Specdown: Red One vs Epic-X announced features

Comparing the differences between the existing Red One and the announced (but unshipped) Epic-X S35 camera from Red

In case you missed it, Red announced some pretty detailed specs about the new Red Epic-X camera on Friday, October 30th. Details about it are here. This is a quicky, off the cuff list comparing the specifications of the existing Red One to the proposed, but still unshipped, Epic-X 35 camera (same thing as the Epic S35, just slightly goosed).  Covers things like form factor, frame rates, resolution, codecs, accessories, etc. If I get something wrong or omit, please say so in the comments and I’ll amend ASAP. If wrong is by accident not avarice….(continues after the jump)

Red Update - revised specs for Epic-X camera

This is the “with luv” upgrade camera for existing Red One owners

Red made a slew of new announcements on Friday (Oct 30), and I’m going to be picking through it all. The most significant and detailed new announcement had to do with the specifications for the Epic/Epic-X camera, the closest successor that Red has to the Red One.

They made announcements about details nearly a year ago on December 3, 2008, and I covered it extensively here)

Article continues after the jump - pictured above is one of the millions of possible configurations of the Epic & Epic-X camera…

Top VFX/MoGraph Twitterers to Follow

Great Links to Cool VFX and Motion Graphics Served Fresh

Topher Welsh at the videohive blog writes exactly how I feel about Twitter:

“Personally I think that the whole “updating your status” part of Twitter is ridiculous.  There, I said it.  I don’t care what you are eating for dinner, or if someone is being annoying in the movie theatre.  Keep it to yourself.  The thing that keeps me addicted to Twitter is the people that tweet the cool stuff:  The behind the scenes of Terminator Salvation, The VFX breakdown of Fast and Furious 4, the new tutorial that Aharon Rabinowitz just put onto Red Giant TV.  Those are the reasons why I use Twitter, and these are the people that you should be following.”
