Some days off...

[Jannard]

After getting a full update from my attorney on all that went on the past couple of years, I need to take a few days off.

After 36 years of doing business, I have never seen such a thing... and I have seen quite a lot.

Jarred will be here...

Jim

Come and have a holiday in Australia and say hello to Baz (Great Gatsby), I am sure he would appreciate the visit!

 

[Justin O'Neill]

Whoever is ultimately responsible for these things I'm sure they don't have 40,000 passionate followers like you have here. We will miss you Jim. Just be sure to be back by Nov. 3rd!

 

[Jeff Coatney]

Relax and take a load off. I'm sure your Lawyer can do the heavy lifting on this one

 

[C.H.Haskell]

Enjoy it Jim...try not to loose too much sleep on this one.

Enjoy your island Jim. Whatever happened with the "Issue", you have a great crew at your back and an army or artists, techicians and visionaries covering your flanks!\\

Red Leader is cleared for R&R

 

[Russ Fill]

I can't think of a more deserving to come up for air and and take a little time off.
Thank you and see ya soon. Don't do any work related things as you will be doing that after November for a very long time.

 

[Brad Allen]

Thanks for all you do Jim.

 

[Drew Mylrea]

Something that always struck me about Red was its transparency... This forum. The development process. The humility that you have in the grace of your customers.

Your method is unprecedented and cannot be stolen.

Cheers to your time off - you deserve a moment away from all the scrutiny you embrace.

 

[IAN SUN]

Don't take anything that connects to the Internet with you Jim!
Splendid isolation can be so sweet.

We've got your back.

 

[Gunleik Groven]

Take a deep breath!

Enjoy life and those you love!

Shoot some awesome pictures!

See you when you are back.

RED is doing great these days...
Enjoy that.
I was at filmschool here, working on some other cameras material. After working on Epic material since June, that seemed so yesteryear.

You did it, with a little cash, dedication, passion, anger, focus, dedication, obsession, friends, employees, vision, pain and fun...

Have a cigar!

 

[Pascal Scheffers]

Sounds like a good plan. Go find some wisdom.

 

[Antonio Forjaz]

have a great rest Jim, and come back full of strength...

 

[Sabyasachi Patra]

Take care Jim!

Recharge your batteries. You can come to India to do some filming in the wilds.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

 

[alex lemon]

enjoy the rest! come back when you're ready.

 

[Norbert Niederacher]

Take care Jim!

The difference between Red and other companies is that Red builds cameras that they would want themselves, not what they think is going to be most profitable...and that leads to better products.

Just like Apple, the philosophy and vision of Red can never be duplicated or stolen. And no company treats its customers as well as Red.
