Free gifts running out!

FYI: That "little free gift" I've been sending with all the 1st orders are starting to run out! (Yikes) If you have not yet ordered, then hop to it, and I will send one along.


Thanks for all the support!

It's great. I love the info buttons when they come up. Good touch. I bought a Gearnex gear head because of it. Very good info. Over all grade for the DVD101 is an "A"

To be an "A+" I would like to see some examples of simple set ups and choosing iso, shutter, fps, etc. and talk about the outcome. I found some obscure video of Ted from RED talking to this guy in London about the RED and they were using one set up outside by a river. I learned more in that conversation he had than many so called tutorials out there.
He showed how to use the spot meter and what the numbers mean, etc. How you can't shoot the RED like video and why. Then he SHOWED why. Some times I think people talking about the RED assume all of us who own them have been to film school. There are a lot of us who own them who need some basic training. I wish they wouldn't assume we know stuff.
I like that you were elementary with your approach, hence "101"
I would just like to see via examples of how to shoot with RED effectively. Some basic shot set ups that will be full proof to get a good shot. (aside from artsy fartsy stuff) I would like to buy and use a color chart, but I don't know how or what I'm looking for when I shoot the chart.
Bottom line is I'm the creative director type who happens to own a RED. I use FCP to edit and I know my way around that pretty well. I'm one of those guys who just needs to know how to drive the car. I don't need to know the theory behind how the engine works nor do I desire to get under the hood and work on the engine. (that's why I like Apple Computers) When I get behind the RED I just want to be able to drive the thing. I understand that you HAVE to know SOME theory, but for things like the color chart, I think I can understand the basics if I was simply told each step involved. Sorry for the long explanation.
I love your product. Please make more and I'll purchase them. Thanks for listening.
If you know someone who can simply explain how to use a color chart, I would love to buy the book or DVD. Thanks. Keep up the good work.

Hi Jay, I was just wondering - how much of the DVD is applicable to the R1 only? Or another way of putting it, how much of this DVD can I apply to using the Scarlett or Epic? Would it be better to wait for the other Scarlett/Epic versions to come out, or would purchasers of this DVD now get some kind of a discount when the other versions come out? Thanks.

Hmmmm...The DVD is for those interested in the R1 and how it works / goes together / accessories.

We DO offer a LOT of information on accessories for the R1, AND we let you know if the accessories we review will work on Scarlet and Epic.

Nevertheless, if you are thinking of buying this DVD only for the information it gives you for Epic / Scarlet, then I woudl advise against that. It won't do you justice.

Hope this helps.
 
I really enjoyed this as a chance to see equipment I don't get to work with. It also gave me some good idea on what I need to really help round out my package. Thanks a lot!

If your computer has a DVD player then you can play it. This is the best way to use it anyway as there are some DVD-ROM extras on the disk that are only accessible via a computer anyway.
 
Mitch is dead on about this.. He also one of the few that took the time to notice the EXTRAS on Disc One.. I wonder sometimes if anyone has seen this stuff?

It's a region ZERO DVD...So it should work on almost anything.

But Mitch is right.. Playing it on a computer may give you the most back.

If you're going to be that honest about your product then I want to learn from you. I just submitted a request to order one.
 
Jay A. Kelley said:
Yeah I was a little confused... This is a "Basics" DVD and someone like you or Gibby are pretty far beyond that.

It's all good!

Okay Jay in the good spirit of supporting the great work you put in to this, I just ordered a copy of your DVD.

I know it will teach me a think or two any way, and it will make a good gift to a friend fellow RedUser.
 
Red101 DVD

Red101 DVD

Our order will be under the name Jameson. Just updated it to two dvds instead of one. We have multiple users of our cameras and need an extra. Thanks for making this training tool available. Based on the reviews here it sounds like a great product at an affordable price.
 
I has finished watching the DVD and I must say that it is very well put together and very informative. He love the Info button part where you can click and get better understanding of certain stuff he was teaching about. I also like the fact that he showed different 3rd party gears one can use with the Red one.

Speaking of third party, JAy can you recommend some cool lights LED kits for someone setting up a studio to interior and exterior shooting. I noticed you are using them to light up your set. So can you give me the configurations you think are necessary to have as a kit. I am kinda confused on how whether to go with 5600k Flood or 5600 spot or 3200 Spot or 3200 flood. And how many i might need as a start up kit.. Also, are the HMI 1200 a must have at this point.

I am asking you all these cos I see you recommended them on your DVD.
