Quote from Steven Soderbergh...

[Jarred Land]

I'm so loving the RED love.

its a little contagious

This is the first thing on this forum that actually impressed my wife :watsup:

:biggrin:

I don't think his feat in 2000 of being nominated for an Oscar as a director for two separate features in the same year has ever been equaled in the history of the Oscars.

My favorite Soderburg pic is the little known "Limey". I don't think he shot it but it's one of the most striking visual/editorial style combinations I've ever seen.

 

[Craig Bowman]

The reaction from Soderbergh is not unexpected. We have been introduced to Red in a gradual kind of way.

After all of the Red Team's work, imagine anyone worth their salt getting all that Red has to offer hitting them all at once and the knowledge to really appreciate what it means.

Kind of a Red nuclear blast wave effect.

Those that get it do - those that don't, don't
In the next year a bunch of DP's and Producers
will be wondering why they did not land that
last job they were bidding on.

simply awesome quote! Congrats RED team. Cant wait to see the footage!

 

[Finner]

It would be nice to know what kind of experience Steven had with a red camera to prompt the quote.

 

[Friedrich Moser]

Great message from a great filmmaker

I am already anxious to see what he's able to achieve with the RED. Soderbergh's "Kafka" and "Traffic" are among my all-time favourites concerning the visual style, and still years after having seen them I can recall their look.

Using the same gear he does really exites me. :huh:

Steven shot test footage in tough lighting conditions as well as lit charts. He ran the footage through his "machine", then projected 2K Apple Pro-res and 4K, as well as a filmout to a 55' screen. He was pretty happy it seems.

[Finner]

Nice.

Pre-tests for possibly one of the four features some of the beta cameras are headed to?

 

[Jannard]

"Wanted" and Soderbergh's movies are two of the four. We hope to announce the other two soon.

[Clint Johnson]

And how appropriate is it that the "Red" camera will be the one used to shoot two movies about Che Guevara? "The Argentine" and "Guerrilla"?

As a capitalist pig I gotta smile.

 

[Jeff Kilgroe]

I so want my RED One right now...

 

[Clint Johnson]

Wouldn't Wanted, The Argentine and Guerrilla make it three of five if there are still two features under wraps? While both of Steve's features are about Che I do believe they are two separate features no?

 

[Jannard]

OK... 3 of 5.

Now announce that George Lucas has caved and is doing Star Wars 7-9 and it's being shot on Red!!

Please don't.

That is a great quote. This thread is only trumped by the thread announcing the engineering delay is off.

 

[Priyesh P.]

Kalone has a bad German humor ha ha he he heh.

Third man, I was honest, really...
And in retrospect I've discoverered that I know one movie of that guy. That one where the leading role is cast by the cleavage of Julia Roberts

 

[Clint Johnson]

Now announce that George Lucas has caved and is doing Star Wars 7-9 and it's being shot on Red!!

No, but the Star Wars live action TV series that we are going to start shooting in 2008 will be shot with Red cameras.
