  • 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 :)

HBO Entourage

Nice, clean shot of the RED logo on the side of the camera during the season premiere last night.
 
Also I think an Epic was in the vehicle.. right around 24:52.
 
Seems like the whole episode was decorated with RED rigs. Probably cheaper than renting other cameras to give the illusion of a film set for the show.

are you saying they dont have a prop department with prop cameras ? or that these prop cameras cost more than 30-50 k a piece ..doubtful


its product placement for advertising the Red ... nothing wrong with it at all


why dont they just use the mx it has to be cheaper than film in the long run ?
 
I thought it would be cool to have Nick Cassavetes handholding the Epic. Ted and Jarred were kind enough to loan us a prototype for two days of shooting. Element Technica offered up their 3D rig which was also featured on the faux movie set.

We shoot in 35 but I am a RED owner and aficionado.

I was wondering when someone was going to notice. No fair that Rob had inside knowledge. But yeah, its the Quasar's screen debut. No lines mind you but me thinks it the first on screen cameo of a 3D rig :D

The Quasar used is hoping it gets invited to the wrap party. At the shop its gone all diva on us.
 
Great work Rob - love Entourage mate. This made watching Entourage that bit more enjoyable. "Spot the RED"

Alternate view from the boot.. prominent RED logo showing.

Mate - was it the 3D rig on the SteadiCam - or did I miss it?
 
I spotted the element technica 3D rig... just didn't want to be corny by mentioning every piece of cool gear... LOL
 
Saw the season opening last night - did not know it was filmed on the Red. Noticed the Epic. Cool!

i dont know if you noticed but he's wearing Oakley gloves too ... Jim bought entourage!


i kid but that would be killer
 
Oakley is now owned by Luxottica, worked for them many moons ago in a different life. The owner Leonardo Del Vecchio is a workaholic, much like Jim I guess. You gotta be if you have a dream.
I reckon Oakley is a lot different today than when Jim was running it.
I guess the old saying is true; change is the only constant.
