In Living Color
I visited Technicolor in Bangkok today. Met with some wonderful people
(thanks Zoe and Steve) and had a tour of their impressive facilities.
The main reason for the visit was to meet staff and see their workflow
for the Red Camera. I think if you’re in Bangkok, Technicolor is the
de facto place to do your dailies, grading and output. I look forward to
working with them on future projects. We even got some swags
including this cool flash drive! Thanks again to Technicolor and their workflow for the Red Camera.
Be my Tuk Tuk

Filming with the Red Camera on the bangkok sois waiting for the afternoon showers. The infamous tuk tuk that everyone seemingly has to take a picture.
This was for a Kuwait TVC shot on the Red Digital Camera.
Albino Python vs Red Camera
A rare white albino python who didn’t like the heat much. He was always trying to get away. As you can see, I tried
to stay in the background. We could have filmed the snake all day because he was such a beautiful animal. But, alas he
didn’t like being in the sun like most Thais so we gave him a break. 
The Red Camera held up in the even the harshest environment. It was over 40C most of the time and the Red Digital Camera didn’t skip a beat. Mr. Jamal had mentioned in Kuwait, that people in Kuwait were selling their camera because they couldn’t operate in 52C weather. I mention to him that people didn’t operate in 50C weather. We had a good laugh. But good practice is to shade your Red Camera with a umbrella and carry some ice packs just in case. If you running MOS then you should also keep you Red Camera fans turned to HOT. They’ll drain your battery quicker, but they’ll keep you Red Camera cooler.
George of the Jungle
Trekking through the jungle in 90% humidity and around 40C. Sweated my *ss off.
Where’s my AC when I need him! The Red Camera can be heavy under these condition. Heck, the Canon 7D with a 24-70L can be heavy under these condition.
Can you spot the snake?
What’s that behind me?

A client asked us to film a commercial with Dancers, Snakes and Elephants. The spot was filmed with a Red Camera and Zeiss superspeed Lens. The baby Elephant was unbelievable. He/She did everything asked of it. 
Smart and gentle. I have to figure out a way to film more elephants with the Red Camera! Bangkok is amazing place to shoot. It would have cost a lot more money to have done this in LA on Film. This was only setup a day in advance. They walked the baby elephant into the studio and we were ready to shoot. The baby elephant would walk up to the camera department and try to see what this strange Red camera was. Amazing Thailand! I told myself I would never quote that.
Look no lights! Okay, very little lights.
Low Light capabilities
This was a no-budget shoot with Martin Landsburg. We had a very small lighting package to work with. Some tweenies, a 4 bank 4 foot kino, and a 4 bank 2 foot kino.
We shot it at T2.9 and we were underexposed by 2 stops. This is straight out of Red Alert with a s-curve. No grading. The Red Camera with the new Mysterium X would have been great to have on this one.
I can’t wait to upgrade my sensor and shoot the streets of the Bangkok and Asia. The was an Sony EX3 shooting the BTS.

So Long Sony!
Ok, not really…but for me it was certainly
a pleasant and efficient shoooting experience,
thanks to the help of top-notch owner/DIT George Yamamoto.
In appropriate applications and circumstances,
the Red Camera would be a marvellous production
choice, IMHO.
But one thing seems certain; a competent Red Digital Camera DIT is a must.
