Major Update...

yeah.. such stupidity hurts..

now.. their last hobby is quoting this forum.. it seems they have paid some attention on what's going on here..

if it wasn't for such stupidity and because they're reading us, i won't care.. but some their quotes are too much.. lol

there's a guy named john holland who says this:

"For fucks sake , when are you Red worshippers going to get it , you dont need a 4k digital camera to make movies , look at that awful film "The Blair Witch Project " shot with a couple of empty baked bean tins and a bit of tape running through them . Cost about if i remember about $25,000 , made about $250 million , the audiences loved it . Its story people , please understand it ."

is it necessary to comment?.. because it seems they feel no need at all in everything above Hi8.. including film.. eheheh.. their quotes ain't fools proof.. sometimes, there can't be nothing similar to film.. when they have no any argument other than as the obvious or what can serve them.. they're thinking they can teach the other people here.. it's pathetic.. maybe because they're posting from a site called cinematography.com, they're thinking they are owners of the truth in this field..

and coming from this holland, it's still more funny.. their fuck quotes seem what the bad scriptwriter needs when doesn't find (the necessary) creative speech for the characters..

the only one who can speak a little bit is David Mullen and period.. he doesn't need to use the slang..

however, for their information, i've been working with some DPs with a most interesting career than this guy from twin falls idaho and.. eheheh..

my last word goes to the envy on jarred's contribution.. how much they're attacking this cool giant, they're showing jarred's role over this red stuff.. red is not only jannard.. red is jarred too.. and a good sample of their mediocrity is basically over these personal attacks towards jarred.. they don't forgive themselves for the others success.. and jarred climbed the door that they would like to have open and it is not.

they underestimated what they couldn't.. a 1,2 billion dollar business man.. c'mon, who are they thinking are they cheating?!.. this has been their mistake..
 
lol :)
 
Yes, agreed . . . now, back to Jim's stunning announcements! "We still believe that we can fill all reservations safely by September or October." That's AWESOME! That's WAY sooner than I expected! "There will be significant announcements and industry partnerships [announced at NAB]." Wow! The mind reels with the possible strategic partnerships RED may inspire!

I can tell you right now that any serious company not considering allying with the RED force, is foolish. The buzz on RED is starting to get hot, and when the market driven forces culminate to critical mass, those partnerships will most definately pay off.

You summed up...I wouldn't say all the point(s) but one of the major ones, especially for a few (who truly leads it -- the other ones are simply followers).

So, just as I've seen in the post-production audio world, where seasoned veteran mixers look at the Mix-it-in-the-box folks as unable to make anything worth listening to, I'm seeing the same attitude towards the "independent" filmakers and cinematographers roaming this site.

It is indeed laughable how similar all this is to the audio world back in 1990.
We had sound guys dumping anything digital, we had talent flatly refusing to be recorded on anything but analog tape.
Look where we are now.
I´ve seen a lot of studios where the dust on the 24 track is becoming a health threat.
And to spin the analogy further: Soundtools and later early ProTools Versions are quite primitive in retrospect.
Imagine a world 10 years from now when the RED ONE is considered primitive. What are we going to have?
Light improving instead of light gathering devices? Lenses with minus stop marks because of some Mysterium Voodoo algorithms? Handheld 600mm shots because of some target lock mechanism licensed from the military?

Cheerio,
Jochen
 
48 hours later - more that 11 000 views...

Seems like a record.




I guess that tells you a lot, Jim.
 
Thanks Jim and RED team,
It is all good news and some postponed good news! Sorry to be unable to see you all at NAB. Some live video over the net would be very nice. Keep the good work we have trust in you!
 
I know its kind of off topic but...Re filmmaker's gang's quote of John Holland's comment on Blair Witch - not everyone wants to make movies about kids being spooked in a forest or hand-held verite' films. It's all horses for courses. I personally never put 100% into my DV projects because I hated everything about it - it just doesn't inspire! Yes we MUST have mobile phone/hi8/ miniDV filmmakers AND RED shooters! Every project has its 'appropriate' medium. I now spend too many waking hours conceptualizing the feature I'm gonna shoot on RED and its an awesome feeling! AND lenses...I never even used to think about lenses! I'm sorry but I felt a seismic shift in my attitude and its all because of RED, the company, the attitude...
 
Well I don't know? I go down to Burgundy for a few days to buy several cases of Premier Cru and look what happens while I'm away ----> FANTASTIC NEWS - thankyou Jim and the RED team - Well done!! Well done!!

well i dont know about anyone else but im a cinematographer.. i dont write the stories.. my job is to show up.. light the scene accordingly... know which lenses im using and shoot the scene and make it look as best as possible.. if the director wants shitty hi8 or 8mm then fine.. ill do that.. but im buying the red to produce commercial products!.. obviously the DP tells the story through movement and lighting and so on.. but honestly.. im paid to shoot someone else's story.. as long as my project looks good and conveys what the director wants me to convey via cinematography then i have done my job...


so anyways with that out of the way.. to stay on topic..
JIM IS RAD
 
Red naysayers getting worried...:waaa:
 
Ha ha ha, very nice Eric - good to see the old 'Blighty' sense of humour is intact!

Nice one or two come to that.

All the best, Phil
 
Love it ! very funny.

Picture post was just intended as an observation about Red skeptics in general, rather than a dig at anyone specific! :innocent:
