RED is at war... which we define as passionate and active opposition to an adversary.

We are at war with conventional thinking.

We are at war with the thought of 1080P being a suitable replacement for film in motion capture or home entertainment display.

We are at war with old business principles, like planned obsolescence, lack of communication with customers, and unfair business practices.

War is good, depending on the target. I think most would agree that a war against disease is just. A war on poverty is noble.

When people get out the microscope and pixel-peep they often lose sight of the big picture. The same thing happens when people focus on a word instead of a concept.

Sounds like an arms race with a happy ending.

I have one question mr president,

Where the fuck do I sign up??

And when the heck will I get my REDMOTE so I can not feel like my EPIC is naked when shooting with HBO.
 
I don't post often, however, today I am compelled to write that I am in 100% agreement with Jim's words. I am so glad that Red is an American company and that it's American know-how that is making this program possible. I am tired of shaking my head in disbelief at how other companies, not just tech companies, but food, pharma, and other Fortune 500 companies treat their employees and customers. It's time for a new, better way...
 
Passion: Making films is all about passion. And when I see such a passionate leader and its team behind making "the" tool that makes films happen, I cannot help but give my full, unconditional support. I want to sign in. Just give a chance!

Fight the good fight.
 
Keep it up Jim. It is this philosophy which made Epic and Red possible, otherwise everyone would have been celebrating release of any better priced 1080p camera.
 
Jim, one big question..

Very vague,

but why?

Why change when everyone is comfy where they are now?

I already own the EPIC and I'm all for change, but I'm in love with change ive been in the film businesss my whole life.. WHY will the masses agree with you, especially when there is little for people to compare too..

Besides upping the level, why change now?
 
make love not war. sorry. but there are just too many people declaring
too many wars on too many things.

how about declaring a camera love train ? totally up for riding it.
kind of already on it.

got my bomb evf today. YEAHHH

I agree 100%. It is so refreshing to see a company that is so devoted to its customers, to producing the best product possible, to extremely high standards, and to transparency. And it is even more amazing to be able to rub elbows, electronically speaking, with its billionaire founder, who is so clearly completely and utterly enthused over what he and his loyal "army" has wrought with ambition, dedication, hard work, and - most importantly - vision. The "vision thing" - the ambition to create something amazing, is in short supply in the world these days. So many people are just looking out for their own. This place is such a refuge. I am not a RED customer yet, but I will be, one day, by damned!
 
i like your attitude jim, it's good to know you guys are on top of this game and passionate about it all the more.
