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 :)
For those who may have an interest in conservation. Sobering news coming out of Africa where for the last 2yrs scientists have been engaged in what has been dubbed the Great Elephant Count. Absolutely gutted to hear that the news is way worse than expected. In just the last 7yrs some 30% of...
Hi guys,
Am putting together a project outline for a time-lapse film that I hope to present during the 13th Festival of Pacific Arts and Culture that will be held in 2020 (not a typo) in Hawaii. I have an outline of the project on my website and am currently in discussions with the Tourism...
Stoked with my final standing of fourth overall of 15 finalists and runner up in my category, Documentary / Social Commentary.
Finalists films can be seen at the Festival Website
A recent project shot on a number of different cameras, sorry not RED, but as a pause from the RED Discussions and to stay off topic here's something I completed this year. A Timelapse short film with dialog, a story and a goal.
Critique welcome. If anything I think I need more attention to...
Looking to upgrade or change out to a new 5D3 DSLR for stills etc. As I also shoot time-lapse am wondering about the 5DS but have heard there could be issues with low light shooting capabilities, especially the noise factor in the ISO3200-6400 range for Milky Way sequences. Just wondering if...
Hi Folks,
I've been using MPEG Streamclip for most applications prior to working in UHD for all of my conversions and downrezzing for online promotions etc, such as YouTube and Vimeo. Now that I am looking to start dealing with larger formats and MPEG Streamclip seems only to work up to 2K I'm...
Just thinking out loud here, RED has the resources and skill sets at RED to do it. I'm wondering why they don't have a feature exclusive to the RED Camera range similar to Kickstarter but more along the lines for funding projects slated for filming with RED Cinema Cameras? Some of the bigger...
Post 'em up folks. Shot this this morning whist waiting for some renders on a short doco pitch I'm piecing together....
Focus stacked from 9 images shot on a 5DMk3 with a back story on reconnecting with nature ....

Three scenarios. What would be the ideal system for editing 6K footage into a deliverable format for Broadcast / Distribution within the three categories of No expense spared, Costly but not astronomic and Indy Filmmaker options. ANy overview of component parts, software and price expectations...
Hi guys,
Just a question. Is there any hard and fast formulas or an unwritten rule that dictates what kind of % of a production budget goes toward the cinematography of it? I understand there are many aspects of consideration under said cinematography segment of the gig but any guidelines would...
Have just had an audition from a guy who I think has a great voice. Whilst we didn't go with this chap for this small, not shot on RED, film for a Non-Profit conservation group in Bali I thought I'd like to make you guys aware of him. His name is Andy Morris, whom started out as simply a...
I'm currently in Yokohama, will be for a couple of months. Looking to build a homemade slider as a hobby project but wondering where I could source that kind of hardware. Is there a National chain of supplies and rails such as Igus or something similar to ServerCity? Also if anyone is interested...
Hi Guys,
I'm using a SYRP Genie with Magic Carpet Sliders for some shoots in my neck of the woods, Bali. I've had some custom transport bags made as nothing existed from the slider manufacturer. I am open to possible orders for additional bags for other sliders too. These bags I make are 27cm...
I've got one unused Atomos Ninja2 field recorder for sale. Was bought for a project which was then knocked back and eventually out.
Never used, OK so I fiddled around with it for around 2 hours. Purchased from Cathay Photo in Singapore and now residing in Bali where I live.
Included:
Atomos...
Hi all,
Am planning to do some shopping in Singapore on Thursday. On the market to get a slider for some motion control shoots planned over the next couple months filming around Indonesia. The slider I have in mind is the Konova 80cm track. Anyone with experience of this or care to suggest what...
Just got myself one of these units, a poor man's solution to timelapse and motion control. Will be starting a shoot in the coming week so looking forward to see what I can accomplish. Just wondering if anyone else here has used one, or has thought on it?
Syrp Genie
Cheers,
Marc
