Working Scarlet/Epic Prototypes!

[Justin O'Neill]

Just in case any of you missed Jim's recon post this morning. There are now three working Scarlet/Epic prototypes!

"Blackie", "Lucy" and "Desi"...

The names are references to movies/shows shot at RED Studios Hollywood which was previously Ren-Mar Studios and before that Metro Pictures Back Lot #13. "Blackie" refers to the "Boston Blackie" films that were produced by Metro Pictures at the beginning of the 20th century and Lucy and Desi refer to "I Love Lucy" which was shot on the location while under the Ren-Mar name.

Congrats RED!

Blackie is the Scarlet?

 

[chrislancaster]

no one said scarlet it was a thread about Epic boot time

so scarlet is an assumption

95% of the S35 Scarlet and S35 Epic are the same so that is why I included Scarlet.

Jim said "....EPIC/Scarlet...."

In an effort to get the bad news out as soon as we have it, it looks like we will likely miss (at least) one proposed spec on EPIC/Scarlet. The engineers tell me that a 2 second startup time is now not possible given all the changes/additions to the program. Our current prototypes are starting up in 15 seconds and we think a reasonable target for production cameras is about 10 seconds.

He also said "....(at least) one proposed spec.....". Hopefully that won't include any of the important core features.

I would assume at least one of the three prototypes are the Fixed scarlet, as that model has do deal with different hardware than the Epic/Scarlet brains
