| Thoughts on the THE RED ONE DIGITAL
CINEMA CAMERA - by Jeremy Osbern I've been using the RED ONE since April 2008. I've long been a hold out, believing that film would remain the best source for shooting beautiful images, but the RED has definitely won me over. I've worked Super 16mm and 35mm film for years, and love the organic feel of celluloid, but there is definitely something to be said about knowing "what you see is what you get" while shooting. Here's what RED has to say about the RED ONE ( text taken from www.RED.com ): "The RED ONE™ body – designed for
flexibility and functionality. Weighing in at 10 lbs, this is a
streamlined package specifically designed to maximize your shooting
options. Matched with a 35mm PL lens mount, it allows you to take
advantage of the world’s finest optics. Modular and upgradeable, the
RED ONE™ camera is a future-proof acquisition system you can build
upon. RED ONE™’s modular design means you can upgrade with us as we add
new features and accessories, as well as benefitting from performance
improvements with each new free firmware upgrade.
"PIXEL SHIFTING & UPREZZING NOT SPOKEN HERE "Typical high-end HD camcorders have 2.1M pixel sensors and record with 3:1:1 color sub-sampled video at up to 30fps. RED offers the Mysterium ™ Super 35mm cine sized (24.4×13.7mm) sensor, which provides 4K (up to 30 fps), 3K (up to 60 fps) and 2K (up to 120 fps) capture, and all this with wide dynamic range and color space in 12 bit native RAW. At 4K, that’s more than 5 times the amount of information available every second and a vastly superior recording quality. In addition, you get the same breathtaking Depth of Field and selective focus as found in film cameras using equivalent 35mm P/L mount lenses. Mysterium ™ boasts greater than 66db Dynamic Range thanks to its large 29 sq. micron pixels. And 12,065,000 pixels deliver resolution that can only be called Ultra High Definition. "RED ONE IS A MODULAR DESIGN "Shoot lightweight EFP style (body around 10 lbs., in rugged aluminum alloy) or load it up to shoot a feature film. Options include RED-RAIL™ mounting accessories that “grow” the camera body. Configure for tripod, crane or long lens applications. High-resolution RED LCD and EVF monitors come equipped with advanced tools for framing, exposure and focus. The RED ONE™ body and RED-RAIL components provide numerous mounting points to allow hundreds of optional RED and third party accessories… some that haven’t even been dreamed of yet. Choose between the convenience and durability of recording directly to Compact Flash, in-camera, or outputting signal to RED FLASH DRIVE or RED DRIVE (RAID) for even longer recording options." |

| Thoughts on TIMELAPSE /
LANDSCAPE
PHOTOGRAPHY - by Jeremy Osbern I'm a huge fan of working in the fast paced world of film production. A set is like a second home to me, and it's thrilling to plan out your day, working on time to get all the shots that are needed to tell a story. But every now and then a project will come along that requires a fair amount of Timelapse photography, and I welcome the challenge that comes with this type of cinematography as well. Timelapse is the process of capturing subtle events that are happening in the world around you - a thunderstorm, or a moving train; the clouds passing over the mountains, or a plants in the wind. The world is ever changing, but sometimes we are moving too fast to see it. With Timelapse photography, one can sit back and watch the world go by as you capture every detail. It's a lot of fun to work on timelapse projects both in the city, or out in the middle of no where. It's a chance to slow down and reflect while practicing your craft. How many professions can say that? Timelapse photography, in essence, is the art of taking one frame at a time, over a long stretch of time. The most basic example of Timelapse photography would be to imagine a sunset: using a film camera with an intervalometer, or a higher end digital camera - like the RED ONE - you capture one frame every second over the course of an hour long sunset. If we're recording at a playback speed of 24 frames per second, the final sunset will playback for us over the course of 2 and a half minutes. There are a lot of uses of Timelapse photography, both as transitions or editing devices in feature-length narratives, or as a visual impact in a 30-second spot. |
