looking forward to see it on the big screen :w00t:

 

[Joe Vinson]

Can't speak for the content of the movie, but the footage looks damn good. Bravo, RED team!

 

[Ryo Rex]

Looks great, was this shot on B15, or 16?

 

[Jan Reiff]

the 1080p version looks fantastic.
colors, details - just great -
i would say: a typically red movie

Jim . you have the right to be Very Proud ..
What is that amazing .... .pictures

 

[Alexander Nikishin]

Looks awesome, bye bye film.

 

[Jan Reiff]

i liked "Zodiac" by fincher.
it was my favourite digital movie (talking about the image) , it was!

i did not like stuff like "apocalyptica" or "miami vice". too much video...

but this here:
i think this footage here is the best digital cinema stuff i´ve seen.
the rain-scene is amazing.
jim can be proud for sure, but we can also be happy to have ordered this camera bassam! :biggrin:

This looks fantastic
I watched the previous trailer of this that was posted in wmv and I was a bit worried about the crushed highlights and grain in that version
But now I see it was the wmv encoding causing it
The 480p QT version, which is the one I just watched, looks stunning.
What is the best way to encode red footage for web? wmv looked bad!!

 

[BASSAM MSSALATIE]

When it will supposed to be in theaters

 

[Sanjin Jukic]

Finally RED shows with this movie that is a leading tool in Digital Cinema acquisition today.

 

[Michele Gavazzeni]

apart from useless technicalities the audience will notice no difference between this and film.

 

[Omar Saad]

Looks great, was this shot on B15, or 16?

Good question.

I would definately say that the look appars to be right up there with Zodiac. I am very impressed.

 

[Pierce Cook]

Quicktime, I would assume? WMV always looks bad, in my experience, but perhaps I'm not patient enough with it. If you don't mind sacrificing size (and sometimes not even that), I would say Quicktime is the way to go?

Anyone else?

RE: The trailer - great images. I hope it's good (looks interesting) but I'll see it just to see how it looks if nothing else.

 

[John Tissavary]

Personally, I think any variant of mp4 (h.264, DiVX) is the best for now.

I use DiVX, as I get slightly better results with smaller final file sizes than QT h.264, and I don't have to jump through hoops to get the proper gamma. With DiVX I'm able to do 3-4 passes, and let me tell you, it makes quite a difference over just doing one or two.

John T.

Lil Red... don't think of it as losing your savings but as making an investment:biggrin:

I really don't want to start a 'Film is dead' debate all over again but this movie is going to be a really good argument for RED in particular. I am not referring to the storyline of course, just the acquisition format.

I would love to know from the makers of KNOWING whether they would shoot on film again? Can someone find out? JJ?

 

[Brook Willard]

If nobody told you it was shot on RED... you'd assume it was shot on film.

Nice one.

Next project is on RED... so I have heard.
