  • 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 :)

Peter Jackson Shoots with Red!!!

Peter Jackson is shooting a new movie with WWI airplanes, and this looks to be a nice little preview.
 
According to Steve Gibby's article here http://www.studiodaily.com/main/news/7959.html the Jackson footage showing at NAB will have been graded. I'm curious about who did the grade, what software was involved, and how much time it all took. (obviously not a great deal of time considering the shoot was only a few weeks ago.)
 
Richard Bluck

Hey did anyone look closely at the slate on the RED page? If you look below Peter Jackson's name you can make out the name "Richard Bluck". I did a search and IMDB turned up this:

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0089459/

So apparently he's the second unit DP for King Kong and the LOTR trilogy! Should be sweet to see what the images look like with a guy like him on board! :bleh: :biggrin:
 
Here's more. On the 'tentative shipping schedule' page it sez:

"Please note that the Peter Jackson/RED movie was shot with "Boris" and "Natasha" and NO feature was enabled except 4k REDCODE RAW recording to RED DRIVE. Monitoring was done with a 3rd party 720P LCD. The only button enabled was RUN/STOP."
 
If Jackson did the grade, then Pablo would've been used. If grading was done back at RED HQ, they probably used Scratch. If somebody out there at NAB gets a chance PLEASE ask about Apple's Color and how it will work with 4K Redcode! I'd ask both Red and Apple and see what kind of answers you get. Mike Curtis, I'm looking at you....:ninja:
