RED shot movies at AFM


AFM is coming up in a couple weeks. I know of 5 films at the market that are shot on RED,

one called: Beacon77

http://www.beacon77.com

The another called: The Hole

http://www.dreadcentral.com/story/afm-joe-dantes-the-hole-3d-posters

http://teaser-trailer.com/2009/08/the-hole-movie.html
This is a 3D RED shot movie directed by Joe Dante

I don't know much about Beacon 77 and The Hole, other than I've heard great things about the productions and what I've seen from trailer pieces look really impressive on both these projects.

another is the movie: Repo Chick
(the sequel to the cult classic, Repo-man)
I was lucky enough to visit the set while they were shooting, really cool green-screen cinematography from a master DOP, Steven Fierberg

and yet another is the movie: Hunter Prey
(I've watched this one through various stages of production and post, through the final DI - some of the shots from this movie are in the RED NAB 09 reel. I really, really like this movie, fantastically shot by Ed Gutentag, and masterfully directed by Sandy Collora I can't wait for large audiences to see it.)

and another is the movie: Splinterheads
We screened this movie when I was in Mexico a while back, and it's been a big hit a a number of festivals worldwide - it's a great, super funny comedy, if you like this kind of screwball laugh out loud movie, you will dig Splinterheads

Considering that AFM is screening 445 movies and 73 of those movies are world premieres, we have to figure that there is a significant amount of those movies shot on RED, more than these 5 that I know about.

For any of those here checking out the forum that worked on a movie that was shot on RED, that is screening at AFM, or the AFI fest that is one of the partner events of AFM, please let us know here, so we can track it, etc.

Thanks

Repo Chick & Hunter Prey

Repo Chick & Hunter Prey

Thanks for the mention Ted. Two mentions. Both Hunter Prey and Repo Chick where the perfect films for the RED.

Hunter Prey was shot all daylight (if you can call 117° Mexican desert 'daylight') except for one night scene, with three small lights powered by the solar house we lived in on the beach. There was occasional overheating but cold packs and three camera bodies kept us rolling. There would have been no way to do this feature using film with the small crew we had. As difficult as some of the locations were, that shoot is one of my favorite film experiences.

Repo Chick was shot 98% on greenscreen, the VFX team at Phil Tippett Studios was pleased and amazed at how easily the backgrounds just laid right in with very little adjustment. The only issue encountered was an Actress with a mound of very teased hair... RED hair at that. Eric Leven who supervised the VFX, and his team, have done an amazing compilation of looks and locations, none of which actually exist. Again one of my favorite experiences, but this one on stage.
By the way, Repo Chick is not a sequel but a stand alone film, very much different from Repo Man. And, it has a great sound track too.


Here are Behind the Scenes Youtube links. The following link gets the VFX story on REPO CHICK:

And Eric Leven on stage making sure there will be as few issues as possible during the shoot:

Please note, there are some graphic scenes and frontal nudity...so consider yourself warned.

Looks like a very good thriller and already getting lots of critical acclaim.

"Amphibious" a 3D horror/monster movie , directed by Brian Yuzna I shot this summer will be there as well, only as a teaser, but shot on 2 reds......

 

[TedRed]

Now we are talking... I had a feeling when this thread got seen by some more RED folks around the world there would be more and more of these movies at AFM shot on RED we discover. I'll willing to bet there are a considerable amount more at the fest.

The Smell of Success is another one that will be at AFM - this is the Polish Bros movie starring Billy Bob Thornton and Tea Leoni shot by David Mullen. (I know about this one as they just finished the DI Grade and prep for filmout at LightIron)

Some more updates. When I was screening RepoChick at AFM, I also saw that the movie SnowMen is screened at AFM... from what I've seen of this one, it's going to be a crowd favorite:
