Okay ... with Jarred's blessing it's time to spill some beans.

Steve Sherrick, who produced the NAB 2009 REDUSER EVENT & I have partnered to produce a series of very, very special EAST COAST REDUSER EVENTS.

Here's the plan as it stands -

October 2009 - NYC (target date October 24th)
December 2009 - Boston
February 2010 - NYC

APRIL 2010 - NAB REDUSER EVENT

June 2010 - NYC
August 2010 - Boston
October 2010 - NYC
December 2010 - Boston

These will be ALL DAY events on SATURDAYS ending with a screening of a (at least one) feature film shot on RED and .... a party.

Because life is short.

We are currently focused on securing the venues in NYC and Boston. This will dictate some logistics of what we can or cannot do - as well as our budgetary constraints - once we have secured we can meet with potential sponsors, which we expect to do during IBC. Several companies have expressed interest privately, so I am confident enough to post.

I was totally impressed with what Steve did at NAB and totally excited to collaborate with him on producing some kick ass events.

We would love all your ideas and feedback as we shape the events - but the general concept is to combine a social, networking atmosphere with presentations, panels, demos and guest speakers. We are going to push hard to create exciting, educational panels and get the right guest speakers and presenters so this is not just "watch the vendors do the dog and pony show".

Stay tuned ....
 
Mark and Steve can do this better than anyone else I know..
 
Very cool. I would love to see some in depth discussions and demonstrations of real world work flow scenarios. Love when all the manufacturers get together but its very hard to get more than product demos at most of these.

Thanks for your work guys. NAB was great. I know this will be something to see.

Fantastic!

Let us know how to sign up for this.
 
some examples of panels I'd like to produce - 3D production with Red, Shooting for print - high end fashion & editorial shoots the RED ONE, Shooting for VFX on the RED ONE, Options for DIT/Red Tech/Media Manager procedures
 
These sound like solid ideas Mark.

Perhaps another would be shooting with the new RPP's. Many of us are expecting a set in the near future and some instruction on the finer points of lighting from a quality DP would be interesting.

I'm sure you and Steve will come up with some compelling reasons to attend. Thanks for your effort.
 
Great .....
 
Great idea!

Count me in Mark & Steve and let me know if I can help out!

It would be great if you could one of the events more down south. Not everyone lives near Boston/NYC. Atlanta/Nashville/Charlotte would be great locations since they are all easily reachable in the south.

You never know, but as of right now it's easiest for Mark and I to organize these in our own backyards and we figure people won't mind traveling a little bit to spend a day or two in New York or Boston. We're hoping to really make these worth people's time. Nuts and bolts stuff stuff during the day that newbies and working professionals will benefit from. And we'll have some fun too, no doubt about that. Great chance for networking too. And we all know that sometime in the future there will be new cameras hitting the market, with potentially new topics to discuss.

Not that it's impossible to organize an event in distant places, as I did for the Vegas events, but those probably took a few years off my life. :-)

Your artwork was a big hit at NAB, and we'd be honored to have more contributions from you for these events as well. But we've got to get some money to pay you this time. :-)
