  • 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 :)

Scarlet and Epic updates...

I am quite sure that the announcement will be called a "scam". Should be a lot of fun to hear the reactions. I can't wait.

Someone has to tell you, sir. You are the meanest CEO on the internet of any camera company...ok, I bet you`re the only one. Nonetheless. You`re mean!!!
 
My insomnia is going to be totally out of control now...Visions of Scarlet dancing in my head...
 
Jim, I'm sure whatever you are trying so hard to keep in will revolutionize everything again. I just hope I can get my grubby little hands on it and use it to keep my department at the school paper on the cutting edge. And get my hopeful future career started. It's because of you that someone like me will have access to the tools to make a film that can go as far as my abilities and vision are able to go.
 
Will it then become clearer how having a Red One will be a bonus to these new camera systems?

That does it... I'm selling all my shares of AIG to buy this camera. Which means, counting my stock losses, the Scarlet will cost me $187,002.

I want to spill the beans sooooooooooo bad. :-)

Jim,
Maybe not spill the beans... but open the lid a little and let a few vapors float round.

Here, it's easy....
We all know the RedOne DR has been measured at 11.3 stops.
Now if I were to say Epic's sensor could resolve at least 12.8 stops, would I be lying?

Dave,
 
I can't even begin to contain my excitement. I just hope all of my ducks are in a row when it happens! :D
 
Jim wrote on another pro forum:

"I am certain that everyone here will have some skepticism about the specs we release.

Please know that we can hit our targets."

So let's take seats, fasten your seat belts, because it's going to be a very exciting ride here at the forum...
 
lol, That's the same day Taco Bell is introducing the "Loaded Beef Nacho" to the menu, the most annoying and complicated item we have to date. (Pretty much put everything you can put on any Mexican food and dump it into a Taco Salad Bowl with chips.)

I think Red's announcement is going to be a lot more exciting.
 
Color me excited.

The things I could see people getting skeptical about, in no particular order:

The resolution.
The price.
The frame rates.
The dynamic range.
The size/shape.
The delivery date.
The post support.

So if Jim says that he thinks we'll be skeptical... I'd imagine that a few of those are getting an eyebrow-raising bump. And if he says that he can deliver... I'd be inclined to believe it.

Let's see what you've got, Jim. There's still a spot on my skydiving helmet for Scarlet and my shoulder for Epic. Bring it on... :)

we […] have learned a lot in the past month or so.

That explains why there have been so few posts ending in "...".

So, the Police came by RED today. Said we were having way too much fun. They arrested Jarred, Matt, Isaac and Groff. I escaped out the back window.

This is outrageous! Obviously Greæme and Justin and Amy and all the others are not having enough fun. Better work on the workplace atmosphere :clown2:

Seriously, though we just paid for our RED One (and 40% more than it would have been 2 months ago - but I am not complaining, still a steal for what we get) I am very much looking forward to the 13th, especially with it not being a Friday.

And love the idea of one of your future projects/products being literally called RED Scam!
 
Couple of quick questions, if you don't mind a newby asking: I'm shooting commercials in the UK on cameras like the Varicam, the Sony hdw-750p and (for lower budgets) the Canon XHA1 with 35mm adaptor. I'm shooting at 25fps, editing with Avid HD, post in After Effects and mastering at SD. My workflow (and software) is all PC. I know the Scarlet, whatever it turns out to be, will be a quantum leap in image quality over the Sony and Canon, but my questions are: will the Scarlet shoot 25fps? And will I have to buy a Mac and switch to FCP?

jesus...for how long do you know about the scarlet? it`s initial specs included 120 fps continuous and 180 fps burst mode, it would really surprise me if these specs did get worse...and they`re still working on a cross plattform plugin for afx & premiere if I`m not mistaken...

So the answer to the last question is yes, then? I *will* have to switch to Mac and FCP?
