[Roberto Lequeux]

A good test is worth a thousand expert opinions.

Sometimes you need to see it. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, ain't'it?

Chart tape. An AC without chart tape is just a PA that knows the difference between clockwise and counter-clockwise.;

As to where SCARLET is made:

Made in the USA.

HAHA!

wow thats a quote!!

Well no, but it does confirm my suspicions, Epic has a strong power draw. It may last up to three hours on a Red Brick, but the gravitational force it creates is very strong. It'll pull not only Tonacis and Josephs, but all RedUsers alike. Be VERY careful when powering it up. It will even draw a Ted from halfway around the world.

The force is strong in this one..

Obvious, yet profound:

It seems like it might be better to ask the question rather than assume a mistake? Just a thought.

There is the real world and then their is pixel-peeping-land.

There are all sorts of real world factors that are going to affect measurable resolution shot by shot, we don't make movies starring line resolution charts.

Trust me, if we were sitting in a theater with F3 footage and some of the footage that we've shot here on Spider-Man... you'd be speechless. Judging a camera's abilities on Vimeo is exactly what makes DSLRs look so good.

Last thoughts:
Nobody who lost their lives in the Chile or Japan disasters knew that day or night would be their last one alive. This adds a whole new dimension to the proverb "Live each day as if its your last - and someday you'll be right". My suggestion to all of you is to embrace each day with great thankfulness, respect, and personal commitment. Don't take anything or anyone for granted - you or they could very well be gone tomorrow. I know...

1st AD on a recent EPIC commercial shoot following a complicated shot,

"Nailed it! Moving on."

Sadly, every pound they've managed to take off the camera, I replaced somewhere around my mid-section..

By a factor of x3. :rolleyes5:

We are in the process of moving EPIC production from Stage 6 at RED Studios Hollywood to the permanent location in Irvine.

EPIC is a miracle

Jim

Thats it..

I understand the frustration of delays more than anyone on this planet.

I foresee hot Italian babes underwater in 3-D.... a whole new genre, call it "Ketch-O-Vision"

"Fuck the whiners..." - Jarred Land. That's my favorite Land-ism cause it just fits in so many places and you can kinda picture him saying it out loud. It was originally used in regards to the subject of "inappropriate content" being posted on REDUser, specifically a trailer for one of the earlier porns shot on RED.

...

Life is short. Put yourself in a position doing what you were meant to do. Expect curveballs. They come. Do your best and take the consequences.

 

[Martin Weiss]

...

Life is full of obstacles. They never end. The ones the get past them have the richest life.

One upside of not all posts having been indexed yet is that one finds older gems from Jim:

I happen to like the passion. While I don't have any Japanese blood, it is human nature to keep going when you have support. The "fanboys" are solely responsible for us swinging for the fences now. It costs a ton of money and a big commitment to invest in the projects we are doing. We would NEVER have done RPPs or EPIC and Scarlet without the vocal encouragement of this community. When people believe in you... you just don't want to let them down.

Jim

Everything can, and will, be made better. The only questions are when and by whom?

Jim

RAW is like a digital negative. It gives you a ton more flexibility now and in the future.

This program is about having fun... that is the PRIMARY reason that RED exists.

Jim

All the knowledge transfers forward.

Jim

We'll do one better...

Jarred is here at work on crutches... never misses a day no matter what.

Jim

While there is no downside to buying a RED ONE ... you are likely to get hooked and want to keep it and also buy an EPIC!

Explaining color science:

"Dark magic" is the best explanation I have heard so far...

Jim

And finally a quote as important as "everything is subject to change, count on it":

We are going to take whatever time is necessary to make each product better than the last.
