Why watch Slash in 2 dimensions when you can see him in 3D? You now can! Gibson reports: Slash's first video from his debut solo album, Slash, which was released in April, is now available in 3D. "By the Sword" features vocals from Andrew Stockdale of Wolfmother and ferocious guitar from the Chapeaued Shredder. The 3D conversion was produced by PassmoreLab. In a press statement, Slash said, "From Andrew's vocals, to Vance directing me again, to PassmoreLab doing the 3D, it has been a killer experience and I am thrilled with it."
Vance Burberry, director of the video has worked with Slash since his Guns N' Roses days, where he was director of photography on the band's "Sweet Child o' Mine," "Paradise City" and "Welcome to the Jungle" rock videos. "On this one, we created a kind of post-apocalyptic future, where people are starved for music," Burberry said. "We end up underground in this dark, deserted power plant bunker, where Slash and the band are mesmerizing an audience. When I found out that we were doing the conversion with PassmoreLab, I thought that environment was perfect for 3D." - more on this story
