  • 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 :)

A taste...

Scarlet will be the new Red One. Scarlet will have full Red One capabilities. Plus.
At Scarlet prices.
And Epic will be available free to Red One customers as a swap.
And we shall all be gods.
And Jim will then give everyone Imax quality Scarlets, Epic, Ones for free.
And all our money back because he's simply crazy and is love.
And he will look down on the world and see that it is good.
Red is the black monolith from 2001, but with better design.
Red is the singularity.

Am I way off?!?!?!!!

ok, I'm going to be really disappointed if none of this happens now.

Good luck, Jim... Good luck... :glare:
 
Come Nov. 13th you will hear more than you ever expected... then you will have to wait again (for delivery).
Jim

Any chance of a ballpark on the wait? or even the suburb the ballpark is in :shifty:

if the "early 2009" date still stands I'd guess right after NAB. But considering this "significant" redesign, I can't imagine they're still shooting for that.

oh well, we'll find out in 2 weeks.
 
I just got ALL accessories in the store for my ONE... Hope they will work with EPIC (and Scarlet, for some hopefully...) Else we might find a lot of RED accessories on eBay anytime soon...

:D

Red has stated evf's / lcds etc will work with scarlet & epic

My wildest speculations:

Scarlet and Epic share the same guts - it's the glass and modular add-ons that differentiate the price points.

Scarlet will be capable of higher resolutions/speeds/whatever through upgradeable firmware for a price. So you can turn a Scarlet into an Epic over time as your budget allows.

For the record, I love Audi buttons and miss my Audi :(

haha wild dreams from the scarlet guys...
 
Ah, this forum is so much fun. I mean, despite all the teasing by Jim & Co, this is what RED makes possible:

I'm sitting here, doing an indie DI (by myself, with desktop tools). I've been working from 8PM to 8AM, all week, pulling all nighters so I can get free access to a bunch of idle Mac Pro's. I'm onlining my 3.5 year passion project on Rwanda that started shooting on the DVX. My nighttime project is up-ressing all the old & archival footage to match this beautiful image-making machine, the RED.

Thanks to RED, this little passion project has thousands of moving images like the attached still. As a director I have the imaging power in my hands to tell the story about this little, forgotten place even though my show has no money.

And in the daytime, I make money renting Red's to big network shows like Scifi's Sanctuary, commercials and all that... showing other filmmakers how to use this powerful tool. The same tool empowers everybody on that chain.

The RED One is just the beginning. I can't wait to see what Jim's got up his sleeve.
 
I predict something crazy...Scarlet will be merged with the DSMC...crazy I know :clown2:

Something tells me Scarlet got pulled at the same time as the DSMC when the Canon and Nikon got announced, and now Red want to land a knockout punch...
 
Something tells me this is going to be a long-lengthy winter for a lot of folks, including yours truly...

But, if it's anything like the RED One's, it will be well worth the wait. And then some.
 
Come Nov. 13th you will hear more than you ever expected... then you will have to wait again (for delivery). The message will be more than you could have ever dreamed. Then the wait will be unbearable. I have to suffer the same fate as you. It is exciting beyond measure. And frustrating beyond belief. We all want it NOW. The only good news is we know what you want. So at least you will be waiting for something worthwhile... beyond your wildest dreams.

If I am wrong and let you down on what we present, you can turn away from Reduser forever. If I am right, please show patience... because you will not see what we will show you from anyone else.
