    The Big RED Secret...

    The secret is... we have no idea what we are doing. We are learning as we go. And we are just dumb enough to expose every move we make in front of God and everyone.

    We shoot high... really high. 5K at 120fps in a camera the size of a matchbox. Have you seen anyone else tackle this? There is probably good reason. They are not insane. We apparently are. And there is more of this on the way...

    So the secret is out. Choose your partner. Choose the one that leads with their chin or choose the others that follow only because they were forced to.

    We are not perfect. But we are brave. We believe that everything must get bigger in presentation. And smaller in size. And cheaper. And better.

    Thanks for your support. It keeps us going...

    Jim

    "The camera is arguably one of the most important of all inventions… it is the single tool that has the ability to stop time, record history, generate art, tell stories, and communicate messages that transcend language like nothing else ever conceived."

    Jim, I just posted a reply to someone in a thread about whether Red would be tackling live video production with a ccu unit in tthis thread here that goes, I think, to the heart of what Red is. The post is here: http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthr...876#post962876 but the gist of it is this - if you had set out to make live broadcast production then that field would already be being revolutionized by your products. If you set out to do so in the future, it won't be an add on to existing red technology to work with the existing infrastructure, but a new proposition altogether that changes the way that industry works.

    Because otherwise, I have a feeling you wouldn't see the point of doing it.

    Keep doing what you don't know how to, because that's how progress is born.

    There's also that new camera you rascally rabbits released that's in the $15k range and tops cameras in the $80k and up range. Cause, you know, that's pretty impressive too :)
