your cameras (my camera) is on The Hobbit! - effin surreal to say the least. thanks for making it possible
 
SOO excited to see these movies..... And Jim, honored to be in the room with you tonight. Can wait till my Scarlet arrives :)
 
Brilliant video by Peter and great publicity for RED. You need to get a few Scarlets down there for 4K BTS footage!

:)
 
Amazing - At last we can concentrate on improving our skill instead of working around the limitations of the equipment we use. The gear is here ready, perfected. We just have to let it loose and work hard. Well done RED. You certainly outdid yourselves.
 
Free advertisement! Not that Red really needs it, but great that Peter Jackson acknowledges how big of a fingerprint Red will make on these films.
And just wow, I'm gonna have a camera with the same sensor which was used on The Hobbit - the prequel to my three very favorite movies!
 
Just Amazing.

Jim you must be a very happy and proud man seeing what Peters up to.

A huge thank to you and Team RED for Scarlet, waited sooo long but far far exceeded all my expectations. Ordered mine just as soon as l could get through
the site problems from a few hours ago.

Best wishes and thank you.

I became as passionate about Movies, and absolutely give my heats off to PJ to take time and do this, thanks PJ, see you soon in NZ!!

Also what He has done here in this #4 installment of the Video BTS Blog is give areal inside on RED EPIC, and the world of 3D, beautiful,
Credit DO to were Credit is DO, and here PJ gives it all to RED... Love it!!


Can't wait to do my small part during the shooting of our first Film in Florence... ;)
 
New SpaceCam RX Epic 3D System Shooting Aerials on Hobbit.

New SpaceCam RX Epic 3D System Shooting Aerials on Hobbit.

We are very pleased that the new SpaceCam RX gyro stabilized Epic 3D system was chosen to film all the aerials on Hobbit. The system is performing flawlessly and for the first time, incorporates a multi-channel fiber optic rotary joint bringing perfect video to the operator's monitors. In fact the image at the control console has been so consistent and faithful that no corrections have been necessary in post at all to this date and the waveform monitor has almost been rendered redundant.
The new SpaceCam RX as used on the Hobbit incorporates remote precision roll of image, straight down pan capability, unlimited helicopter manuveuring, continuous left and right eye monitoring and full motion record tied to same time code as the dual Epic Cameras.
The best to Aerial DP David Nowell and SpaceCam Tech, Andrew Sych. Great job guys.
