RED is excited to introduce price reductions on all our cameras. The move comes after a surprise announcement from RED founder Jim Jannard on REDUSER. Under the characteristic “Everything Changes…” title, Jim stated that:
Leave it to Red Bull to come up with a stunt that’s so far beyond crazy that it becomes a legitimate scientific undertaking. The energy drink brand is sending a man into the stratosphere to freefall back to earth. Felix Baumgartner will be “skydiving” from space. He will fly a balloon to 120,000 feet in the atmosphere and jump from his capsule in a space suit. During his fall, he is expected to break the speed of sound.
Renowned cinematographer Vincent Laforet took to the rooftops to capture the final flight of the Space Shuttle Endeavour as it landed at Los Angeles International Airport last Friday. Vincent shot the landing with a RED EPIC at 5K resolution in slow motion at 96 frames per second. Read his description of the shoot and see photos of his setup at his blog.
RED congratulates Emmy® winners from Louie and Hatfields & McCoys — both shot on RED.
The squealing sound you may have heard earlier this week was the sound of millions of Tolkien and Peter Jackson fans reveling in the release of the second official trailer from Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. The second trailer is a bit darker than the first we saw and focuses on the adventure ahead for Bilbo and the dwarves.
Start your weekend off with a beautiful new peek at this movie. The countdown to December 14th is underway.
Last weekend the second annual Comikaze Expo took over the Los Angeles Convention Center. The expo is Los Angeles’s answer to San Diego Comic Con — a 2-day convention of comic books, movies, and pop culture. This year, former Marvel Comics honcho Stan Lee came aboard as host which added a level of historical significance to the show. RED was on hand to witness the show and document it on a 5K EPIC.
Over the weekend RED made several significant product announcements on REDUSER.net.
RED Digital Cinema is exhibiting at the International Broadcasting Convention in Amsterdam, Netherlands this week. True to form, RED delivered an important presentation today with exciting product news.
Every year, RED Studios Hollywood offers 3 weeks of a filmmaking camp for kids age 9 to 15 known as Camp RED. The first two weeks take place at RED Studios Hollywood. Week 3 is an overnight camp in Malibu. We just wrapped up this year’s Camps and all were a great success. Here’s what happens at Camp RED…
At the NAB Show this past April, RED was proud to present Loom, a short film from Ridley Scott shot on RED EPIC in 3D and starring Giovanni Ribisi. The film was written and directed by Luke Scott, Ridley’s son. RED has been screening that film since NAB. Now, we’re proud to present it online. RED President Jarred Land posted a download link on REDUSER earlier today.
Seeing Loom in 4K 3D on a laser projector is how it was meant to be seen. But as Jarred said, this is “a web version to tide you over till you can get to one of our screenings… which you really need to do.”
