  • 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 :)

Crash camera

LOL!! Chuck & Gibby - you guys crack me up -

You know, it would be really amazing if a bunch of "colorful" RED reservationists "documented" their first shoots & tests with thier REDs and somebody cut all that together - there is a lot of color in RED ...


Chuck -

I will want a crash housing for sure. I used 2 or 3 with 35mm eyemos on SUPER TROOPERS - besides the obvious crash stunts and pyro gags - it's really good for car stunts where you don't plan to crash ... but you just might ...

Hey offhollywood,

No problem with the crash housing. Currently we are a bit back logged due to such a high demand for this product. And I assume since your a two camera owner that you will be wanting yours set up for 3-D shooting. Will that be for polarized or anaglyphic type 3-D ? Which ever way is fine but due to the complexity of such a project, it will require that we have both cameras in house for a minimum of six months. As I've already mentioned to others, the best thing to do would be to have the cameras drop shipped directly to me from the factory.
We are also proud to announce the newest product from Jakes Foundry.
Yes "Jakes" where we take your GMC truck and make it into something useful! The Jakes Foundry Mu metal camera shipping case. This breakthru product will protect your RED camera sensor from not only cosmic rays but also will prevent fogging of the sensor from airport xray machines. We also offer the frequent flyer the Jakes Mu Metal Bennie, so important when flying on todays aging and decaying aircraft. Frequent flyers may purchase either item by transfering their flyer miles directly to, Jakes Foundry Ltd.
 
I hate to get the thread off topic, here, but Chuck, I was wondering where my P2 cards are. I sent them to you seven months ago for that capacity upgrade (and yes, I sent my D200 with primes), but have not yet received the 128Gb cards.

Sorry to bother you durring this heavy season, but I really need to know an ETA. I've put off filming my wedding for six months now, and my fiance is getting kinda funny.
 
LV,

Didn't you get me email about six months ago? As I told you right from the start MAYBY we could do it with just the primes but as it turns out we require the Cooke zooms, both of them. Once we have the zooms in hand I would expect the turn around to be in a predictable time frame.
Oh and by the way, what do you mean GETTING kinda funny?

yours as ever,

Chuck
 
Hey, chuck...

It sounds like you guys are swamped up there. Perhaps I could lend a hand. I'm not a bad welder and I look alright in a flannel shirt. Or at least the wife thinks so because she let me wear one to our wedding. Relocation isn't a problem right now as we're living out of the RV. Had to sell the house in order to finance this RED camera thing. I need to get out of town anyway, my cousin knows I've ordered RED and he wants to use to shoot pornos.

So let me know if you could use another hand. If you have a spot out back where I can park the RV and plug in that would be swell. I don't mean to impose, but it would be even better if Jake has an extra stall in the barn so the missus and I could offload the kids at night.

Oh, yeah... I'll bring my rifle and shotgun collection too. My boy sure likes playing with them and he's ready to start collecting his own. But I keep telling him he at least as to wait a few more months for his 2nd birthday.

re: Orygun relocation

Dear Mr. Kilgroe,

After confering with upper mangement, (Mr. Jake Brake) we would be pleased to accept your resume at this time. Please also include five personal references and tax history for the last seven years. Also we will require current bank account and creditcard numbers to verify your credit history.
If all proves to be valid, we see no problem with locating your mobile home within the perimeter of our industrial park. The rustic sleeping cabin for the youngsters is also doable so long as they remember to NEVER (and this is critical) never let Jakes dog dish run out of kibble. I take it the two young ladies in your avatar are your older daughters. Young women of that age of course would not be comfortable in the cabin and I think it would be best if I were to arrange sleeping quarters in the main house for them with me.
We offer a generous compensation package here at Jakes Foundry which includes dental, (up to one tooth a year) and access to the company fishing boat (after appropiate patching) and two Zebco fishing rod packages. This of course is after a six month probationary period.
Feel free to contact us with any further questions.

yours:

Chuck Colburn
Sr. Principal Mechanician

"That there's an RV, Clark...she's a beauty aint she! Dontcha go thinkin' yer gonna keep 'er..she goin' with me when I leave here next month!"

"I don't know if I'd do that Clark..she's gotta fungus on her lip we ain't identified yet!"

Randy Quaid - "Christmas Vacation"

(Don't get me started on his lines about Snots, his Mississippi Leghound...)
 
Gibby,

If next time you are watching Christmas vacation take a close look at Randy Quaid in the store dog food scene. He must have went to craft service before that scene and had them give him the biggest sausage they had and shoved it down the pants of his blue leasure suit. He would put most horses to shame. They do not draw it to your attention to keep it a little subtle but when I noticed it on about my 5 watch I died laughing.
 
Yeah...IMO one of the funniest movies ever made. Every year at holiday season I have to watch it at least once...seen it 20 times and it still cracks me up!

It's there later in the movie during the kidnapping and the swat team crashing the house too. I'm glad he didn't do it for the pool scene with the undershirt tucked into his speedo. Hehe.

I'd also have to agree with Gibby. Definitely one of the funniest movies ever made. A true Christmas classic and I watch it at least once a year. Randy Quaid emptying the port-a-crapper into the storm sewer was comic genius. "Shitter was full!"
