I was recently asked by a local company called Home Leisure Direct to do a series of pinball videos, focusing primarily on how to play. The idea was to start with the absolute basics and then work up to more complex skills of how to play pinball, culminating in a tutorial of how I would play Star Trek.

It was good fun shooting the smallish videos and the company do genuinely seem interested in promoting pinball.

The series should look like this

Interview
Anatomy
Accuracy
Cradling/Trapping
Bounce pass
Post pass
Tip pass
Drop catch
Live catch
Death save
Nudging
Rules/Strategy
Tutorial

The first 4 short videos are up already, which I will post. As the other videos in the series are made available I will add them to this thread. Let me know what you think.

Cheers, Craig

very well done and cant wait to see the series. then you need to do game play for about 100 machines and we will all be happy! lol

one thing: as these initial vids are obviously for the real beginner....make it clear that the glass is typically on the game (except of course when trying to make it to valinor!).

great quality of sound and video, easy to understand and overall a great production. give me more!

Thanks, much appreciated. And thanks for the feedback re the glass, that's a good point

Nice job. Good to see pinball skills out there for more people to find in case they didn't or don't know of pinball 101.
