  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

4K Delivery... get ready.

Jarred,

You guys should have a "made in the USA" page on the website with photos like these showing how Americans are making high end electronics in Southern California.

good idea.
 
Thanks Jarred
 
Jim/Jarred,

First 4K acquisiton...now 4K delivery and distribution?...VERY disruptive.

Talk about "double down"...incredible in the truest sense.

Thanks again.

P.S.
For tax purposes...this year or next for purchase...
 
Seriously, if you guys ever decide to go beyond projectors and into displays and make them here in the US, you'd more than likely succeed with your quality controls and aesthetics. I would certainly go for a 4K RED TV with full-array LED. A nice 60-80-inches would be perfect for the 4K home theater.
 
What is the least expensive 4K display or projector compatible with the RED Ray Player?

None you would or could buy here in the US. Next year is when the 4K product lines are released and there will be 4K displays in the popular "big screen" sizes as well as the "if you have to ask how much it cost then you probably can't afford it" sizes. Nobody is planning smaller 4K displays at this point.
 
Is there going to be any news on the projector as well since it has an onboard RedRay?
 
Perhaps everybody but me knows already the answer, but what is the perfect delivery format/specs for this projector?

Thanks.
 
Awesome! I going to buy one to go with my Epic-M when the price drops by half (wink)
 
No details till Nov. 30th :)
 
Holy shit. I'm off for one day and you post... Damn jarred this is nice! And we have a date! Yay! I love it when you let us have a sneak peek. Awesome pictures, even cooler labcoats ... I remember you guys thinking about new ones when you posted the EPIC assembly line pictures. Happy happy me... Now we need to get democracized screens to view the content. Really looking forward to who you partnered with... Awesome! What a week
 
Jarred:

OH. MY. GOD.

Dude. You guys did it!

You must have one of the most difficult jobs ever -- when we hit the nail on the head at times in the forum, but you are unable to confirm our speculation.

Like others have mentioned on this thread, I saw this coming back in '07/08. You simply needed to be paying attention, but you guys gave away enough hints to clue us in. This represents a real paradigm shift to the establishment. Wow. WOW. I'm so excited, I am truly at a loss for words. Truly. But I needed to tell you: THANK YOU! A million times over. Thank you.

I remember when RED fell victim to a bout of theft (read: corporate espionage); that incident totally reminded me of the case of Louis Le Prince. At one point, I was sincerely worried about you guys. The film industry is owned by some rather unsavory types (not that there aren't decent people mixed in -- many of them are right here -- some of my absolute dearest friendships were made on sets and at studios -- but the brokers -- hmm). I have experienced it firsthand, and those that know what I'm speaking of...well, they get it. Everyone else, feel free to chalk it up to conspiracy theory, and paranoia. HA!

The RED team has done the impossible. You've created an industry, and rattled another behemoth -- maybe even forcing a paradigm shift. It will be interesting to see how the establishment responds in years ahead -- I have a STRONG inkling, and I plan to be at the crest of that wave. :) Did I say, "Thank you?" Haha.

A large part of how things develop will be up to the artists wielding these tools. There are some bright filmmakers using the Internet like this already. One of my alums, Freddie Wong is a total kick ass, gun-toting, Internet action star. People like him will be the ones to look out for. Hell, I may even borrow my friend's apartment and make a movie at his place. Hahaha. Sorry. I couldn't help myself.

It's a given that talent and ability will be appropriated into the system wherever possible. The first "Paranormal Activity" that goes viral over a Netflix REDRAY player is going to have everyone shitting themselves. Hahaha. The artists that retain their copyrights, are going to be in new territory...each artist will soon have the ability to produce and distribute directly to the end user.

Now, I can hear someone's response already -- no, I don't think the traditional system is going away. It's just going to modify itself. It won't have any choice if the filmmakers are doing their jobs. And that simply will equate to opportunity.

Please don't EVER sell out to the highest bidder. Not that I think that will EVER happen -- And this is made especially true, given some of the things Jim has uttered about his experience with taking Oakley public and his thoughts on young talent that sells out too soon -- but MOSTLY on his feelings about YOU.

ALL YOU GUYS ARE SUPERSTARS. And thank you for the pictures of the assembly line...they're sweet. Keep 'em coming, please.

Eryc
