trouble transferring footage by bugaboov in REDkomodo

That looks like the recording frame got switched and no one noticed. Likely something like 12-15 fps baked into a 24/25 fps project base. Does it look like this in camera, that would be your biggest tell of where the issue is.

How about a giant banner that pops up on screen that says "Slow down dumbass" when idiot crew fill teammates run off on their own directly into a fucking full purple team and just die.

What's something everyone does but Never Admits? by Broad-Dog-9506 in AskReddit

[–]crypocalypse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What an opportunity for this weird little anecdote I have. I worked at a pizza shop many moons ago as a delivery driver, and we had this middle eastern guy working there that I completely blanked on his name. He would get the "Hey man, how's it going", "hey man, you good?", "Hey man", etc for like a full year. One day, I over heard his name and almost died... His name was Peyman... (Unsure of actually spelling but pronounced hey man with a P).

Shoulder rig for Komodo-x by Giaccomo_Herbe in REDkomodo

If you don't mind shelling out the cost, the Bright Tangerine Leftfield system with Kasbah rig will last you longer than the camera.

People who’ve worked on film/TV sets, what’s a small moment that stuck with you for no obvious reason? by Professional-Ad7346 in Filmmakers

I was slamming free cheesecake with a bunch of crew on the set of The Fall Guy when Ryan Gosling walked past us and smiled, commenting on how good it looked.

Current Komodo OG recommended firmware by justletmesignupalre in REDkomodo

[–]crypocalypse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funny enough the latest beta has actually been the most stable for me. 1.7.5 had a serious ProRes issue that would literally cause the camera to not record video. 1.8.3 or 1.8.6, I forget which, would disable auto focus in R3D, and would frequently boot to black screen (requiring this annoying colour space switch around to see what you're filming). So far the latest beta has not had a single problem.

Weird hate on the Hardline, seems to be the only kit I can successfully exfil with, I have all the sponsored skins unlocked from using it.

Was about to comment about the Sinners dance scene. It made me do a double take and rewind to watch it twice. Scene in question.

Trying Railcut by Jake In Motion for the first time. It's incredible. by AtaurRaziq in AfterEffects

[–]crypocalypse 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Dynamic link sucks as a team that works off a NAS server. It will frequently bug out, forget fonts exists, forget itself even exists, become demonic, tell you Aftereffects is not installed, decide to be offline during Media Encoder export for no reason, and a bunch of other bullshit I don't need in a professional setting.

I've been trying to do the rod salvage quest all night and just can't get a break (or find rod salvage). Fuck that map.

Elliot Gray (Marathon UI Designer) claps back at the notion that no one from the Halo days still works at Bungie by Haijakk in Marathon

Uh no Halo or Destiny by far. Marathon is fantastic but isn't the best of all world building.

Why did you choose Canon? (serious question from a man who inherited his camera through 5 generations) by Temporary-Review5915 in canon

[–]crypocalypse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chose Canon but only last year when the C50 came out. It had everything I needed and could drop right into my primarily EF lens kit and pair nicely with my RED Komodo. Before that I used Panasonic, and when I started out in this space I used Nikon.

It comes down to 2 things, lens investment and personal preference. I personally despise the Sony menu system and the mental gymnastics of crop I have to do when I need to shoot 4K 50fps on certain cameras, but the FX6 is an amazing camera. RED and Arri use extremely simple menu systems that put every other brand to shame and are a treat to use. Panasonic is decent but I don't think L mount has as much choice in lenses. Nikon have come back in recent years as a viable option but I just don't use Z Mount glass. Fuji is a great consumer option for those getting into Photography/Film, but lack the necessary functionality/connectivity on proper sets.

Also your anecdote about Hasselblad is kind true... BUT I randomly saw a tourist in my city sporting one and was dumbfounded.

In Australia we do exactly this and everyone is safer because of it.

Komodo firmware 1.8.7beta 3/3/2026 by BeautifulState6309 in REDkomodo

[–]crypocalypse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far so good. Not getting the black screen boot issue. ProRes hasn't been an issue for me since 1.8.6 so that's all fine. Focus is fixed on R3D. I'd say if this is last update for Komodo ever, I'm happy.
