Been toying around with this idea for a while. Since there was no official Reduser event at NAB this past year, I've had this thought of gathering a select group and spending a long weekend in the woods (location TBD) talking shop, shooting something on RED (Epic, Scarlet, R1, whatever) and having a good time. Some of us have been around for a while, got to know each other a little bit, and I think it could be a fun time.

There would be some logistics to figure out, but I was thinking perhaps December or January if there is interest. I'll check in with some sponsors, and perhaps a BTS video.

I know schedules are always tough to line up, so we'll have to see what the response is like. This would be an invite only event.

Thoughts?

Probably East Coast, but I'm open to suggestions. I know we're all spread out. I'm thinking of a location away from the big lights of the city. Think Vermont, Montana, that sort of thing. Would rent a large cabin.
 
Of course, despite being out in the woods, we would have a kickass post station setup to watch the footage.
 
I'd love to be considered! Sounds like a lot of fun!
 
Thinking something like this but a bit bigger.

Uh, Steve, Montana is not on the East Coast. But I'm up for it! Fun idea.

OK, here's an idea, how about this place: http://www.vermejoparkranch.com/

Yeah, I'm not limiting to East Coast, so it's open to possibilities. The reason I was thinking East Coast is just from an organizational perspective. Organizing the NAB events was always tricky because it was on the other side of the country for me. :-)
 
NIce Steve...great Idea.
Would take a flight.
Jan is good.
Cheers
 
Yeah, I think it could be something special. And I think it's something that could be documented and shared with the community eventually.
 
I'm interested! Especially so, since I may have to miss NAB this next year. :(
 
Steve, I love this idea... I know some really good places in the Southern Appalachians. I'm also good friends with a park ranger in Southern California. Even if I can't make it I'd be happy to try to help you guys get something set up :)

Well if it's invite only then I'm out - can't seem to stay on the Island (wink wink). You know what Scott Kelby does with his still photo educational/mini trade-show road tour is a concept that I would like for RED to explore. The proof of concept for a road show could be this retreat where there is classroom instruction (REDCine Certification ?!?!), 3rd party vendor displays / presentations, user round table discussions and perhaps a film festival where we can hand out awards to each other like they do in Hollywood. Central US might be best, like Denver area. Boulder is nice anytime of year and is close enough to the Mts if some folks want to go skiing after. Got a major airport there that flies direct from/to most cities.
 
Steve I'd like to help out. Have some ideas. Let's talk about it.
 
Sounds like a great idea, you guys are lucky to have such cool locations to choose from, for me it would be desert, desert, desert, motorway, or desert.
 
Lots of potential here :-)

Love to know more. How long are you imagining? Like a long weekend? Fly in Thursday night, fly out Sunday or Monday?
