FILMGEAR VS. ARRI and my "FreeHELP" to REDusers

[KETCH ROSSi]

Hi all,

I imagine that every one of as is dreaming to the moment of having the Red on hand to start shooting our projects.

I for sure Am,

the difference from all of you and I is that my days are very limited, so I intend to make every minute count, and Jim's creation will make this so much easier and better in many ways He will never know.

Now as far as this post, I have a package of Filmgear Tungsten's and like them way better then Arri's fixtures, first they are much nicer in color and loocks in general and second they do fill more stroctured and firm in the build quality and continuity in the desin and lenses controll.

My post also stand to do what I can to give to you the Help that Jim is indirectly giving me with His camera, so I invite all of the Fellows Redusers to consider this fixtures and if in need I' Am willing to consider Helping those of you that can not afford to by or to rent a Tungsten package.

This is what I have now:

1) 12k
4) 5k's
4) 2k's
6) 1k's
6) 650's
6) 300's
10) 150's

this are all Tungsten Fresnel's lamphead fixtures.

So, you are most welcome to share your projects needs for lighting, and if I can I will help you with great plager.

Ciao,

First of all you are being very gracious with your offer. But, as I was reading from another thread, I was hoping the hospital days were behind you. Well, Ketch, whatever you are going through you have my positive thoughts and prayers with you. I wish there was something else I could for you, if there is please pm me.

Cheers,

Andrew

Ketch, that's an amazingly generous thing to offer - and a great lighting package - and if I were based in CA I would certainly take you up on it!

As I'm based in the UK, all I can do is second Andrew's wonderful sentiments and wish you all the best in your life and recovery...

Yours,
Dom.

[Mike the beginner]

Ketch. I hope that all goes well for you. I repeat what Andrew says too. In fact i shall think about you when i am at mass on Thursday, you never know!

I like your positive attitude though, keep your head up and i wish you great times ahead with the red one.

Hi Andrew B, Mike and Dominic,

I appreciate very much your support, I feed on positive energy from people like you and the fact that I consider everything possible no matter wath is my drive, see I was getting frustrated of the impossible pricing of cameras like the Viper at a price tag of nearly $85,000.00 and still a 2/3 format or the price tag of rental for the D20 by Arry or the Dalsa Origin, no way I was going to make it atr this prices, but here comes Jim and makes my day with the RedOne camera, so you see allways is good to have hopes, no matter wath.

As far as my offer it comes with sincerety and in following the exeple given by many good people that care about helping dose in need, you will never know wen is your turn, well I do, I did wen I was to die and my sister Angel give me one of Her Kidneys, and here I' Am tryng to make a difference in the world of indipendent filmmaking.

Ciao,

Ketch, your words are a true inspiration to us all. If we all live by your example then we would attain all that is important.

I wish you the best of luck, the spirit is a powerful thing - it dictates all that matters including matter itself. He who has a why can bear almost any how.

And I think we as a whole on this RED forum are SO lucky to have passion. We all are passionate about something or another and I consider this a sublime fortune that not many people have. The reason i spend so much time on this darned forum is because I feel it.

Ketch, thank you for the inspiration of positive thought against negative experiences. I don't doubt for a moment that someone of your obvious strength and determination will make a great difference to many, many lives - whether through your art or simply through your existence and influence upon your peers...

Sometimes the hardest moments in life can be the most beautiful, if you but look for the positive amongst it all - I wish you all the best now and forever, in everything you do.

Here's to Ketch!!!

[KETCH ROSSi]

Ace..., Big... and Dominic...,

This is stunning, Ketch. I have nothing but the best wishes for you. Can't wait to meet you in Vegas.

[Hrvoje Simic]

I'm sending the most positive energy to you, man.

[Bruce Allen]

Wow, Ketch. Let's all hope that you get better soon and are so busy running around making films with your Red and your cool lighting kit that you don't have time to lend it to anyone!

Hope your week goes well, man. You sound like a generous guy with a great spirit. If you can get just a little bit of that into your films, they'll be a gift to your audience.

I have to reflect the same sentiments and positive energy. Ketch, I wish you all the best and may you keep the positive attitude. That is so very important. I help care for a family member with cancer and I see how easy it can be to lose the positive outlook. Stay focused, stay positive - the body can overcome a great many things if the spirit is willing.
