  • 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 :)

Who's shooting a feature this year?

We can start off with updates by redusers on the feature they will be shooting for the year 2007, and 2008, with synopsis, movie info, some of their profiles etc, and what kind of resources that they are looking at. Interested parties can then make contact and try to work things out.

Many business trade fairs has a business matching section, and we can emulate what they are doing here on the forum.
There are hundreds of companies owner here on Red, there will definitely be an opportunity to work closer for each other benefit as we already share something in common.

Taking Red again as an example, Jim created a tool that will benefit a lot of independent filmmakers, at the same time creating a feasible business model out of it, generating sustainable revenue for the Red Company, and ultimately providing a win-win situation for all. We now have access to the high quality production tool that was once only exclusively owned by Hollywood filmmakers alike.

The final thing that is lacking is the distribution network to get the films out. The barrier to distribution is there, it's up to the indies on how to get pass them. The big guys has the network, we can start building ours if the will is there. Or we can continue to depend on them.
 
Well if the first 100 cameras are going to be available in late May, I would be very interested in hooking up with someone for our June feature shooting in Mississippi and Louisiana. Any real DP's out there in the reservation list?
 
I'm reservation holder 87, #87 for short. I'm a willing participant to any reservation holders wanting to shoot. If your an experienced DP, or would like access to the camera please contact me.

Oh- I almost forgot. I will be shooting two features this year. The first is scheduled for mid May.
 
If anyone is shooting a feature, short, commercial, etc, in So Cal this year, and is looking for an "HD tech" -- someone to help with the 4k workflow -- let me know. I'd probably do it for free just to learn the best way to work with this type of footage. I think I had a decent HVX/720p workflow, but 4K/REDCODE RAW will be something new. It was nice having a person on our HVX set who only dealt with footage, storage, encoding, etc, to free up the crew from such worries.

Just putting it out there, since I will be eager to get on a 4K Red set ASAP.
 
I'm hoping to be shooting something before the end of the year...if we can complete pre-production by then.
