Greetings,

I have a great Red (MX Sensor) package for rent here in the LA area. I've assembled it with the budget-conscious and indie productions in mind; and I rent at very reasonable rates. No, you won't be getting a shiny new $12K tripod; but we're making movies here, not fashion statements. I have three lens sets available (late model lomo superspeeds = beautifully organic); (Red Pro Primes = perfect); (lomo roundfront anamorphics = cool) at different price points.

Must have production insurance or bring me on as DP/operator/DIT.

wow a whole lot of new equipment Morgan. this is danny I am in Ghana as we speak scouting locations for a feature I will call you as soon as i get back to LA.
 
Having just rented Morgan's package for a couple of music videos I can say that his red package is a pleasure to use. My original interest in his package was with the variety of lomo lenses he had on hand. They did not disappoint in providing the interesting lens artifacts I was after. The flares it produces are beautiful and the lenses themselves are sharp as a tact while providing a soft roundness to the image that some more modern lenses can reproduce.

Greetings,

Have just added the RPP lens set to the package...or you can choose the Lomo speeds: older, more organic lenses with nice flares.

Morgan is a great source of information, and his hard drive seems to work even when all others fail. Don't know why that is, but thank God he's around.

Mogan has a great package and is a pleasure to work with, the MX with the Pro Primes makes for a mighty fine picture.
