Technology, The Future of Television & The Making of Banshee (HBO/Cinemax).

How the Emmy Award-Winning Director reduced the production costs
by doing most of his work on his iPad, using Google Street View & other technologies.

3 episodes of Banshee shot on RED SCARLET.

You shot 1080p with the Scarlet?

We shot 4k on the Scarlet, or 2k on the Scarlet. I can't remember.
I have to check, but I think we were shooting at least 2k.

...Proof Dp's don't have to wonder about the job being made obsolete.
 
Episodes two, four and five were shot on Scarlet, before switching back to Alexa for the rest of the season (which they felt more comfortable on).

One step forward, two steps back (not really)... It'll be interesting to see if the Scarlet episodes stand out at all (for better or worse), and I'm definitely curious as to what they told RED they'd like to see in the future.

I could probably name them without even being involved. My guess is they would have had some of the same feedback if Epic was involved. What works for some (Francis Kenny for instance) won't work for everyone. Each show brings with it different aesthetics, technical challenges, workflows, etc. I suppose the good news here is that they gave both camera systems a shot and settled on the one that worked best for them.
