  • 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 :)

Questions..?

Those of you who are worrying about what comes after Dragon totally crack me up. Most of you have only had your Epic or Scarlet for a few months and probably still haven't explored all of its capabilities. This is even more true because of the big changes coming from the firmware releases that Jarred discussed earlier in this thread.

Dragon won't come out for many months (that's for Epic, who knows when it will be out for Scarlet) and the world of RED has a way of changing as products develop. Speculating about what comes after an as-yet unreleased product is so absurd that I have to laugh when I read these comments. Which part of Jim's signature line "Everything in life changes... including our camera specs and delivery dates..." don't you understand?

Jarred,

Thanks for the great thread, and taking the time to do this. It's really appreciated. I've been trying to keep up!

Quickie non-tech/product question for you.

Trademarks.

I know you guys are gung ho on protecting the RED trademark, and I understand why. So no use of 'RED' in business names etc.

Fair enough, loud and clear.

How about depictions of an actual RED camera? Photographs, drawings, sketches etc. on, say, letterheads, websites, and business cards?

Any restrictions there?

Thanks

Mike

We have design patents on most of our stuff.. so depictions are still protected.. but if you want to do something, just send me an email and ask :)

After NAB It is cloudy out there in the market... a sea of stuff. At first.. I thought it was going to be easier for the customers.. more choices. But then i realized its actually getting harder.

I left NAB with pretty much the same feeling. I am utterly confused about some the newer bodies, codec choices, price points, and general logic from some manufacturers. So much is up in the air with a lot of that development. Much of which won't get wrangled into something concise for at least another year, perhaps even two if they adhere to their consistent incremental yearly camera body releases.

It is funny that what is big news "today" for many others is stuff that Red has been doing for 5 years now. And yet they fell short of even the Red One's earliest specs. Red has an established raw 4k+ workflow and desired by industry professionals. With what Dragon specs we know, it's exceptionally clear to see who is leading the industry and pushing forward with technology.

As confused as I was with what was at NAB, I left feeling pretty damn secure being on this side of the fence.
 
Are there any news about a RED proxy module -
or was it eventually kicked from the priority list?

THanks Jarred for all the info...are you guys still going to enable the stills feature or is that pushed into the back burner.

There is already a bunch of discussion of that in the thread. 'Search Thread' function might help you find it :)

Yes. In 2 weeks we are releasing a pretty monumental build for Scarlet and Epic... Apart from a bunch of other goodies, additional resolutions will appear... including the high frame rate 1K on scarlet.

Thats an understatement :) you have one of the biggest and best post production houses in HK, and have worked on films for the likes of Steve Sodebergh, amongst others! :) if someone deserves to beta test in this side of the globe, it's Percy!
 
Is Your offer still good?

Jarred Land said:
I will answer 10 more... make them good... Just don't ask about pricing or delivery dates... :)

If So i have 5 Question's for you.

1.Is there Anything still in backorder?


2.If so Can we have A backorder Update?


3.How is the Development of the RedRay and The RED Projector coming along?
(Not asking for Time-frame or Price Just to see if you guy’s got 4K working?)


4.How is Dragon Development coming along? :)


5.What Job would you do other then being President of RED?


Silly Question but this is the Question there Right?


How many Red camera’s do you Own?


I understand if you Can't answer all the Question's But i had to ask...;)

 
Will you guys at some point allow other display manufacturers to make Red touchscreens?
 
1) What is the future of RED PRO PRIMES? Are you redesigning a new series? And if so, will they be smaller and cover FF, as some have suggested/hoped? RPP "Super Speeds" if you will...

2) What maximum FPS are you envisioning with DRAGON on the epic? 500fps? 750fps?

3) How are you guys adjusting to a world of improved low-light performance? If the DRAGON does have a native 3,200 ISO (a number Ive stumbled on once on these boards this past month)...won't this also mean a future of perpetually shooting with ND? Is RED coming up with some innovation for this? Because if DRAGON is 3,200 ISO, then...who knows what the NEXT sensor will be. 12,800 ISO???

4) Is there a schedule for the advanced Timelapse settings being enabled? So that more "dragged shutter" exposures across multiple seconds can be selected?

5) Will RED ever create it's own 3D rig customized for the Epic/Scarlet?

Jarred answered this in a recent thread, I'm certain, although I seem to have misplaced the link. He said (or words to that effect) RPPs had gone out of stock due to unexpected demand, a new production run was going to be made but it would take some considerable time and they would be in backorder for a substantial period, and that there were going to be no *new* RED lens designs anytime soon. So more of the same primes, eventually, is how I read it.
