NAB 213 update...

[Jannard]

The RED team has been working overtime (the ultimate understatement) to make sure we don't disappoint at NAB 2013.

What we are doing on so many fronts is not easy. Just the opposite. It is all nearly impossible when you consider where the other companies are today... and they have had decades of practice.

It wasn't too long ago that we bravely entered this market with a "4K for everyone" camera. Then we invented upgrades. Admittedly, we knew less of what we were doing than more. But we continued to push ahead with the same "we don't know what not to do" attitude.

For all of our faults (many)... caring about our customers and pushing the envelope are not two of them. This always seems to have us riding the ragged edge. This NAB presentation is no exception. We are trying to do things never done before and the clock is ticking for us to get ready.

We have been particularly quiet before this one for good reason... we aimed incredibly high and it will be a close call. I can, however, now say that stopping by the RED booth this year will be a good idea... thanks to the effort of our entire team.

I'm getting old and this stuff is getting pretty nerve-racking. But we will make it. So should you.

Standing by to have my wallet start hurting. Wish I could be there. Looking forward to the new gear.

 

[brett ogden]

See you there Jim!

 

[Frank Cueto]

Will be there. I am bringing my desire to buy that laser projector, make sure you bring the machine to process my credit card =)

 

[David Collard]

The auxiliary Pez dispenser was my idea. Just sayin'.

Be sure to have a cold beer or two and a cigar on hand.

Red Rocks.

Respectfully yours.

 

[PatrickFaith]

I'll be there for surez, appreciate all your hard work.

All very exciting news! I will be missing NAB and was hoping this year would be my first one. I will be in production (first AC) all April/May on a feature here in Ontario Canada, shooting RED ONE MX!(DP - Michael Jari Davidson, CSC) A good reason to miss NAB, but I just hope the Red booth coverage is good so I can see all the amazing offerings of Red.

The efforts are well appreciated, by many! Thank you.

I'll be late to NAB and it is all your fault, Jim...

....because I have to meet with a producer who is flying into CO that weekend to bring a multimillion dollar project to my modest state.

...which would never have happened if you had not had this hare-brained idea to invent this crazy-ass camera.

What a short, strange trip it's been!

Looking forward to hearing about what is cooking in the RED kitcen. The main course has been quite tasty.

What's for dessert?

When dragon is ready, so am I.

 

[Phil Holland]

99% of the reason I'm heading over to NAB is for what Red will be unveiling. First stop on the first day. Can't wait. I know the bees have been busy in the hive.

Jim, you're around my pops age. You lose that first step, but the mind becomes three times as deadly.

 

[Mark Toia]

Your ten years older than me and look younger than me... Your doing something right mate.

Good luck Red team. Look forward to seeing what your about to launch.

 

[lumiere]

Aw man! I really wish I could make it. When Jim talks like this, it's usually gonna be good...

 

[Alexander Thomson]

Me and my team will be there! Looking forward to it!

[Justin O'Neill]

We'll be there! There isn't much in this world that could keep me away from the RED tent on opening day of NAB.
