Looking at medium tier productions may not be the worst thing in the world, if they also focus on finding amazing scripts that lead to great movies that people fall in love with. Personally, I'd rather see a $20 million dollar movie that makes me feel something than a $200 million dollar movie...

Wow, seems like a lot of casualties starting to happen in the film industry as things change, gear gets cheaper, more accessible. I know the process for making these charts was not cheap, hence why they charged a premium for them, but they are great products and it's a shame if there is a void...

Julien, this looks great. Captured the emotion of the song with your camera work, lighting, and texture. Says there was a behind the scenes videographer. Do you have a BTS of the filming you can share? Would be interesting to see your setups. Nice work!

When AI can replicate the cinematic mastery of a film like Schindler's List, and all of the amazing acting performances throughout cinema's history, the nuances, the emotional connection to the audience, the cathartic journey that movies can take you on, then it will have something. Until then...

Yes, this was very sad news. I worked with John on a film a few years back and we stayed in touch throughout the years. Very generous guy willing to share knowledge and a talented DP. RIP John!

Awesome insight there about where this is heading. Confirmed some things for me. Also occurred to me that Jarred and I may be the only people I know that always have a baseball cap on in every photo we take. If there's a RED-Nikon one at some point, I will probably buy it. Can never have enough...

Are you referring to color or general overall image quality? Assuming you have things set for full debayer in Resolve, there's also a preference setting for playback performance that can affect the clarity of the image during playback. you can set this to off to play image with no optimization...

I watched the Livestream with Scott, Phil, and Jarred which filled in some holes for me, but of course only so much can be revealed at this time. I think this was an acquisition made based on each company benefitting from the other at this moment in time. How that plays out in 3, 5, 10 years...

Are you getting residue from the oil based one? Some oil based hazers have been banned from union sets due to safety issues as far as I know. DF50 from ReelFX uses food grade mineral oil and is generally accepted unless things have changed.

Perfect! Although I will probably never use the iPhone 15 Pro Max as my A cam I do like the idea of having it available for those times when I might need it and having an external drive that utilizes the mag safe is kind of cool. I also have the Polar Pro case which allows easy snap in of an ND...

I hadn't even heard of these. That price isn't terrible. Especially if these are at the top of your list or close to the top if something else has come along and earned the #1.

This is the only one that would worry me. If at some point I wanted to bring something I did while learning the software into a full Baselight project. But have to think of it as a learning version, not a light version I guess.

I think we had a similar experience with the change happening around 10.4. Another friend did as well. And there were some issues with the RED QT plugin around that time as well. Things had been very smooth up to that point. But like you the beachball started around this time with larger...

Just checked out Baselight Look. That seems like a great way to learn the program!

Yeah, it is great to know as many as possible. I haven't looked at Baselight recently, I'll have a look. But yeah in general the more tools you know, the better you can assess the right tool for the job.

FCP has been my go to NLE for years now. Started on Avid, went to FCP 7 (while still using Avid) when I had my home edit suite, and then FCPX when I finally decided to get over my stubbornness of learning trackless workflow. To me, even despite some of the pro features it was lacking, it is just...

I still appreciate having this forum. Thanks for the refresh Jarred!

A question for my fellow Redusers who are well versed in the computer science side of things, what is your opinion of antivirus software for Macs running Big Sur and Monterey? I have always tried to avoid AV software as I felt the tradeoff in computer performance might outweigh the small risk of...

In a color session yesterday we were seeing aliasing and moire on a couple of shots (Monstro footage). Very rare to ever see moire/aliasing with RED footage. So I assumed it must be playback. Checked to make sure I was playing back at full res premium at 16 bit (thank you M1 Max). Tried...
