Scarlet / Red Newbie

[Rikki Rockett]

I just got a Scarlet W last week. I picker her up at the Hollywood store and buying experience was a very good one. Those guys are super awesome and extremely helpful.

I'm very pumped about it and have been experimenting with various lenses. So far I am liking the Sigma Art lenses. I am also a Leica shooter, but the SL has no mount options for the Red, so I can't share those lenses. (Too bad I sold my M).

Anyway, look forward to getting deeper into the world of Red.

Cheers!

Guess I owe the obligatory fire shots!

Looks good, Rikki! You'll have a lot of fun with your Scarlet-W. I haven't really put mine down since I got it haha.

It's a different headspace working with the Red Camera. I know a camera won't make you a better film maker, however, it opens doors that weren't there before.

I'm still determining the best workflow for me. I have all three major NLE's. I have bounced back and forth between Davinci, Premiere and FCPX for the last several weeks. I am about to commit to FCPX. I have had it in my head that I am not using "real editing software" and that's just ridiculous. It works well so far. Only thing is, I am so damn used to Premiere. I have only cut smaller things on Davinci.
