Be a part of something great, join today!

  • 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 :)

Lone Star Red Users Group

OK, everyone, we're a go for June 30th at the Alamo Drafthouse on Slaughter Lane. I'll send out PMs and emails to those who've expressed interest to make sure it's on everyone's radar. I'm thinking about an Eventbrite setup to handle the $10 fee -- anyone had experience with it and care to comment?

Now for the $4K question -- who has 4K footage they want to see on the big screen?!

Feel free to hit me up at jaldrich at gmail dot com. More to come.
 
As threatened:

June 30th, 9am to 11am at the Alamo Draftouse Slaughter Lane we'll have our inaugural Lone Star Red User Group Meeting. We'll be watching footage in 4K, talking production and workflow, checking out gear from Wooden Camera and generally networking with other RED folks in hopes of creating some community for Digital Cinema here in the Lone Star State.

If anyone has 4K footage they'd like to see on the big screen, PM me -- I'll be gathering the footage for the event.
 
Got my tix and just shot a short a few weeks ago so maybe I'll talk the director into bringing some 4K clips.
 
I have a question about actually viewing the material in 4k... What exactly should we export out to? And how are we going to run it to project it?

I would love to show some stuff, but need just a little bit more info.
 
An excellent question, Michael. I've been in touch with the Alamo's DCP team and will be hopefully handing over samples next week. My guess is a .dpx sequence, which will then be fashioned into a .dcp package. I'll let you know more once I've got something concrete.
 
I had a great time doing this today. I hope we can meetup more often, even if just to share some thoughts and have a cold beer. Good work John.
 
A big thanks to John for pulling this off, to the Alamo Drafthouse folks for all of their help, and to everyone who came out to share the RED love. Hope to see you all again at the next meeting.
 
Please include me on the mailing list. I teach digital media in Houston. I work mostly on the post-production side of Red produced films and projects.
 
Yes, another thanks to John. We all had a great time! I'd be more than willing to help put the next one together. Everyones stuff looked great up on that large 4k Screen! It was also really great meeting everyone. Not a bad apple in the group!
 
Thanks everybody for coming and for the kind words! It was a lot of fun, great to meet everyone and get some community in Texas started! We'll do it again in six months or a year, so stay tuned and get your 4K projects together if you'd like to see it on the big screen.

Cheers

John
 
It's about time for a six month reunion, isn't it? Please add me to the list.
 
Any interest in getting this going again in a couple of months once Dragon starts showing up in quantity?
 
Yes, I am very interested in a new meetup.
 
Hi everyone -- I feel almost embarrassed to have dropped the ball on this so badly for so long --- mea culpa. I got hired for a long term project that took up a ton of time, so I had to put this on the back burner. If there's enough interest, how about another go around before Christmas? Or would January make more sense?
