Now your talking!

That's a lot of 4k to go through, any details about the project and how to deal with 10-20TB per day of data?

Mitch Gross · 04-06-2009, 12:21 PM

pictures don't show up.

An amazing production from all involved. John and the boys from SIM made this otherwise chaotic logistical nightmare as smooth as butter on a biscuit.
Very impressive on every level.

We did not do the on site data management...we were a little busy with the cameras and monitoring...but if I remember correctly, 26 imacs into a raid array......

T-dot in tha house.

I have been a part of many a crazy shoot but this one takes the cake. I did the video assist on this one and thanks to fibre john we had all 57 cameras live pictures pumped into my VA system, recorded and playing back to 5 big plasmas for the director in a hotel suite. Sure was a lot of fun to be a part of this one.

Chris Vincze and his boys from the UK ran the data with a room full of iMacs. Eveyone on this job rocked the house and the near impossible was pulled off. We had sean up from red on the scene which was nice.

All in all, good times. And the reds were out in the cold for six days straight working really well.

We cannot list product, Director or DOP until the spot airs. However, technically we can tell and show what we did.

I think,other than at RED, this would be the largest gathering of RED cameras in the world......
