Great post, Jim. I directed my second short film outside of film school on our Scarlet back in September and we go to camera on my feature directorial debut on the 27th on our Epic. I'm so impressed...

Great post, Jim. I directed my second short film outside of film school on our Scarlet back in September and we go to camera on my feature directorial debut on the 27th on our Epic. I'm so impressed...
Hey, Tom! <3
On a more relevant note, I am not really knowledgeable enough about gear to comment extensively on the pros and cons of the Epic or Scarlet vs. other cameras. I will say that I don't...
I like the Red Pro Primes which our company owns a lot, but our production is considering renting some Cooke S4 lenses in order to get certain focal lengths which that set doesn't have access to...
I'm a director rather than a cinematographer. Most of my works to this point have been comedies: a dark comedy about greed, a farcical comedy about bureaucracy and a weird romantic comedy about the...
That LG monitor looks really excellent. I have some pretty standard 23" ASUS monitors right now and have been considering upgrading them to some 2560x1440 displays for some time. Maybe these will be...
Congrats, Dan! A creative idea, well executed. I like it. :)
As others have said, it comes down to a combination of efficiency (not forcing people to leave set in order to procure food) and camaraderie. Giving people an opportunity to relax, enjoy a good meal...
We are so excited for the Meizler Module. Any information on when the various accessories might be available, Jarred?
I don't think that such a deal exists. What your friend may have been suggesting is that since the accessories are interchangeable the cost of entry for a Scarlet is a lot lower if you're already...
Epic-X #3805 a.k.a. "Hentgen"
We're a family production company based in Toronto and all of us are huge Blue Jays fans so naming our cameras after great, home-grown Blue Jays pitchers seems...
2000 ASA is supposed to be cleaner than 800 on the MX sensor. If it's like what 500 looks like on the MX then that is incredible. I shoot most things at 4k with 6:1 compression at 500 these days....
I'd looked at that page before, but never noticed that the American remake of House of Cards featuring Kevin Spacey is shot on Red. I suppose that I shouldn't be surprised given that David Fincher is...
I'm really excited to start using the Meizler Module and the iPad app. I am sure that they will be great tools.
You are right. My mistake. Yeah, it would be awfully hard to make up $5,500 dollars in just a few short weeks.
As a person who just paid for an Epic (or rather, my brother and I's company did) I...
That's right. One thing to consider for those who purchased their camera between NAB and Thursday's price cut is that you're really getting $10k of your purchase back. You get $6k in savings on the...
Here here. Bryan sent us an invoice for our Epic + Meizler package already. Perhaps the best sales rep I have ever dealt with at any company.
We're in. We'll have our order to you guys this evening. I cannot wait to start shooting on it.
If you're not fussed about having a large sensor than the Panasonic HPX250 looks like a decent option. It's pretty much the most modern version of the old HVX200. The issue is that it records to P2...
Perhaps we will get some more info on this on November 1 when the price reduction announcement comes. We're interested in a Meizler Module, but it would be nice to get more details on these support...
To get things back on track: We were pretty certain that we'd pull the trigger on an Epic prior to this thread, but the reduced price seals the deal. Expect an order for an Epic with Red Armor and...
I would love to submit our short film "Public Service", but there's no way that post is going to be finished by November 9. I don't think we'll even have a picture lock at that point. It's the first...
Yeah, I absolutely LOVE our Scarlet and we plan to upgrade to an Epic soon enough (and then to Dragon), but people here seem to straight up make up negative things about other cameras (or at least...
Nice video, Paul. I'm a huge Blue Jays fan as well so here's wishing your friend success with his career too!
This is awful. What a terrible thing to do to clients and to the people who's work you're taking and presenting as your own. It makes me pretty mad to see someone behaving like this.
This looks unbelievable. It's so impressive that you guys were able to fit this amount of functionality into just one module. Awesome work.
