  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

M-X REEL R3D's

M-X_Reel_fun02.jpg

Having fun with grading R3Ds of R1-M-X reel in 4K realtime on Oscar's Sunday, March 7, 2010 in my home studio (shot on Canon 7D, ISO 1600, shutter 1/60, lens Nikon 17-35mm zoom @ f/2.8 on 17mm).

Thank you Jarred.

Which monitor are using there (look like it say HP on the top)
and is that a 23" ACD?
 
I have total newbie question about these samples. Forgive my ignorace. I downloaded them mainly to play with RedCine-X and FCP workflow -- my first time messing with R3D files.

I'm trying to export from RedCine-X to Quicktime, but I can't get the crop right. The R3D originals seem to be coropped to 2.40:1 but every export setting I tried to get them to a 16:9 file, squeezes them from the side into the frame. What would be the proper setting in RedCine to get a letterboxed image in a 16:9 file?

Thanks for making them available!

what you can not forget everyone is that we shot this with a prototype camera with a very early build. the build changed 10+ times from 1/10 to 1/16 and has changed many times since. moreover, we used very very little light in these shots. so dissecting these shots is not really productive because you will never be able to shoot with that build again, nor would you want to.

i can tell you that the quality of the footage we are getting now with the new builds is far superior to what we did 60 days ago...rock on RED...

and glad everyone is enjoying the hard work that so many put in for free...

im going to tidy up this thread a little.. people kinda missed the point half way through.

ACD/Apple Cinema Display 30" and HP LP2480zx DreamColor 24"

driven by old MacPro 3 GHZ, NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT, max DRAM 32 GB, REDRocket card,

AJA Kona 3, AJA Hi5 3G HDSDI to HDMI mini converter, Wave console,...
 
I can't see the glorious stuff in 4K unfortunately, I have a Mac Pro (early 2009) Octo 2.26GHz, 8GB RAM, with the Radeon HD 4870 (best card available at the time or purchase) and RED-Cine X gives me this error when setting the proxy on full:

"Your graphics card does not support image dimensions of this size."

With the Radeon HD 4870?
Does anybody else have the same card and not get the message?

The ATI cards don't support greater than 4k textures.
We'll have a workaround for that in the future.
Newer Nvidia cards support 8k textures.
 
Damn, that's unfortunate, but only for the mean-time. Thanks for working on a workaround!

I just found the expand button on the Detail window though, my pixel-per-pixel voyeur needs can still peer through the 295x168 keyhole ;)
 
Haha I had a bit of fun today and made this. You'll have to download it because I didn't want to post it on Vimeo or Youtube and mislead people that it's my footage. Thanks for the r3d-footage RED-team and the people who shot it!

Also, cgi models are not mine either... just did the placing/lighting/compositing and smoke.

P.S. it's not perfect nor physically correct nor real etc... just having fun with this sexy shot :D
 
Has anyone tried this material in Color 1.5 ?

Since I got the files yesterday, I've been trying to work it on FCP 7 or Color 1.5 but there´s no way the applications read it the r3d, nor via log and transfer or directly on Color. I've the latest codec and red quicktime drive, but I think I'm missing something. Any help?

P.S: RedCine build 158 handles the files flawlessly and with FLUT Control.

We need a new QT component before they will work in FCP, but if you have installed the new Color plugin from here Color should read the R3Ds.

Red is great for VFX work and the new M-X sensor looks to be superior. Less rolling shutter, low light ect.

Nice! looks like a solid track. To bad the rocket missed :)

I like how you see the contrail through the back window. Did you pull the matte for the car in mocha ?

heh heh this is so awesome.. good job!
 
This has hatched a somewhat silly but awesome idea in my mind for a RED community "short" for when the other cameras are ready. A 15-minute action/drama piece that uses every single RED camera and lens accessory for specific shots to highlight the various capabilities of the camera systems.
 
I wonder, has Red ever considered an uploadable user gallery for those with Red cameras to share stuff like short videos. I'd certainly be wanting to upload some of our fight scene tests when we get our scarlet.

Good tracking, loved the lighting..
