
hello lol
I instantly thought about Rip Ride Rockit at Universal. They have a similar video system, but you get a little more out of it. Assuming they even offer it still. I haven't been in years.
@@Galistia They do. I almost bought it 😂
@@dee11572 I thought it was really cool when I first saw it. Never had the extra funds for it, though lol.
i'm so psyched for any update to the on-ride cameras! 9/10 photo booths at SFMM are abandoned, and then one of the 2 cameras on X2 is covered in dirt and probably hasn't been cleaned in 15 years. hope this goes on almost every ride!
I'm hoping Cedar Point does something too. They keep trying to sell that photo pass to people but even the photos either seem to be down at the time or really poor quality on at least 50% of the rides with the cameras.
That's great. I like how I was wondering if they were going to incorporate this across the chain and my immediate thought was Viper since that photo booth is abandoned. I come back to find that the example they're using... is Viper. I'm psychic.
It’s seems like something that will be fun. I’d love to see the videos more themed to the ride that you’re on then a general six flags theme. Like Superman flying besides the train or something like that.
can’t wait to not pay and just screen record lol
Marshall seems pretty cool but there's one thing some of us are wondering...
Is he wearing Vessis?
no :(
This is cool and all but I have 2 small complaints
1. The photos look kind of generic now, like no logos for the ride. Shouldn’t the onboard video be like Superman themed? And the frames for the photos should also have like ride branding and stats
2. With great adventures strict no loose article policy, how would this even work? You’d have to run from the exit ramp to the lockers, grab your phone, run BACK to the Photo Booth, and hope the qr didn’t go away. Seems a bit counter intuitive
Disney already done and did it better with slow mo and ride theme logo specific. This is just generic park logo and not enough screen time ofthe persons.
My favorite coaster pic ever is of Wonder Woman at SFFT because the employee asked me if I wanted the logo on or off to which I quickly said “OFF!”. The photo is now framed and in my living room. It would have never made the cut if it had an obnoxious logo on it like my Fury 325 photo.
I would think your QR code would be there for quite a bit.
Great video Ryan, this is an awesome change! It’s been so long since they had photos even available for rides like Superman and Medusa/Bizarro so I think this is fantastic
Maybe it's because I stopped riding most roller coaster in the early 2000s (not by choice; just broke college kid) I still like the OG family photos. (Our family still has ours from 2002 on rockin roller coaster at MGM) but I do think having videos to share is a game changer seeing as how no one buys these any longer.
This is awesome that the technology keeps on growing and getting better and better.
Also that’s amazing you got invited for that ordeal. Congrats dude
The demonstration they give seemed actually really cool. I hope what they end up selling is more like that with the super super slow mo and optional personalized effects.
This is awesome to see! The hassle of going to the counter, even for digital photo's strayed me away from ever picking up on ride photos. This QR code thing is the way!
this is really cool tech! absolutely love this!
Im impressed for Sixflags. Something id expect to see from Cedar Fair
I mean, they had it on Woodstock Express of all things at Cedar Point some time in the early 2000's. They actually burned it on a DVD.
Pretty cool! Glad we can still get A picture! 🤘
This very cool! Be cool too if they gave you a POV of the ride as well, so people quit getting in trouble for recording on rides. Cedar Fair needs this!!
I like to think they saw your Problematic Coasters video on Ultimate Flight and said “Is the train complicated enough? Yes. But we can do better.”
Glad they finally have on ride video. I've been wanting this 15 years ago. Will stop people from trying to film on the ride and then dropping their phones lol Now people can share these clips on social media. Free advertising for six flags.
Six Flags coming through with some innovation! We love to see it!
A very natural progression from the traditional on-ride photo. Now you can get neat off-ride video clips without having someone having to be off ride to capture it. Neat stuff.
I wanna see these things on log rides. Like in the 90's when you and your friends went on Splash Mountain just to make silly poses for the camera, but half of you closed your eyes because of the flash.
I think it should use multiple cameras a different sections. This isn’t much different than an on ride photo but I like the direction it’s going.
this is pretty cool! glad they reached out to you to share this
Thanks for coming out Ryan!
It's not good enough, but..... Actually really think this is a nice step. Good for that company and good for the park.
That’s a new level of on ride photos and videos awesome!!
This is super cool, definitely looking to see how far this tech goes... not looking forward to everyone and their mom posting their samey vids on socials tho. I hope they take the "it's not good enough, we can do better" mantra and keep going with it.
Mang is the undisputed king of "but wait, there's more"
Interesting concept, looks cool and I definitely like how easy it seems to use though the end product still looks a little rough around the edges. The actual final product looked a lot worse than the BTS promo that they were showing off in the gift shop. Also I can totally see this tech being used to enforce no cell phone policies on rides in the future, not necessarily a bad thing but something to consider.
Very six flags. I can take that either way.
Excellent video. Gray haired gentleman sold it really well.
Now is this the service that will be rolling out to all Six Flags parks in the future? Definitely a cool new initiative way for this.
Great content and insights. Many thanks.
This looks like a huge improvement
They can use these for future commercials
Reminds me of the video experience on Batman a few years ago. I remember my video. I didn't get it (should have!), but I was in a Green Lantern T-shirt, my eyes closed, singing what I could remember of Seal's Kiss from a Rose to myself. Hilarious. Can't wait to try this out.
I like that at least this coaster is receiving the Pomvom treatment! I hope that more parks will add it to their rides! It’s a fabulous idea to have even the gen-x’r in me happy!😊
this is insane hope it gets widely adopted everywhere
Finally, El Toro Ryan in a marshall video
I think this is a really cool idea & i can see many people buying this when they wouldn't buy a physical photo, especially younger people. I think that there's a little room for improvement in the execution, such as individualizing the logos and graphics a little more to the specific ride & using multiple cameras along the course (why stop at just capturing 1 point in the ride?), but its overall a pretty solid innovation imo
This is like the next gen version on ride photos, you can tell this took a lot of work to make this all happen, because they have to do this for every ride essentially. I could see other parks possibly getting this in the future. Nice in depth video of what this actually is.
Funniest part is the fact they want you to scan with your phone that they make you put in a locker before you get on line
Let's get the ops improved first before we do this for the coasters haha
This reminds me much like Tron, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and Tower of Terror which I thought was pretty cool!
It’s my man Bruno
nah but Fr this new system is super sick I can’t wait to use it
truly one of the innovations of all time
The AI editing is really cool. Videos can be customized or enhanced with software, all with the same camera hardware.
I remember how cool I thought the Batman onride video system was many years ago, this is pretty awesome!
That’s pretty cool, I just hope they can still give me a slip some my phone is always in a locker
This is just like YourDay that Alton Towers debuted in 2007 haha
He said "we are shifting the whole industry from BlockBuster to NetFlix" 😂😂😂😂
Lots of potential, hopefully they keep refining it
Finally a Great Adventure W
This on ka would be crazy
ELTORORYAN POSTEDDD
Cool idea i would love both video and prints. At cedar fair they have keychains which collect and love the way I can download the photos to my phone. I tink the actual photos are funny because they can come out with funny faces and me and my friends make fun of each other
that looks awesome I hope they'll add a qr code camre to the six flags app down the line all and all this is great to see
Bruh. My Superman shift started at 1 that day. Would have loved to meet you Ryan. Anyway, great video!
Ahh just missed you! Hopefully next time! And thank you!
Did they say how much they cost? And is this system coming to other Six Flags parks as well as other parks by other companies?
It looks like planet coaster
So if my partner is yelling "s**t s**t s**t" as he sometimes does, this could capture it. Cool deal 😂
It looks really cool! But I'm curious, how does it work at night or in not so great weather?
I honestly think that this new tech is gonna make it easier to steal the vid. Like I think that you can just screen record, and save the vid without paying the paywall. Something that might make it better is if they added a massive watermark on it to kind of try and deter something like that happening. Otherwise, its a cool idea, I won't lie
Pretty cool but no option for 16x9?
Disney has been doing this for a while, now I'm surprised no one else has.
Glad to see Six Flags make the investment.
Wish I had this last summer! This is awesome! But what does it cost?
Currently on sale for $25 for unlimited access till the end of 2024.
Can't wait to scan the QR code after getting off El Toro!
I’d probably try this out I wish it didn’t have the unnecessary Six Flags logo after it though
Meanwhile every ride photo at SFNE is closed, and can't you just screen record or screenshot the photos/ videos?
Disney already have this but ride specific logo and not generic park logo.
This is really cool! The on-ride photos needed an update. Gotta say, this is better executed than I expected! The Six Flags App might have some purpose now. Please don’t nickel and dime us Six Flags 😢. Just include it with my Season Pass and we’re good 🤝 😊 - it’s environmentally friendly.
I guess one of the purposes is to discourage people from taking videos on their phones.
I appreciate the effort going into this, but it basically looks like a Six Flags commercial with a second or two of motion capture shots of you of you spliced in. Honestly, I think I would sooner pay for a still photo than this. Now, if you got what essentially was a full-ride reaction video, that would be really cool. This? It's a start.
And they really missed out by not having edited in Mr. Six dancing on top of the pretzel loop.
From what I understand, it looks like the video will be customizable, like you can choose different effects/visuals to be applied and such.
Can they just let us create our own videos? 😵💫 This format is almost impossible to re-purpose into anything original. I just want to be able to share the full park experience with my audience 😭On the flip-side, I can see how this would be a nice addition for non-creators tho.
Thank you for warning us about this so-called upgrade. Most of the video footage looks pre-captured and then they just insert a little bit of your personal motion in it. All the marketing Babel that the guy from the company used was very telling. My overall reaction to it is simply MEH.
I mean, it looks "pre captured" because the camera is in the exact same place doing the exact same things every time. However, it's pretty clear that it's actual video and not just them superimposing people's faces onto it or something.
The tech to do stuff like this with the video effects and stuff has been around for a long time, they're just taking various existing technologies and combining them for a novel purpose.
@@Tahngarthor The POV and drone footage is stock footage that they're editing your video in to.
My question is will they have drone and POV footage in different weather conditions and different times of day? The video hits a little different if you overlay full bright sun footage over a clearly nighttime clip.
Be better if they had multiple camera locations tbh
Maybe I'm not the target demographic for this, but on-ride photos never appealed and this really doesn't either. Maybe with some tweaks the video could be more appealing. Right now it just feels like the tail end of a Six Flags Comercial.
you know dumb things are going to happen and everybody on that ride will get that video and it'll go viral. I'm here for the future drama
One of the big problems for loss of revenue was that people are just able to take pictures of their picture. How does placing the QR code on the screen discourage that kind of "cheating" behavior?
Can you not screenshot the photos on your phone, though?
The only downside about this is that you can’t bring your phone on the ride so you can’t scan the QR code immediately after the ride.
Miss the vlogs bro! Thank you 🤘🏻
meanwhile my six flags park has shuttered the on-ride photo stands because they can't even staff the rides.
I'd rather just get a still image 🤷🏻♀️
You can still get that
How much will this experience cost ???
How are we supposed to scan the QR code when you force everyone to lock up their phones and other loose articles on certain ride?
You can get your phone then do it that’s a dumb question
Does this mean that we will finally get on-ride lockers to keep our phones in?
Yeah, like on wildcat‘s revenge. You can get your phone out of the locker & the photo booth is right there.
Someone mention the cost
I thought your not allowed to have phones on rides?
I don’t like it. I would absolutely love it if we had this as well as the option to buy the picture the old way. There just wasn’t anything wrong with the old way of doing it. The whole point of buying it was kind of to have a physical photo and a memory to take home, not to have a file on your phone.
Do you have insight on what they do with the footage nobody buys? I don’t like the idea of video being created and handled in terms of individual privacy or possibly identity fraud. So thought I’d ask if either you or the others have that kind of knowledge. I forget which ride shoots unflattering footage pretty much up your shorts and then what they do with that ghastly footage; perhaps it was verbolten or something at Disney.
unlikely that they keep it, the data size of hundreds of cycles every day * the number of cars on each train would get unmanagable. Regardless, it isn't significantly more of a risk than existing on-ride photos are.
How about just mount a go pro to the front of the trains and post the videos online daily 🤷♂️
Awesome, inquire about cleaning 🧼 up the dirty restraints. Definitely wash your hands after touching that.
I think that's worn-down paint/surface rather than crud.
So Six Flags enforces that our pockets be empty and that you have no phones with you. How does this make sense?
Also, focus on having hand sanitizer available still. Sanitizer is non-existent at Six Flags Great Adventure.
@sixflags
The tech is cool but that editing is nauseating. Something a little bit more low-key would be nice.
I experienced this 2 days ago on Full Throttle at Six Flags Magic Mountain. It was my first time at SFMM and it was good! I was at the station of Goliath and saw the qr code to scan, decided to scan it and I was very surprised that they had a onride video of ME on the coaster. ON MY PHONE!
I guess the first hint of this new tech was when I was on my 27th visit to SFOG the camera wasn't there on the final airtime hill on Goliath.
At Magic Mountain I was wondering why the camera's flash wasn't a flash instead just glaring at me. This is a really good upgrade to the original many photos of the 80s (didn't know that btw).
PS: Now I have free on-ride photos & videos! 😃
I think its a big step up from nothing.
