RED Digital Cinema will be exhibiting at the Wildscreen Film Festival in Bristol from October 10-14. Attendees can interact with RED’s DSMC2TM cameras, including the SCARLET-W 5K, WEAPON® 6K and WEAPON 8K VV, as well as the limited edition WEAPON 8K S35 featuring RED’s newest sensor, HELIUM™. This is a unique opportunity for festival-goers to experience two industry-leading 8K sensors – RED DRAGON® VV and HELIUM S35 – side-by-side.
Additionally, RED cameras are being used to shoot ‘Flight of the Swans’ – a documentary following conservationist Sacha Dench as she flies the migration route of the Bewick’s swan in a paramotor. The ground crew for the production is using RED cameras to follow Dench as she flies from the Russian Artic through 11 countries, finally ending up in the UK, where the swans spend the winter.
The camera crew will provide a special screening at the Wildscreen Film Festival on Wednesday, October 12, at 11am in the Watershed, Cinema 2. They will show exclusive footage and beautiful imagery not yet seen by the public. The crew also will share some of their experiences along the journey, as well as behind-the-scenes insight into organizing the expedition and the equipment involved.
