RED Users in Toronto

[IAN SUN]

Howdy all you RED Heads Lets paint old Hog Town RED!
I believe Boothba had suggested a get together this month. Maybe we can get together to discuss among other things market positioning, ie. rental pricing, not suggesting collusion or anything ;)

Anyone with a good location?

I'm in. And my partner on Red #562 would probably come too.

[IAN SUN]

Excellent Sean. Who else?

[Alex Boothby]

Thanks for reminding me Bro! Unfortunately I have to go to New Zealand for a Budweiser shoot next week (poor me) and I'm fricken' swamped for a couple of weeks after that... Don't know if we can delay for a bit?

I do think a local group is going to be sooooo valuable for backup gear, technical (and moral) support, Redcine services, etc. This is especially true for anyone (at any time) thinking of renting out their Red. I also think that most Red-users seem to be great, forward-thinking folks, so it should be fun.

Anyway, if you guys decide to meet in the short term please send me a PM or email at alexboothby@yahoo.com. If nothing happens by the end of March I will send out an official invite or something.

Cheers
Alex Boothby

Thanks guys 5 of us so far by my count. Sounds like its rounding out to early April, couple of weeks before NAB.
I'm heading to Vegas, any one else going? I think we'd probably want to wait for Alex and his wealth of knowledge to return from Middle Earth to have a formal meet. But it would be great to get together before NAB.

What about Glenn Chan? haven't seen him post in a while.

There is a workshop for the SI-2K cam at PS on Valentines day, (Wed Feb 14). I'm going in the morning (got to check out the competition first hand ). Would be cool to see you guys there. We could have a cuppa after and do a debrief.

PM me if you plan to check it out.

I live very close to PS Production Services. I'll definitely go check out the SI-2K if there's still room in the morning demonstration session.

Sounds good.

I'm definately down for April (hopefully) but my schedule is all over the map.

Trying to get things all arranged so i can take some time with the little lady (RED) when she arrives.

Hey, I'd be interested. I plan on going to the SI seminar (the second later session), so maybe I'll run into some of the other Redheads there.

2- When Red is shipping, I'm sure someone can convince Graeme (Nattress) to fly to Toronto for a Red demonstration, i.e. at a FCP user's group meeting or a SMPTE meeting. Just a subtle hint to Graeme here. ;)

I second that! I second that! Or maybe at an event (...?) where we can get a bunch of production companies, indie film makers and ad agencies in attendance.

How 'bout it Graeme? ...at least in principle.
