  • 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 :)

Prometheus...

Production hands out delivery specs at the beginning and that's how everyone will work/deliver their shots.

Yeah, I know. But I'm not so bold as to predict or assume what those specs are. Every show is different, and there are those who like to push the envelope.
 
Does anyone know what lenses were used on this picture? MP...or special lenses?
 
IMDb says:
Red Epic, Zeiss Ultra Prime and Angenieux Optimo Lenses
 
I just got my tickets for midnight June 1st in London!!!!! Prometheus has landed!
 
I have a feeling people in the US are gonna be trying to dodge spoilers for the week leading up to its release here.
 
There have been several key moments in RED's history. Prometheus is certainly one of them.

I was pretty satisfied with just the taste of the trailer. Bring on the main course and leave the aspertaime at home baby!

Officially, my NDA has expired, so yes, I have seen Prometheus. I won't predict a global phenomenon like I did with Avatar, but this thing will knock the socks off of any serious film enthusiast. I won't talk about the plot, except to say that is, thanks god, adult and complex, without allowances in stupidity for the 18-25 male crowd. Then, given the original premise upon which the film got off the ground, some great ideas and themes have been lost or toned down, and it is not as provocative as it is terrifying, but still, stimulating and enjoyable. In terms of image quality, I will say that I think it is the best looking RED material I have ever seen, downright amazing visually. This will be the best calling card for Epic until the Great Gatsby comes out. Typical of Riddley, beautiful dark and bright areas alternating constantly through the frame, and the Epic's wonderful "subtle super saturation" that is the camera's best attribute in my opinion. Amazing visuals, great cinematography and beautiful colors. And yes, you'll get to know where the space jockey came from.

Thanks for the info Rudi. You've just elevated the film for me from "must see" to "I need those day 1 tickets!"
 
I'm counting down the minutes till Thursday night here in London.
