How much of "Wanted" was shot with RED?

[KStephens]

All RED shots were shot alongside a 35mm camera so the 35mm footage was used to keep the continuity. No reason to use RED footage and none of it was. BUT the RED footage was reported to look as good as the 35mm.

Yes, I understand that they were shot alongside each other. And if they got the two to match visually, why not use some Red footage? I know there was an issue with the frame ratio, but in his original reply, Jon Farhat mentioned that they were still trying to intercut with Red footage.

Are you certain nothing made it in? I haven't seen anything concrete on the subject, outside of this thread.

I'm curious about the aspect ratio, too. It seems to me that there must have been a way to match the 2:1 Red to the 16:9 S35. In any case, the project is still a very interesting and exciting collaboration.

Cheers

I sat down with 40 danish and swedish DPs some months ago, and wacthed a split screen test of red and Fuji 250T printet on premiere. It was in a small labcinema used for viewing releaseprints. The test was night ext and int
To be perfectly honest the only way we could tell the difference was that the Fuji looked quite grainy compared to the RED. This was build 12 if I recall correctly. So if you are going to print and expose well, nobody can tell the difference...
I am going to do a test for my next feature in a couple of weeks to convince my director to shoot RED: 2perf S35, 4perf S35 anamorphic, S16(1:2,35), RED 1:2,35 and RED ana. All DI printed through both ARRI laser and The cinevator.

Hej Jens... Tak for dit post. Det lyder da spændende! Held og lykke. Bliver det også Eterna 250? Jeg håber du kan dele resultaterne med os på Reduser.

Sounds good and I hope you can share the results here on Reduser.

Cheers
