Ok - here goes. I'm looking to offer wedding cinematography to supplement income. Doing my first freebie to build the reel this weekend, so I need to make a decision ASAP. I'm having trouble working out the name. My options so far are: 1) Walkingstick Films - this is my film production company...

I'm considering getting back into the wedding market (used to do wedding photography back in the day). I'm trying to figure out the logistics of shooting on RED. I have a 240GB SSD and a 64GB SSD. I'm sure I can rent plenty of media for the cash that one can make on a good wedding, but I'm...

My background started in wedding/portrait photography. I began with a Canon 5D m2 when they first came out, moved to the m3, then in September upgraded to the world of RED Scarlet. I know you guys basically rip stills from the footage to get your images, but the whole workflow of everything is a...

I picked up my Scarlet X back around September... I haven't even had a chance to really use it much yet as I don't do this for a living (yet). My first production where I'll break it in is coming up this spring... Now there's the news about the weapon coming out... I can't afford to drop another...

I'm trying to setup my previz software (FrameForge 3D) for use with my camera and lenses, and I'm having a hard time getting the settings right. I'm lost on whether or not my lens entries should account for crop factors or not. We're shooting 4k on a Red Scarlet X. Currently my FrameForge 3D...

So how did everyone get started? I'm new to the RED side of things, but here's my story. I started out as a wedding/portrait photographer in the DSLR world. After Katrina, and the film industry floated up to Shreveport (Louisiana) from New Orleans, I got into working as background and fell in...

Hey everyone... here's my setup. I'm running a Sennheiser m66 shotgun with a k6 power module through a custom 8" xlr cable to the WC A-Box... then Abox to camera. I did some test shots, but I'm not too good with all of the audio settings. The sound was barely audible - not sure what went...

Ok... So, I understand the process for licensing an already existing song for your film... My question is how would one get in touch with a band, or an artist, to hire them to record an original song for your film? Do you scour the net looking for their manager? Is their an easier way?

** THIS IS NOT MY WORK** Found this linked on the Rokinon facebook page. Shot with RED Epic, RED Scarlet, and 5Dm3. Rokinon Cine lenses were mains with a Canon 16-35mm. Produced, Shot, Edited, and Directed by James Cawley. http://youtu.be/6aECp2GDW5o

So... There's a short film festival held in Shreveport, Louisiana every year with a $50k grand prize... I entered in 2014, and planned on entering in 2015... I partnered with a childhood friend, who is a talented writer, to help me co-write the short film. We broke the film into four sections...

Planning on OC to 4.6GHz. I only have about 2k to spend... I've picked up the case and PSU - that's it so far. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/YppDf7

I'm in the middle of making a PC upgrade. I have about 2k to spend. I was shopping motherboards and my friend insists that there is a big enough difference to warrant paying about $120 more for a motherboard that allows 2 GPUs SLI to run at PCI-e 3.0 2x16 instead of getting the better...

Shooting promo footage for my upcoming indiegogo for a film I'm doing this spring. The place was abandoned so no juice to run lights, did the best I could do with natural lighting and bounce. Could have used a little more fill... blah. Thoughts? This is my first outing with the RED Scarlet. Big...

Ok - so I'm having to buy each fan seperate. Which one would make the largest reduction in noise and provide better cooling for the time being until I can pick up the other fan? The top one or the bottom one? I have a Scarlet. Thanks!

Shooting a short in the spring. This is a first with a lot of action/stunts/guns/etc. I'm needing logistics on how to shoot/pull off two shots. 1). Scene running through the woods beside our lead - picture her feet as she's running through brush - camera going beside her. I'd need a couple of...

Stumbled across this while researching a solution for a simple scratch track for syncing A/V. Thoughts? All I'm needing is something to pick up the slate to sync in post. Would this work? Has anyone tried it? The price is low enough to take a risk... Anyone interested in trying it out? If I pick...

What are your solutions for scratch audio? If you don't record scratch or reference tracks, please dont post "I only record off camera"... I need to know what works well with the RED and is fairly easy to mount to a cheese cage. The sound doesn't have to be awesome.. just need audio with the...

Can anyone share what setup or what they use for audio playback when shooting music videos?

Looking for some help - Im going to start trying to figure out how to pull off slow-motion for a scene in an upcoming short Im shooting. I DO have Twixtor, but this is all new to me so I need to learn how to use it. So question - I want 3k to make it easier to match the 4k footage from the rest...

Who do you guys go through for your commercial renters insurance for your camera and gear? I need a policy that covers rentals if possible - although a coi with myself named as payee will be required prior to letting anything out of my sight. I would just feel better "just in case" ya know?
