"Over the Front"... BTS

[Shawn Nelson]

great stuff! Thanks for sharing Jim, btw, many make a big fuss of the standard RED production pack, but as you can see even PJ uses it!

ciao

he's not using the red baseplate and dovetail, which is where most of the griping goes .

It is cool to see PJ operate! Gives me a good reason when directing to operate myself, though my DPs may not like it

No He is not, but in the last picture He is using the RED handles, RED production pack style, that is what I meant.

ciao

I'm curious where the location of the shoot is.

 

[Tony Lorentzen]

Gotta love the fact that in a few of those shots he's running the cameras from external power, though he still has the batteries on the rig?!

 

[Hodges Usry]

Stellar pictures. I'm Lovin' it.

Balance?

Thanks for the pics Jim. And thanks PJ for being so cool; did a marathon of LOTR extended edit the other night. Phew.

[Tony Lorentzen]

Balance?

Possibly - maybe combined with convenience of already having the battery on when going to hand held mode.

 

[DAVID BARKAN]

is that really a 3D rig? so why only that shot?
or is something like, running two cameras with different lenses or maybe different Frame rate?

cheers

Isn't PJ shooting Tintin in RED 3D? Maybe he's just getting a feel for it.

According to the following article, he has been considering 3D for 'Dam Busters' and shooting test:-

I am picking Hood Aerodrome near Masterton in the province of Waiarapa, NZ.

 

[Jon Howe]

Man, I love this behind the scenes stuff. It's so much fun for me to see how the 'real pros' work. Thanks for posting these Jim!

And if for any reason, you have a date for when you're going to announce Scarlett/Epic I wouldn't mind that too. : )

 

[Dominic Cochran]

The funny thing is, I bet Peter doesn't complain about the tiny things that so many people on this forum scream and shout about. That's worth thinking about.

That would be even funnier if it was true. Details are important.

Nice pics!

 

[Corrado Silveri]

Jim, I'm proud of you...

 

[Roberto Lequeux]

So that's how he got in such great shape! :thumbsup:

 

[JanneJansson]

Looks like Crossing the Line.

:iagree:Maybe we see the feature length film soon

 

[Emiliano Ranzani]

Am I the only one wishing he will finally do BAD TASTE 2 on RedOne? That would be cool...even though, considering the original was shot on a lightweight Bolex, he should use the Scarlet...

 

[J. Eric Camp]

For some reason the boom op in the first frame is cracking me up

You're not the only one : lol: at first, I almost got the impression he had been photoshopped in the frame!

He's totally channeling Flight of the Conchords. Ahhh those New Zealanders.
