BlogLive @ NAB Show 2008 Podcast: Ted at Red Evangelizes

Apr 16, 2008 12:00 PM

Michael Goldman finally made his way over to have a chat with Red's Ted Schilowitz, the company's self-admitted chief evangelizer, to find out what is new as Red continues its annual tradition of getting NAB-goers more than little bit excited.

Ted gave the company's POV on its new "pocket camera" called Scarlet, and other new or developing products, but he also talked about the meaning, if there is any, in the whole "is it really 4k" debate, and the company's admitted rush in the recent past to get product to market before it is fully mature. He freely admits the Red guys are "as crazy as ever," but added they are trying to be a bit more reserved regarding product beta test and release dates and promises, and other aspects of the hyping process vis a vis the development process that have, in the past, earned Red both great praise and criticism within industry circles. He also told me he expects Scarlet to eventually have applications for high-end consumers, as well as industry professionals, and a few other interesting notes. Overall, he's a very happy guy.
