Can you blow up a RED still and frame it? And does it look good?

[Torrey Loomis]

Answer: yes and yes.

We were looking for some art-type stuff to put on the walls around the new studio and I've seen some stunning frames that would be great blown up.

The question I had was this: could you blow up a RED still and have it look good on the wall?

I used an image from a Palo Duro roundup shoot by Jeffrey Lamont Brown, applied some special sauce, and sent it out to CanvasPop for a print and framing.

The result is attached...and we will be getting many more of these.

The co-founder of CanvasPop said "I just wanted to complement the image you sent over to us….. Not sure what camera you used to obtain that image, but the end result really blew us away….."

great image. It's hard not to get beautiful stuff in Palo Duro Canyon, man.
I've got many memories from there as a young man.
Well, video, anyway. Without that, I wouldn't remember a dang thang.

sweet.

CanvasPop looks pretty awesome.

 

[Andrew Rieger]

can you post a better pic of the resolution of the canvas print? I am considering doing this myself.

Affirmative--give me a little time and I'll take a better shot.

That looks like a beautiful photo.

It stopped me in my tracks when I saw the trailer that JLB shot. His shooting is awesome, but that frame was a total standout.

You can see some of his other work here:

Nice shot Torrey, it feels like I'm looking out a window.

I did this too on a Ducati shoot I had over a year ago. Build 16! We printed two versions, one to fit my poster frame and another that is 6ft long by 4ft tall. It looks INCREDIBLE. Can't even see the noise. Here's a pic of the smaller frame.

 

[Albert Armes]

Impressive - especially when you hear that resolution isn't important. Of course it's important. How can it not be?

Is a lot of the photography on his website taken from Red? There was a lot of 2:1 aspect stuff...

Either way, really great work.

ACL,

From what I know, JLB is a still shooter making his way over to directing motion content.
