  • 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 :)

Portland, Oregon?

I'm a UO student in Eugene, and I'm itching to get some on set experience. I've never worked on a set before, but I'd willing cart the coffee around for free if someone has any opportunities in Eugene or the Portland area this summer.

I fall into this category as well. We're currently shooting some short pieces with a 5D II, but will hopefully have a Scarlet in our hands by this time next year. I'm still working on crossing over from the still photography world, and I'm trying to learn as much as I can about the Red workflow in the meantime.
 
Portland, OR based DIT

Portland, OR based DIT

Hi all,

I've talked to many of the Oregonians on this board but have never officially listed myself in this thread. So here it is:

My name is Sean. I'm a Portland based DIT, DMT, and post production supervisor. I recently upgraded my kit for the feature "Golf in the Kingdom" which shot in Bandon, Oregon. I'm working towards my union feature hours but would like to see the DIT position solidify before I invest in the initiation fee. I'm listed in the OMPA directory, but unfortunately my petition to create a DIT category fell on deaf ears and we are still listed as video engineers. Maybe next year. . .

Anyways, if you are shooting Red in Oregon look me up. I will keep your data safe and your post pipeline flowing smoothly. I'm particularly looking forward to the SB 621 tax break for next year when Leverage (and Crowley) leave town and the money gets spread around a little.

Thanks again, and happy shooting,
 
Shawn, I'll be up in Hillsboro next week for a RED shoot. I'd love to talk about your short you shot and the feature you are putting together.

Hello all, i am just across river from Vancouver...we bought camera behalf my partner, who is in russia now filming some future projects there.i had little expirience on the camera.Would love to learn more, and always up for some day out shooting and just be there and learn..red 3804
 
I'm currently floating between Portland and San Diego but would really like to make Portland home - if there is enough work. Spent last summer shooting a documentary for FuelTV and have been working for various Portland production houses for quite a few years..... would love to move permanently.

Sean (Rawls), we shot that Formula Drift event for Speed channel in WA last year, my first time with the Red.... thanks for solidifying my decision to buy a Red One - I know I chewed your ear off with all the questions from Portland to Seattle and back! :)

So for anybody interested, Red #6783 w/Red 18-50mm and soon more lenses is available to shoot in Portland. (also, getting ready for the Epic upgrade path).

Cheers,

Milan

Hi Shawn.

I'd like to be a part of the group. I'm waiting to get a Scarlet.
I want to learn as much as I can about RED so that I'm prepared when they are available to purchase.
Thanks.

Waiting on me for what? There is no Red community in Portland. There are Red owners who know each other and are friends, then there are the rental houses who interact with us. There isn't enough people to get together for milk and cookies. i meet more Red owners from Portland at Las Vegas NAB then I do here
 
and not to name names, but there are several of the non-rental house Red owners who seem to have zero interest in interacting with the other Red owners. The Red "community" in Portland is more of a bunker mentality. But then there are others who love to meet up, we find each other, it's just not enough to organize anything. Maybe when Scarlet is announced and everyone and their brother, second cousin and dog own one then the 500+ Scarlet owners can get together and talk about workflow and making Sundance movies

I was just noticing how many people here seem to know you (or others named sean spelled shawn. :smiley: )

But it's true, there seems to be only a core group of folks here who interact well and not enough to do any sort of meet and greet. (Thought it might be worth trying it out sometime)
