"Red Night at lafcpug"

*** Sold Out***

This month we are teaming with Kappa Studios and the Red LA User Group to bring you the latest and greatest in what is happening in the Red Digital Cinema world.

Igor Ridanovic, DI supervisor at Kappa Studios and co-founder of the Red User Group Los Angeles will describe the workflow for a recent feature project “Unrequited” soon to be released by Arclight. He will discuss the tips for preparing RED sequences for finishing in third party systems and more.

Chris Armstrong, Director and Red DIT, will talk about how to effectively manage and move Red R3D media from the set to the cutting room as well as on-set color checking, Red gotchas and tips.

Sean Fairburn, Emmy winning Cinematographer and early HD adopter will cover a wide range of topics from being a combat cameraman, to shooting high end commercials (Coke, Nike, Volvo), and Red 3D cinematography.

Plus, Show and Tells and Stump The Gurus and World Famous Raffle. AND there will be lots of Red Cams for you to touch and drool over in the lobby. Registration will be required for this meet.

From Gerald:
What I would like to share with the audience during show-n-Tell are three short special effect videos that I have created myself using FCP and Adobe After Effects. Total run time would be approximatley 6 mins. overall.
The first Video is a visual FX video which I created in After Effects of me as a Super Saiyan (Dragon Ball Z). It runs approximately 1 min.
The second one is a Kinetic Typography video I created using After Effects and Video Copilots "Evolution" and it runs about 2mins.
The last is a visual FX video I created called "Can You Jump". It's similar to the special effects used in the movie Hancock with Will Smith as he jumps and lands and cracks the ground. Within this same video is a short video of a song I created and edited in Final Cut Pro.
All sound effects and music in my videos were done using Logic Pro.
