Circus Circus - Reno, NV

There's gold in them thar hills! Or at least in the Circus Circus hotel stage show. Anchoring the search for treasure is the Silver Baron character, backed by a 125-foot mining structure. This is an excellent example of Advanced Animations' capabilities with regard to creating animated setwork, which, in this case, is enormous in scale. A number of the structure's parts move, including a reciprocating arm, flywheel, bellows, and various belts and pulleys.
