  • 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 :)

First ever RED music video (We think)...

I love how he takes the staircase down with the slight head tilt.
Sort of reminds me of how Jean Claude Van Damme used to "act" when his character is happy.

And his reaction when the hottie passes by. That face he makes is so bad it's gold.

Of course, that's got nothing to do with the beautiful RED footage.

I think you guys did an amazing job and it must've been hella fun just to hold the camera.
 
Very, very nice stuff, sir! I've been showing it off at work on our 1080p monitors, and people are soiling themselves! ;-)

With regards to the low-light shots, what ISO were you at? I presume it was 640+, judging by the grain. Regardless, the grain in the image more closely resembles film grain rather than video noise, which is a very, very good thing!
 
i'd love to see how the color grade is going to affect this footage.

There are a few areas that i'm curious to see how you work with them.
specifically the dark hallway, and the dance sequence front shot because both are significantly dark, i'm curious to see the threshold of noise.

There are some breathtaking shots, and some that need help/editing - i'm interested to see this work in progress!

Can't wait to see the next edit or final
Please post the final when you're done!

If anything, this video has only highlighted the importance of good directing, good lighting, good subject matter, set design, make-up, etc.

RED has performed remarkably well BUT if not for me wanting to check out the performance of RED I wouldn't give this video "Solo El Principio" a second look.

In defense of the Director it was his first project. And I can't say it's my type of music but it's certainly not the worst MV i've been a part of. That's just the nature of the job, one for the meal one for the reel.

I've got a lot on the plate right now (Blogging from PA after shooting) but I'll hopefully have time to finish the grade by next week.

Evin I'm diggin' those images like crazy. Take care to have someone with you that aide in sync-ing the vocals to the image. I spotted one or two misses here and there, and since it's a foreign language that could be tricky for someone who doesn't have a good grip on it.
