  • 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 to make a feature with Scarlet

. . . joking about Joseph Hutson "The Valley of the Dogs" film of course but not about the marketing importance of being first to market like Vincent Laforet. From a NYT still photographer (dying trade) to the Voice of All DSLR Filmmaking in one weekend. Philip Bloom = much better filmmaker, but not an opportunist - he makes gentle art and runs the best blog for young filmmakers. Vinny is running around SoCali with the new Canon S35 and will get more famous from that starting tomorrow.
 
I know a lot of people will do their feature film with the Scarlet. my shooting date is this summer for a 2013 release. I wanted the red one MX but we'll see what the scarlet will be tomorrow :)

you got me. I was looking forward to The Valley of the Dogs.

IMO, Bloom is a good cinematographer, or DP whatever you want to call it. But I've never seen him release anything that wasn't as boring as watching paint dry. Very, very pretty framing, lighting and camera moves, of the most boring content imaginable. Oh look, here's a gorgeous shot... of an old man smoking a pipe. Wow, look at that beautiful dolly... of some bushes and a rusty wagon.

Let Tarantino direct and Bloom DP then it might get interesting.

Agreed on Bloom's simple, everyday content - which is exactly why he is such a great model for young fimmakers. There's a bunch of kids who have access to Mom making pasta and a GH2 or equal. But can they do this tonight?: http://vimeo.com/17062701

Zero budget+common scenarios+cheap camera can = fun little movies that are teaching points

You should seriously warn people before watching this around dinner time. You can get seriously hungry by watching!
 
Mrs Bloom cooks like Keith Floyd :smile:

. . . and drinkies like Keith Richards (said with respect and humor since Philip actually put in "slurp" foley for one of her later swigs)
 
. . . bet it will be a Porn Film. The 2/3 chip and price point is great for that!
 
Prediction: Dec 2012 for the first film shot 100% (or nearly so) on Scarlet to get a theatrical release.

Reasoning: The film will be shot this spring, posted over the summer and hit the festival circuit in the fall. It'll win something and secure a distribution deal that specifies a theatrical release that year, in order to qualify for Academy awards buzz (for a hot actor or writer, or *maybe* a director).

FASTER!
Much faster.

... i´ve got the feeling, no matter what the specs, it´s becoming the new work horse camera ...

... but we shall see in less then 110000 seconds ...
