I have seen a lot of Komodo vfx/xr/vr just randomly as a passerby. A vr/vfx rig with monstro was just way to expensive for me, so i gave up on that. With Komodo I could see the global shutter and running it a 48 fps would be great for things like performance capture and even fight scenes...

Man this is a well shot film, also the mix of contrast and color is just crazy. I think it was mainly with helium and processed red raw, one of the more masterful demonstrations what could be done with that camera. I haven't seen any real behind the scene details on this, but wow across the...

I watch a lot of Chinese tv and every now and then I notice some RED gear, but I don't read Chinese. I really like the quality and approach of many of these mainland Chinese productions, but it's not covered much in English. Anyone have any insights on these productions, and maybe a few...

I am finding I don't have any problems keeping up with r3d 8k anymore, it's getting so fast with all the RED improvements. After I get to a DI though, rendering and compositing often fall apart at higher res. I have noticed the processing is happening fairly evenly across the cores, and the...

Been playing around with gemini today with master prime anamorphic and only using practical & natural lighting - just amazing. I am prefering shooting at 1280 iso at the 3600x3000 6/5 anamorphic mode. It's just "lush", kind of reminds me of that "Fanny & Alexander" color feel. With 3000 pixels...

I think there's enough monstro anamorphic users to have a little thread on the specifics on using anamorphics with the new VV monstro. The monstro anamorphic is a shooters dream in that it's about perfect for current anamorphic glass with the 4320 pixel height at 21.60, also with the improved...

This is probably a stupid question since I should have asked it a long time ago, but every now and then on my mac pro's if I have a usb connected redmag (and minimag) my keyboard doesn't work. What I normally do is just remove the mag usb cable, and that normally cleans it up. I also have have...

I am starting to convert all my workflow to linux, and though I'm a ubuntu guy for my laptops thinking of going to Centos for all servers. I normally have the nvidia m6000's but also am doing a lot more with the 1080's, and will have multiple 1080's per server. Also I'm attempting to stay...

I'm trying to learn networked audio, timecode & metadata for film. I'm specifically interested in getting the dialog metadata from the script supervisor intergrated to the shot lists with dual record from the cameras and audio's recorders. Also I need the time code to feed into my performance...

I have been wandering around the GTC (gpu conference) in san jose a couple of days, here's some of the stuff I found interesting: New Nvidia camera processor for Cars - This is like a super computer that is designed to fit in the trunk of a car. It can take 12 camera inputs and convert them...

Not sure how many hit the final fantasy XV event in LA, but I was really impressed with it's push in creating a cinematic universe. I think it should be viewable through the finalfantasyxv.com site. Wondering what others thoughts are on this, also there's a big push on cinematic universe with...

There a bunch of information on finding the least parallax point for stills photography, but I haven't found much for PL lenses and cinematography. Also most of the info out there is for still photography lenses, I haven't found a single spec for cinema lenses ( I btw try not to use still shots...

I'm not sure if I'm missing something obvious, but on the epic I had the ethernet connection, but with the weapon that only comes with the redvolt expander (which isn't in the package, for sure not default). So i'm not sure for VR and performance capture what to do for master/slave (i.e. for...

I'd like to know how people are using the moco mode in weapon, I've finally got around to doing my genlock and timecode integration to my camera motion capture and actor performance capture system. I decided to actually read the red weapon manual all the way through to figure things out, and...

I've seen a couple of threads on the bundles, I also wasn't so sure about the weapon woven bundle, but I'm really happy with it now that I've been able to "get" what Red is doing with the weapon. [Also negative comments on the bundles] For example I've seen the XL modules being sold, I also...
