Premium Member Stephen Williams Posted July 4, 2008 Premium Member Posted July 4, 2008 Hi Jim, Just to make it clear I am not calling you a liar. Was Joanne authorised to sign posts 'Jim' or are you saying the email was in some way altered. If mails are sometimes signed on your behalf I can now understand why we sometimes have misunderstandings. My best, Stephen Stephen... the date on that post was Dec. 2005, a day or two after the "decision" was made to do this project. At that time, there were two of us on the RED team, Ted and I. There were three emails addresses at that time... 4K@red.com was one of them and designated as the "general" company email address. Very early in 2006, that email address was assigned to Joanne. So anything coming after Feb 2006 would have been from her. We were pretty busy at that time designing, engineering and prototyping the camera... and getting ready for our 1st NAB... that there probably wasn't enough supervision of what responses were made from that address. No excuses, just the way it was. BTW, if there is a physical address listed for RED Digital somewhere, it is not my home address... and if you call the RED phone number, I am not the one designated to answer the call. Your posts seem more and more pointed at finding some discrepancy in my presentation than actually contributing to useful info about RED. I don't quite get it. You are a smart guy with plenty to offer. We communicate behind the scenes. If you have questions or inferences like this one, they could easily be cleared up in a quick email rather than forcing me to post clarifications on this board. If I don't respond to your post, then I must be lying about 4K@red.com. Not sure why you feel it is necessary to do this. Jim
Emanuel A Guedes Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 (edited) Just as note apart, 4K@red.com and Joanne are undissociated when I placed all my reservations as customer in 2006. That one was her company's email address. EDIT -- Sounds funny some controversies. At least, to me. Edited July 7, 2008 by Emanuel A Guedes

In this case, instead ' at least, to me ', I should ask ' I'm sorry for my non-native input ' or am I wrong here?
Luke Haywood Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 I think I still have the dubious honour of being the shortest lived member of that forum. Jared had me booted and banned within 30 seconds. With the comment, "don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out." Odd thing is that I had no problem re-posting a few times using a Yahoo account and he had no idea it was me. Oh well I guess he needs better IP address blocking software. I'm sure they have snipers up on towers there 24hrs a day looking for Phil Rhodes. Geez if Phil put a toe onto their property Jared would have it machine gunned off in two seconds. Be careful Phil :D Any way we don't want another "forum war" we love our Red brothers and the Red camera. R, I was actually doing a Google search for Information on Richard's recent indy film when I came upon that very post! R Boddington's 27 minutes of fame According to the post itself, the content was deleted by Jarred Land 27 minutes after Richard signed in, but of course may have been banned much sooner! We're coming up to the second anniversary of this momentous event. So remember Halloween also celebrates the Martyrdom of Saint Boddington.:-) That whole DVXUser thread is quite surreal with the level of sycophantic excess shown. It's hilarous in places if you have the time and stomach for it. A lot of 'blasphemers' have had their posts removed entirely my the moderators, which is really amatuerish, since the software apparently then re-numbers everything making the conversation impossible to follow. Oddly, while the original posts have gone, they remain fossilized in the responses of other posters. This thread is worth another read too if you have time on your hands. I have to thank Rauiri Robinson for the phrase: "Welcome to Club Irony Bypass". I crack up every time I think of that one. You know, I think that's one of the main differences between this forum and some others I could mention: people make jokes here that are actually funny :D Oh. And I'm still waiting to see some RED footage on the big screen.
Luke Haywood Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 Sorry, that's Ruairi Robinson. I missed the 15 millisecond edit window:-)
Premium Member John Sprung Posted October 18, 2008 Premium Member Posted October 18, 2008 Oh. And I'm still waiting to see some RED footage on the big screen. I'm interested in seeing not just any Red footage, but rather something well shot. "Manure" may be the first, any idea when it'll be released? -- J.S.
Luke Haywood Posted October 18, 2008 Posted October 18, 2008 I'm interested in seeing not just any Red footage, but rather something well shot. "Manure" may be the first, any idea when it'll be released? -- J.S. IMDB just says "2009". Of course, they have to find a distributor first. I think David said something to the effect that when he finds out, so will everybody else probably. It does sound like a pretty good film, leaving aside all considerations of how it was shot. But what a masterpiece of ironic allegory. The saga of two early '60s American businessmen, approaching late middle age and facing the bleak realization that their only (and rapidly-devaluing) business skills are based entirely around three decades of marketing ... well ... bullshit! And it's shot with the RED camera. It's all there I tell you :lol:

Oh drat. I realize now that that was a quote of the same post once in part, and once in full. I also spelled your name wrong! So was it you who deleted the original post then? One thing I like about cinematography.com, what is said on this forum, STAYS on this forum. But beware, nothing is ever permanently erased on the Internet!
